Matthew Fleming

About the Instructor

Matthew Fleming is fortunate to have foreseen the possibilities of mobile before the iPhone was released to market and has now spent his entire adult career writing mobile software for Apple devices.

Years Working in iOS (iPhone Operating System)

With over 15 years experience in iOS alone, Matthew Fleming has been writing code and designing whole systems for iOS since 2008 when the first release of the iOS SDK was announced.

Years Teaching

Throughout his career, Matthew Fleming has been teaching new starters, young juniors, colleagues and has spent numerous years leading teams. As a continuous mentor it would be inaccurate to specify a set number of years teaching. Instead, it would be more accurate to recognise that some people are simply natural born leaders and dedicate extra time in their day to help others at any cost when ever required.
