About Hao

Hi, I am Hao.

I am a PhD candidate in Human-Computer Interaction at Swinburne University of Technology. In my PhD, I design and build interactive exercise technology for older adults. I have published nine peer-reviewed papers at OzCHI, IEEE, ACM and other venues.

I have taught programming at Monash University and at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. At Monash, I run weekly programming classes during semester. Before my first class, I worked through the same kinds of tasks that my students complete, so I understand the tasks from a student's point of view. I give feedback on every task and talk with students about their code. When students explain their thinking to me, we can both see what they have mastered and where more practice will help.

In Hong Kong, I taught Python to 180 undergraduates and game design to 35 undergraduates. I designed and graded course assessments. I received the Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award for my teaching in Hong Kong.

At Xiamen University, I earned a Bachelor of Engineering in Digital Media Art and a Master of Engineering in Digital Media Technology. In these degrees, I learnt programming and interaction design. I was named an Excellent Graduate for both degrees. I then worked as a software engineer and team leader at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, where I built software to control robotic arms. After my time at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I completed a Master of Philosophy in Computer Science and Engineering at The Chinese University of Hong Kong.

Outside university, I tutor game development one-on-one. I adapt each lesson to the learner's pace and learning style. I hold a current Victorian Working with Children Check. I teach in English and Mandarin.

Together, we work towards your programming goals until you can write code with confidence.

Maybe you are taking a programming unit at university or TAFE. Maybe you are preparing for VCE Software Development or Algorithmics, or learning to code from scratch. We start from where you are and what you need.

Each lesson is 60 minutes. We take one idea at a time. First, we talk through the idea and try it out together in live code. Then we apply the idea to a new problem, with you at the keyboard.

If you study programming at university or TAFE, we work through the concepts in your unit together. We practise structuring, testing and debugging code side by side. For assessed tasks, we unpack the task requirements and practise the required skills on similar problems.

If you enjoy games, we build your own 2D and 3D games together in Unity and C#, and you learn to program along the way. Every game lesson ends with something new that you can play.

For VCE students, we plan our practice around the VCE Software Development and Algorithmics study designs.

We meet online by default. We can also meet in person in Melbourne's inner east, with a parent at home for students under 18.
