IGCSE Computer Science Year 11
Mr. Mohamed
Welcome to the 2023-2024 academic year
My name is Mohamed Abdi and I am currently teaching computer science and ICT. I am passionate about the subject and I cannot wait to instill that passion to my students. We live in an increasingly digital era. None of the technological progress would have happened without Computer Science and Programming. Programmers find solutions to problems using computers. It will definitely help students with their problem solving skills and will definitely show their creativity side....
"The best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to study great programs that other people have written. " BILL GATES, Programmers at Work
Steve Jobs: “Everybody should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think"
