Why You Should Study Computer Science GCSE

Computer science is increasingly becoming an essential part of modern life. From driving the development of new technologies through to being able to navigate and use a range of complex software programs, having a good understanding of computer science can open up a huge range of career opportunities in the future – or even just give you a better understanding of how the world around us works.

With a GCSE in computer science, you will be in a perfect position to advance to A Level study, and beyond to a degree and a career. This is a subject that lends itself to a huge range of possible future paths, so having a good grounding in the basics can really help set you up for success. We do have A level computer science tutors available if you do decide to advance to further study.

Some of the main careers that you may explore with a computer science GCSE include working as a coder or software developer, a systems analyst or designer, or even a database manager. Other individuals find themselves in IT support or management roles, as network engineers, or even as instructional designers.

My Learning Room is so much more than just a tutoring company! The one on one service is fantastic and the best experience I've encountered across the many tutoring companies we have tried (and not made much progress with). We were concerned about our son's progress at school and wanted to give him some extra help to ensure he can achieve his potential and open a few doors. We felt his school wasn't offering enough as he's a bright boy and capable of more. After failing to be convinced by a few other companies including a local tutor, we came across My Learning Room. We initially started with online GCSE Maths lessons after a very encouraging chat with Amer who was great to deal with. She listened and it was clear she really cared right from the start. The level of tutoring was impressive and we saw improvements within a short space of time. Knowledge on the curriculum was excellent and they focussed on key areas combined with tailored exam practise. We added online GCSE English and Science lessons and again the quality of online tutoring was clear to see, all tutors were very personable and helped build my son's confidence along with his knowledge of these subjects. A patient approach is what was required along with some key advice and techniques; My Learning Room delivered this exceptionally well. It wasn't long before his progress was noticed at school and he was placed in a higher set. My son achieved 8's & 9's across the board. We were simply overjoyed! I genuinely feel this wouldn't have been possible without Amer and the team. We were given advice on further studies, subjects to take and the grades required going forward. My son's confidence has grown so much over these last 2 years and we no longer worry as much as we used to. It was truly a blessing to come across these guys and the consistent positive feedback from the school, exam results and general progress in him as an individual has been such a bright note over these last couple of years. Thank you so much to everyone at My Learning Room. You will not be forgotten and we will keep in touch.

Great company for anyone who needs that little extra help. My son was predicted a 4 at GCSE Maths, we started the tutoring once a week in December and he received his results 2 weeks ago and got a 6! His tutor was a university student so quite close to him in age and very relatable. Would highly recommend My Learning Room, they are extremely flexible, professional but also personable and according to my son quite fun. Thank you so much, if we need any additional tutoring during his 6th form we will be back.

My son was very much struggling with his maths preparation approaching his GCSE’s. I was extremely worried although Amerpreet was absolutely amazing. Her calming approach was extremely beneficial and she has ignited a drive in my son that I’m sure will lead to amazing grades!
