Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for online programming tutors Tutors at Spires Online Tutors

Why study programming?

Programming is at the heart of computer science. Everything a computer does, it does by executing programs. To be able to control a computer, you need to know how it works from the inside out. Therefore, studying programming is essential to understanding how computers work and what they are capable of. There are many reasons to learn programming, but one of the best is that programming is a creative and fun problem-solving activity. You will be able to design well-crafted solutions to problems with different challenges, and in the end, you will see your work come to life before your eyes.

Why is programming important and worth learning?

What university degrees is programming useful for?

If you know how to understand and write computer programs, then your understanding of computers can be useful for a number of college degrees ranging from computer science to mathematics, business, finance, science, and others. Computer programming is fundamental to solving problems with computers in a variety of fields and can be used in all sorts of areas. Software engineering and computer programming are both degrees that prepare you for a career in programming or developing software. These degrees are often taken by people who want to become programmers, developers, or IT specialists.

What careers can a programming degree lead to?

Studying programming can prepare you well for a career as a computer programmer or software developer. It is also one of the best ways to become a good operations manager or technical consultant. And it’s not hard to see why – once you know how computers work, what they are capable of, and how programs run on them, your overall understanding of technology will be much greater, which will help you in most computer-related jobs. Programming is a fundamental skill for all software developers, and some programmers often say that once you know how to program, everything else becomes easier. In the real world, most companies require their employees to have knowledge of several programming languages or at least a basic knowledge of one or two. Learning how to do programming benefits you tremendously if you are interested in learning coding. You can expect a good ratio of overlap between both subjects if you study them together. Thus, a degree in computer programming can also help in coding. This can make for a very solid foundation for a career as a web developer at a leading organisation. Programming is one of those things you should study, not with the expectation that it will necessarily lead to a career in software development, but because it trains your brain to think logically and solve problems. This skill could come in handy regardless of your future career choice, and it’s never too late to learn it.

How does programming help in a non-computer-related career?

In today’s highly competitive and technologically advanced world, more and more employers are looking for applicants who have a broad range of skills. Even for a non-technical position, applicants need to develop some technical skills to be comfortable in the workplace. Any job that involves computers could benefit from programming skills, even if only in a small way. Employers are looking for candidates who are not only experts in their field but also have a general knowledge of various fields, including computer science and technology. This means that if you know how to write programs, you will have a competitive advantage over other applicants, making you even more desirable to potential employers.

How expert tutoring can help you

Teachers will take the time to assess your starting point and then develop a personalised syllabus to work towards your objectives. Online classes will focus on your areas of weakness and on developing the confidence you need to achieve your goals. Lessons will also push students in areas that they are already comfortable in, encouraging constant improvement and developing positive learning habits.

Why choose Spires’ online computer programming tutors?

We only hire 4% of the teachers that apply to Spires, and they are all professional and experienced school and university-level educators. Many have qualifications from top universities and institutions in the UK, USA, and around the world. All have a Ph.D., MSc, Ma, BSc, or Ba in their chosen field. We have a lot of repeat students, and you can check out the high star ratings our clients leave. Because tutors set their rates via an auction system, our prices are more competitive than many other companies. Our online classroom is stable and fun to learn through. It has an interactive whiteboard, and students can access recordings of classes at any time. They use webcam video chat when being taught. Spires deals with all of the matching, scheduling, payments, and administration. We take all of the hassles out of organising support and allow students to focus purely on learning.

How does Spires’ online tutoring work?

You can find a professional tutor in four easy steps:

  3. Have your face-to-face class. This can be done whenever and wherever you are. It’s all online – neither you nor the tutor travels!
  4. Replay the classes afterward for any missed information at your own pace and convenience.

Does it matter if I have programming tutors near me?

No, it doesn’t! It’s all done online whenever and wherever you are. All you have to do is pick your ideal mentor and speak to them to arrange the best time for you to have video lessons. Save yourself the hassles of long-distance travels just to attend a class and book an online lesson with one. It doesn’t matter at all if they are miles and miles (or kilometres and kilometres) away from you!

Who will my tutor be?

This is all up to you. You have a huge choice of online programming tutors to choose from. You can look through our member tutor profiles, check student reviews and bids, their qualifications and backgrounds, hourly rates, hours taught, other subjects they teach – and even check out if they have many repeat students. Then, communicate with your favourites to see if they are right for your needs and learning style. You can have a free video call by webcam, usually over zoom. Then you pick the person you’d like to help with your studies and schedule your first webcam lesson!

How many programming tutors are available to give private lessons?

We currently have over 40 programming tutors with academic and professional coding experience specialising in a wide range of topics from GCSEs to postgraduate support and everything in between.

What qualifications does a programming tutor need?

All of our tutors must hold at least a Bachelor’s degree and have tutoring experience. Most have higher degrees on top of that, in specialised areas such as Master’s degrees or PhDs. All of our tutors are DBS checked or have had equivalent background checks.

What is the role of programming tutors online?

It is their responsibility to guide you to understand the subject you have chosen. Using their expertise in the chosen topic and their teaching experience, they will help you understand, analyze, and use the content of the lessons to apply at a later date, whether it is at your chosen university, your career, or in your day-to-day life. Computer programming is an ever-changing subject, and it is important that you work with someone who is an expert in the latest programming languages and techniques. Online programming tutors have the skills and knowledge to help you navigate through the complexities of programming and guide you towards success.

How much does a private programming tutor cost per hour?

Expert online computer programming tuition is priced per hour and according to level:
  • School level: For Primary school, Secondary and Higher prices start at €25/hr
  • University level: For Undergraduate and Postgraduate tuition, prices start at €35/hr
  • Professional level: For Chartered Qualifications and Admissions Test tutoring, prices start at €45/hr

The average price per hour ranges based on the tutors’ experience, expertise, and the student’s level.

How much is a programming tutor per hour in London?

The average tutor price per hour is £40/$53/€45 per hour depending on a teacher’s experience and the student’s level of study. This is higher than other areas in the UK due to the increased living costs that come with London life.

What happens when I send a message to your online computer science professors?

Once you’ve used the Find A Tutor feature to find your perfect online computer programming tutor, you can contact them with any questions you might have and even meet in advance. A tutor should respond to you within 24 hours with an answer and the hours they are available. If your selected teacher isn’t able to fit you into their schedule, we will recommend others that fit your specifications. After a tutor replies, you can then schedule a free webcam meeting, and if you are satisfied, you can go ahead and schedule your first lesson!
