Information About Ben - Norwich trainer

Personal Description:

I am a full-stack software engineer with extensive experience in developing software using a range of programming languages and IT techniques. My expertise lies in JavaScript, with a strong focus on modern frameworks like React and Next.js.
In my professional role, I work across both backend and frontend development, as well as building applications for the app store. In my spare time, I actively pursue personal projects in Python, PHP, and JavaScript, broadening my skills and exploring new technologies.

For the past eight months, I have been developing a Vinted-style marketplace for board games, applying both frontend and backend techniques, including SQL for database management. I am passionate about using my knowledge and experience to teach and support others in their journey to mastering IT and software development.

Training Experience:

I have gained valuable experience by mentoring colleagues with less technical expertise and supporting fellow students during my education. In my role as a software engineer, I have guided teammates through both frontend and backend development, helping them grasp concepts like API integration, database management, and modern web technologies. My approach focuses on breaking down complex topics, offering clear explanations, and providing hands-on support to ensure practical understanding. I enjoy creating a collaborative and supportive learning environment where others can build confidence and improve their skills.

Training Approach:

My approach to IT training is hands-on, practical, and tailored to each individual’s learning style. I believe that understanding the "why" behind concepts is just as important as learning the "how." By focusing on real-world applications, I aim to make complex topics more accessible and engaging. I encourage an interactive learning environment where students can ask questions freely, tackle challenges with confidence, and build problem-solving skills that will serve them throughout their careers. My goal is to equip learners not just with knowledge, but with the ability to apply it effectively in real-world scenarios.
