About Dr Tong
I’m a Computational Social Scientist with over 20 years of experience in Higher Education, as well as an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner. I’m also an experienced researcher and author, having published 10 books and authored more than 50 academic and professional articles.
I teach data literacy, AI literacy, AI ethics and responsible practice, data analysis and visualisation, data analytics, data mining, data science, Python, research skills and cloud computing. I support learners at all levels—from complete beginners and non-technical professionals to university students and more technically focused learners.
My approach combines technical knowledge, research expertise, critical thinking and real-world application. I don’t just teach how to use tools—I help learners understand and explore data, identify patterns and insights, communicate findings through effective visualisations, and critically evaluate evidence. I also help learners question AI and analytical outputs, recognise limitations and bias, and use data and technology responsibly and effectively.
Lessons are tailored to your existing knowledge, interests and goals. Whether you want to build confidence with data and AI, strengthen your research skills, learn how to analyse and visualise data, explore data mining techniques, develop practical Python and data science skills, understand responsible AI, or learn the foundations of cloud computing, I focus on making complex ideas clear, accessible and practical.

My teaching approach
I offer personalised Python and Artificial Intelligence (AI) lessons for complete beginners, students, researchers and professionals.
As a Computational Social Scientist with over 20 years of experience in Higher Education, I understand that learners come with different goals, backgrounds and levels of technical confidence.
My teaching approach is practical, engaging and learner-focused. I combine clear explanations with hands-on exercises, live demonstrations, real-world examples and guided projects. My aim is not simply to show you how to use Python or AI tools, but to help you understand how they work, when to use them, how to evaluate their outputs critically, and how to apply what you learn confidently and responsibly.
You will be encouraged to ask questions, experiment and solve problems. I aim to make complex technical concepts accessible without oversimplifying them, so that you develop both practical skills and the confidence to work independently.
What I teach
Lessons can be tailored to individual topics or organised into a structured programme based on your goals.
Python for Beginners
If you have never programmed before, we can start from the very beginning. Topics can include:
- Getting started with Python
- Variables and data types
- Operators and expressions
- Conditional statements
- Loops
- Functions
- Lists, dictionaries and other data structures
- Reading and working with data
- Debugging and problem-solving
- Writing clear and reusable code
No previous coding experience is required.
Python for Data Analysis
For learners who want to use Python to work with data, lessons can include:
- Importing and working with datasets
- Data cleaning and preparation
- Exploring and summarising data
- Data manipulation
- Data analysis using Python
- Data visualisation
- Interpreting analytical results
- Working with real-world datasets
- Developing practical data projects
For students and researchers, lessons can also explore how Python can support research and computational analysis.
Artificial Intelligence & AI Literacy
You do not need to be a programmer to learn about AI.
I offer AI lessons for learners who want to understand what AI is, how contemporary AI systems work, what they can and cannot do, and how to use them effectively and responsibly.
Topics can include:
- Foundations of Artificial Intelligence
- AI literacy
- Generative AI
- Large Language Models (LLMs)
- Understanding tools such as ChatGPT
- Effective prompting and working with generative AI
- Evaluating AI-generated information
- Hallucinations, reliability and limitations
- Bias and fairness
- AI ethics and responsible AI
- Privacy and data considerations
- Critical thinking when using AI
- Responsible use of AI in education, research and professional settings
- Social and organisational implications of AI
As a Computational Social Scientist, I bring both technical and social perspectives to AI. This means we can explore not only how AI technologies work and how to use them, but also their limitations and their wider ethical, social and organisational implications.
Teaching methodology
Every lesson is tailored to your existing knowledge, interests and goals. Depending on what you want to achieve, sessions may include:
- Step-by-step explanations
- Live coding and demonstrations
- Hands-on Python exercises
- Real-world examples and datasets
- Guided projects
- AI demonstrations and practical exercises
- Critical evaluation of AI outputs
- Problem-solving activities
- Personalised guidance and mentoring
- Regular exercises and constructive feedback
The emphasis is on learning by doing while understanding the concepts behind what you are doing.
Typical lesson length
Most lessons are 1–2 hours, depending on your goals and experience.
You can book an individual session to focus on a particular topic or challenge, or we can develop a structured series of lessons that progressively builds your knowledge and skills.
Where appropriate, we can also work on a practical project over several sessions, allowing you to apply what you learn and develop confidence through experience.
Qualifications & experience
I am a Computational Social Scientist with over 20 years of experience in Higher Education and an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.
I am also an experienced researcher and author, having published 10 books and more than 50 academic and professional articles.
My Higher Education background has given me extensive experience in teaching, research, mentoring and supporting learners at different levels.
My interdisciplinary background enables me to connect technical skills with the wider research, social, organisational and ethical contexts in which Python, data and AI are used.
My areas of expertise relevant to these lessons include Python, Artificial Intelligence, AI Literacy, AI Ethics and Responsible Practice, Data Literacy, Data Analysis and Visualisation, Data Science, Computational Research and Cloud Computing.
Who my lessons are for
My lessons are suitable for:
- Complete beginners with no previous coding experience
- People who want to learn Python from scratch
- Learners who want to use Python for data analysis
- Undergraduate and postgraduate students
- Researchers and academics
- Professionals who want to understand and use AI effectively
- Non-technical professionals who want to improve their AI literacy
- Career changers developing Python, data or AI skills
- Learners interested in the ethical and responsible use of AI
- Anyone who wants to become more confident working with Python and AI
You do not need a technical or programming background to begin.
If you are completely new to Python, we can start with your first line of code and progress at a pace that works for you.
If your interest is AI rather than programming, we can focus on AI literacy, generative AI, responsible use and critical evaluation without requiring you to learn Python first.
If you already have some experience, lessons can be tailored to more advanced applications of Python, data analysis and AI.
Whether your goal is to learn Python, analyse data, understand generative AI, use AI more effectively in your studies or profession, or develop a deeper understanding of responsible AI, lessons will be tailored to where you are now and what you want to achieve.
