Computer Science IGCSE Cambridge online classes

Expert online Computer Science tuition for Cambridge International (CAIE) IGCSE — covering every topic from the 0478 syllabus with exam-focused teaching.

How we teach Computer Science

Cambridge IGCSE Computer Science (0478) introduces both halves of the subject — the theory of how computers work and the practical craft of writing programs — through a multiple-choice paper and written papers split by Core and Extended depth. We teach it so the concepts and the coding reinforce each other.

From data representation and hardware to networking, databases and the development lifecycle, the syllabus builds a solid technical foundation, while algorithm design and programming fundamentals develop genuine problem-solving skill. We give particular attention to writing and tracing pseudocode and to the security and ethics issues the specification raises.

Sessions are live and small, pitched to each student’s tier, with plenty of practice turning a problem into a working algorithm.

Frequently asked questions

Which syllabus code does this Cambridge IGCSE Computer Science class follow?

We teach the official Cambridge specification, syllabus code 0478, working directly from the specification document — the same content your child follows at school.

How much does IGCSE Computer Science tuition cost?

Group classes are ₨ 19,000 per month and 1-to-1 lessons are ₨ 3,500 per class. Discounts apply for 3 or more subjects (20% off) and for up to 2 siblings (10% off).

Are classes live or recorded?

Live interactive and recorded. Your child attends scheduled classes with the teacher, asks questions in real time, and gets written homework that is set and marked every week along with the live class recording.

Can students outside Pakistan join Computer Science classes?

Yes — we teach students in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, the UK and beyond. Gulf time zones are one to two hours behind Pakistan, so after-school slots line up naturally.
