Programming Starter Kit | Coding Mini-Projects — Websites and Applications

From 48 € /h

Hello - Servus - Greetings ... Future Silicon Whisperer ...

Welcome to this recreational programming class for absolute beginners (but lifelong learners!) who want to take the first small steps into the domain of coding ... and a giant leap into the realm of software.

But no need to fret. You are in safe hands with me — someone who has being tinkering with the computational engineering sciences for well over a decade, publishing novel research, presenting conference talks, and, of course, tutoring curious minds.

It is always rewarding to see a tutee go from building simple websites to developing complex artificial intelligence applications, often in a few short months, which motivates me to continue delivering and refining this course.

For me, our computers are virtual laboratories in which software can be our digital apparatus. The true power of our electronic devices can be unlocked once we become literate in the languages that a computer can understand. This process can be challenging; but it is ultimately a fruitful endeavour.

But before you dive in, you might have a few questions; here is a preemptive measure to answer the common ones:

- - - - - - - -

{Q} I work in the <x> industry/business. So why should I start programming?
{A} Programming skills are becoming increasingly essential in our modern world. Coding is a contemporary craft — one that can be used to solve technical problems, innovate new technologies or even express artistic ideas. (At the very least code can be used automate boring and repetitive tasks, thereby saving considerable time and money!)

{Q} I am <n> years old. Is it too early/late to start coding?
{A} Start coding whenever you feel comfortable and at your own pace ... and you will quickly realise that age is just an unsigned int. That is to say, no prior knowledge will be assumed in this class, and mature students are more than welcome.

{Q} How are sessions organised?
{A} We will have a video call/meeting in which we share our screens over a one- or two-hour period. There will be lots of typing (mostly on your end) but also custom notes and additional resources will be prepared for you.

{Q} How is the syllabus structured?
{A} As a gentle but comprehensive introduction into software carpentry, a tentative outline would involve a four-part sequence:
- Part[0] = Foundational Programming Mechanics
- Part[1] = Coding Best Practices
- Part[2] = Tools of the Trade
- Part[3] = Software Project Lifecycle

- - - - - - - -

The course can, and will, be tailored around your goals and needs; so do feel free to get in touch to brainstorm something that works for you.

Here is to your continued success.

Extra information

- Please use a computer/laptop with a reliable internet connection as well as video-call/screen-sharing application (e.g. Zoom)
- All other custom notes and additional resources will provided to you for free

Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning.

This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied.

As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others.

I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly.

Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

Python is the most in-demand programming language in the world right now — and one of the easiest to learn with the right guidance.
Whether you've never written a line of code or you're a student who needs to pass a programming course, this is a practical, no-fluff introduction that gets you writing real code from session one.
What we can cover depending on your goals:

Python fundamentals: variables, loops, functions, data structures
- Object-oriented programming (OOP)
- Data manipulation with pandas and NumPy
- Introduction to machine learning with scikit-learn
- Database management with SQL
- C and Java upon request
- MATLAB and R available for engineering/science students

Why learn with me?
I'm not a student teaching on the side — I'm a professional engineer who uses Python daily for data analysis, modeling, and automation. I know exactly which concepts matter in the real world and which ones you can skip for now.
Sessions are 100% personalized: I adapt the pace, the examples, and the exercises to your background and your goal — whether that's passing your university exam, building a project, or landing a job.

I teach Python specifically for finance and data applications - the kind used in economics, business analytics, and quantitative programs. This isn't a general "learn to code" course; it's built around real financial data, benchmarking, and the workflows you'll actually use in coursework or early career work.

Topics include:
Python fundamentals through a finance lens (data structures, functions, control flow).
Working with financial data and datasets.
Performance benchmarking and writing efficient code.
Applying concepts from Hilpisch's Python for Finance.

These courses are part of a structured and progressive training in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) with JavaScript, designed for beginner or intermediate developers who want to understand in depth how the language works, write clearer, more maintainable code and prepare themselves calmly for modern frameworks like React ⚛️.

Object-Oriented Programming is often perceived as complex or abstract.

My goal is simple: to make it logical, concrete, and immediately applicable.

🎯 Training Objectives

Upon completion of this training, you will be able to:

Understanding what Object-Oriented Programming really is (and when to use it)
Create and manipulate objects in JavaScript in a clean and efficient way
Use ES6 classes, constructors, and methods with confidence
Mastering this, the prototype, and the instantiation logic
Apply encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism without confusion
Avoiding common mistakes made by OOP beginners
Structure your JavaScript code like a professional developer

📖 Training Plan – Object-Oriented Programming in JavaScript
1. Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming 🧠
Understanding the concept, objectives and benefits of OOP.
2. Procedural Programming vs. OOP
Why unstructured code quickly becomes unmanageable.
3. Objects in JavaScript
Properties, methods and representation of the real world.
4. The keyword this
Understanding the execution context (often poorly understood).
5. Limitations of simple objects
Why duplicating code is a bad idea.
6. Constructive functions
Create multiple objects from the same model.
7. The keyword new
What it's actually doing under the hood.
8. The prototype
Sharing methods and memory optimization.
9. ES6 Classes
Modern syntax and best practices.
10. The builder
Proper initialization of objects.
11. Data Encapsulation
Protect the internal state of objects.
12. Inheritance between classes
Reusing code intelligently.
13. The keyword super
Communication between parent and child in the classroom.
14. Polymorphism
The same behavior, several forms.
15. Composition vs. Inheritance
Choosing the right architecture.
16. Best practices in OOP
Write readable, scalable, and maintainable code.
17. Common mistakes made by beginners
Pitfalls to absolutely avoid.
18. Guided practical exercise
Creation of a concrete class (product, user, etc.).
19. Assessment Quiz (Multiple Choice Questions)
To validate the actual understanding of the concepts.

🛠️ Teaching method: Understand before writing

This training program is based on a progressive and pragmatic approach:
Clear and illustrated explanations
Concrete examples from real projects
Simple but effective exercises
Constant questioning to avoid rote learning
Adaptation to the learner's level and pace
Here, we don't "recite OOP" — we understand it.

🚀 Learner's result

At the end of the training, you will not only know how to write a JavaScript class.
You will know:

1- Why does it exist?
2- When to use it
3- and when not to use it

You will leave with:
a solid understanding of OOP
a cleaner and more professional code
an ideal foundation for learning React, Node.js or any other modern framework
