Computer Science, Programming, Mathematics Tutoring

I am offering private computer science and mathematics for interview preparation, SATs, GREs and AP tests, and for anybody who'd like to get a head start learning to program before college or as a career switch.

About Me:

I'm a PhD student at ETH Zürich, specializing in AI and Machine Learning. Here I've been a teaching assistant for discrete math for computer scientists, reliable artificial intelligence and software architecture and engineering.

I have a bachelors in mathematics and computer science and a masters in computer science from CMU, the top university in the world for computer science. There I was the sole teaching assistant for complexity theory taught by the Turing Award winner Manuel Blum, and for formal languages automata and computability, and for computational discrete math, and for algorithm design and complexity. Here, my research was on programming language design, and thus I am proficient at using and teaching any programming language.

I've also worked as a software engineer at Apple and Google in silicon valley, and built and sold a startup.

Extra information

1. I recommend bringing a laptop preinstalled with Unix (linux or osx).
2. One hour is the minimum time to get anything useful out of tutoring like this. I'm happy to schedule back-to-back hours as well.

MATLAB programming with PhD student in Geophysics with 7+ years of experience
Hi! Welcome to my class on Matlab programming! As a PhD student in Geophysics my main tool is my computer. In order to do science one needs to know how to program. I often use Matlab in order to analyze data, run numerical models, plot results and much more. So, let's embark on the journey of learning Matlab and explore its diverse capabilities together! For beginners: I have designed it for absolute beginners to become at ease with the language within 5 sessions of 1h. Message me to know the 5 classes curriculum and I will be more than happy to share it with you! For intermediate users: If you already know the basics of Matlab but want to go more in-depth on certain packages this is the right place! Message me and we can discuss what your needs are!

Python for Kids - Learn Computer Programming
Why learn computer programming? Programming encourages creativity, reasoning, and problem solving. The programmer has the opportunity to create something from scratch, use logic to transform programming constructs into a form that the computer can execute, and when things don't go quite as planned, use their problem-solving skills to figure out what's wrong. Programming is fun, sometimes challenging, and sometimes frustrating—yes, really—and the skills you learn through it are useful in both school and work... even if your future career has nothing to do with computer science!

Tom
Mathematics, Programming and Engineering for all levels

Eugene
Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Programming
Mostly, my teaching is concentrated not on exam preparation, which is also possible, but on leading a person through the path of science, showing its hidden beauty and, hopefully, helping him/her to fall in love with the subject. Note about math and physics: I am more oriented on theory. My main goal is not to teach how to solve particular problems (which is also a very important skill to obtain), but to explain the logical chain of thoughts that led to the development of the whole field. In other words, I am leading a person step-by-step to a full understanding of everything that is going on in every equation and idea. Unfortunately, I don't speak German, only English, and Russian.

Web development full stack / frontend / backend / hosting
I will teach you how to develop your own web applications, we will start with HTML and CSS, later we will learn Javascript, PHP, MYSQL and AJAX. We will not follow a fixed plan, we will expand on what you can do if you want and otherwise everything will be designed according to your preferences. If you don't want to look at a topic, it will be left out and if you are particularly interested in a topic then we will look at it. The following applies here: everything is for the benefit of the student.

Computer Lessons, Programming Lessons, Computer Basics
I am a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree holder. Currently I am working as Software Lead Test Engineer at vSens Gmbh. Although I work in the field of information technology I am very interested in imparting the IT knowledge I have learned to others. Information technology has become an essential part of our lives in the present era. So it is very important to learn and keep it from the youngest to the oldest. Information Technology is an Ocean It is not enough for us to simply learn it, I will teach others from my experience how to put it into practice and learn it easily and understandably. I will teach you about the computer basics (for ex. What is the computer, About the computer components etc...), about computer softwares and how to use it (for ex. Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Access etc...) and computer programming languages(C++, Java, C#, Python etc..). You can use the programming I teach to create the software you need yourself. I will definitely help those who have the desire to create software like that. I am ready to clarify your doubts regarding information technology as well.

Sébastien
Private lessons in science (Maths, Physics, Computer Science)
It is with pleasure that I offer courses in all scientific fields until the last year of maturity (business school and general culture included). I move willingly in the inhabitant. We can also see each other in a cafe. I travel regularly between Geneva, Coppet and Zurich.
