Computer Science Educator · AI Consultant

Computer Science Education. Beyond the Classroom.

I prepare students for IB, AP, and IGCSE Computer Science examinations, and work with schools on AI adoption, curriculum development, and teacher training. Both draw on seventeen years of teaching Computer Science in international schools, at Robert College Istanbul and the International School of Stuttgart.

// about

Hi, I'm Muhammet.

I started teaching Computer Science in 2009 at Robert College in Istanbul, one of Turkey's most selective schools. Over fourteen years, I built CS programmes, coached robotics teams, and learned how to make abstract ideas land with teenagers who thought they weren't "computer people." In 2023, I moved to the International School of Stuttgart, where I've taught IB DP CS, AP Computer Science, and MYP, and built a Robotics & AI Club from scratch.

Every area of the work outside the classroom connects back to something I have been thinking about inside it for seventeen years: how do students and institutions actually learn and change? Curriculum design, AI adoption, and robotics coaching are different applications of the same question.

// why work with me

Grounded in seventeen years of teaching in international schools.

Everything I offer, for students and schools alike, comes from direct classroom experience across two countries and three international programmes.

Classroom Authority

I teach what I consult on. When I advise a school on AI integration or CS curriculum, it comes from seventeen years of doing exactly that in international classrooms, at Robert College Istanbul and the International School of Stuttgart.

Technical Depth

I implement what I recommend. Whether it is a custom AI agent, automated workflows for school administration, or a robotics curriculum, I can move from strategy to working software without involving a third party.

Curriculum Expertise

IB, AP, IGCSE. I know these programmes from the inside: the assessment criteria, the internal assessments, the examiner expectations. Sessions are structured around what the exam actually rewards.

Independent Perspective

No vendor relationships, no software commissions, no referral arrangements. When I recommend a tool or an approach, it is because it fits the school's actual situation.

Sessions are online, one-to-one, with a shared code editor. The first session is a diagnostic. We look at where you are, what the exam expects, and where the gap is.

// working with schools

AI and CS for schools.

Most schools have made AI a priority. The harder question is what that looks like in practice: which tools, which workflows, which training, and how to implement it in a way that changes what actually happens in classrooms.

AI Integration Consulting

Strategy, practical training, and curriculum integration, designed around how your school actually works.

  • AI integration at the curriculum level, across subjects and year groups
  • School-wide AI policy design and implementation guidance
  • Vendor-neutral advice, no reseller kickbacks
School leaders and curriculum teams

Teacher Training: Build Your Own AI Agents

Hands-on training where teachers build a working assistant for their own subject and workflow, rather than a tour of someone else's tools.

  • Starts from a real task each teacher already does every week
  • Teachers finish with something running, not a slide deck
  • No prior coding experience needed
Teaching staff and department heads

Custom AI Tools & Agents

Custom tools designed around your school's actual administrative and pedagogical workflows.

  • Administrative automation that saves real hours
  • Student-facing tools and assistants
  • Teacher-facing tools that reduce administrative overhead
