Python fundamentals: from installation to some exercises

From 29 € /h

We will go through the fundamentals of Python coding language, I will explain to you its grammar and usage, providing useful examples from the most popular packages.

Do you have any specific requirement (e.g. priority on data analysis, data visualization, data management or cleaning up,...)? Just notify me of that and I'll do my best to meet your requirements : )

Level: from starters to experienced. I've already had experience in teaching both experienced and novice coders.

Extra information

We could be working with online and shared resources so that no software installation would be needed from yours. However, it's best to start with application and software installed on your computer, but I will tell you more about this : )

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.

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.

I teach Python, C and C++ one to one, online or in person around Birmingham.

Most of my students fall into one of three groups. Some are at GCSE or A-Level and need to get comfortable with a language before an exam or a coursework deadline. Some are at university, usually on an engineering or computing degree, and have hit something specific that isn't clicking: pointers, memory, recursion, object orientation, or a project that won't compile. And some are adults starting from nothing, often because work has started asking them to automate things.

Lessons are built around code you can run. I'll ask what you're working on and where you got stuck, then we write something small together, break it on purpose, and work out what the error message is actually telling you. Reading error messages properly is half of programming and almost nobody teaches it.

Areas I cover regularly:

Python from the basics through functions, data structures, file handling, object orientation and libraries like NumPy and Pandas
C and C++, including the parts that cause most of the trouble: pointers, memory management, structs, classes and compilation
GCSE and A-Level Computer Science across all exam boards, including pseudocode, trace tables and written paper technique
A-Level NEA projects and university coursework, plus debugging sessions and code review
Embedded C for Arduino, ESP32 and microcontroller projects, which is the work I do professionally

After each lesson I send written notes covering what we did, worked through step by step, so you have something to revise from later rather than trying to remember what was on screen.

First session is free and lasts 30 minutes. We use it to work out what you need and whether I'm the right person for it. If I'm not, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.

Message me with what you're studying and what's giving you trouble, and I'll tell you honestly how I'd approach it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.

Learn Python by building something you’ll actually use

Ever wanted to code but had no idea where to begin? You’re in the right place. In these relaxed, one-on-one lessons, you’ll go from zero to writing real programs, with no experience required.

Together, we’ll choose a project that fits your interests. Maybe it’s a video game you want to build or a quiz to challenge your friends, a chart built from your own spreadsheet, or a script that takes over a boring, repetitive task. Along the way, you’ll pick up the essentials (variables, loops, functions) and learn to read error messages without panic, so you can change your code with confidence.

Where you can go next

AI-assisted coding: Use tools like ChatGPT to brainstorm, decode errors, and improve your code, while learning to test its suggestions and explain how the final result works.
Machine learning: Train a simple model on a real dataset and see how well it predicts.
Your own project: Bring an idea from school, work, or a hobby, and we’ll break it into steps you can build at your own pace.

Your instructor

I’m an engineer with a master’s degree from Nagoya University and research experience in applied AI and computer vision. I explain every concept in plain language, then give you time to try it yourself with live feedback, so you’re never stuck alone.

Ready to start?

Send me a quick message and let's do your first coding project together.

Is your code not doing what you want it to? Are you learning Python but just copying and pasting without really understanding?

Loops, functions, algorithms, data structures... Behind these intimidating concepts lie simple, visual ideas. My goal: to help you understand them, not just apply them.

These tools may seem difficult at first, but they make perfect sense once you visualize them in practice: seeing a loop run, a variable change, a list fill up. That’s the level I’d like to help you reach, using diagrams, analogies, and programs we’ll build together, line by line.

I offer computer science lessons (Python and other languages), from middle school through college, to help you:
- overcome obstacles and regain confidence,
- prepare for your exams (Brevet, Baccalaureate, midterms, entrance exams, NSI),
- make progress on your projects: lab assignments, scripts, games, digital projects...

Each lesson is tailored to your needs: we’ll go over the tricky parts, code together, and I’ll teach you methods to become self-sufficient.

Message me to schedule your first lesson: let’s make the abstract clear!

High School/Middle School:
- Private lessons: 25 €/h
- Group lessons: 40 €/h

College/University:
