Simon was awarded the Kavli Education Medal by The Royal Society in 2020 for his contribution to Computer Science Education.

Perfect! Simon is a very experienced tutor. He guided my son to complete his CS NEA project under great time pressure. I was very impressed by how Simon helped Benjamin to set priorities and to regain confidence to complete the project independently. Highly recommended!
