About Me

Hello! My name is Sinthuja, and I have over 7 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and am currently pursuing a Joint Master’s degree in Computer Science in Switzerland.

I enjoy helping students understand concepts rather than simply memorizing them. My teaching style is patient, supportive, and tailored to each student’s learning pace. Whether you’re a beginner learning programming for the first time or a university student preparing for exams, I aim to make every lesson clear, interactive, and practical.

I can teach subjects such as Java, Python, web development, databases, software engineering, algorithms, object-oriented programming, and basic computer science concepts. I also enjoy helping students with assignments, projects, interview preparation, and coding best practices.

My lessons are structured according to each student’s goals. I explain concepts step by step, provide practical examples, and encourage students to solve problems independently while offering guidance whenever needed. I believe that building confidence is just as important as building technical skills.

I welcome school students, university students, and adult learners who want to improve their programming skills or begin their journey in computer science. My goal is to create a friendly, encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making progress with confidence.

I look forward to helping you achieve your learning goals

Computer programming is the craft of writing useful, maintainable, and extensible source code which can be interpreted or compiled by a computing system to perform a meaningful task.

I have 7 years experience in computer programing. Together we will learn how to write the computer program from the beginning level.

I can be your teacher in:
Android Java MATLAB C#

Good morning ! My name is Julien and I have been at EPFL for 5 years. Graduated with a Bachelor's degree from EPFL, I am a specialist in academic assistance for mathematics and computer science. I have a lot of experience helping and supporting first-year university students. I have accompanied many students during the course and I know the challenges encountered by the students. I carry out real work of reframing and monitoring the student, while ensuring an atmosphere of personal progress for the student.

I am very flexible on working conditions and locations, but here are some examples of private lessons:
- Online availability on Zoom, I have a tablet and a pen for optimal working conditions.
- Directly on the EPFL campus to save you additional transport.
- Possibility of working in groups with your friends with a reduction in prices or directly at your home.

Students of all levels are welcome and of course my help will be adapted according to the needs and objectives of the student. Whether it is for a one-day private lesson to solve a few problems, or a follow-up during the semester, I will try to offer the best assistance to the student.

Recently graduated from EPFL in communication systems, I would be happy to consolidate your knowledge and provide you with assistance in the fields of mathematics and programming/algorithmics.

We can work together on exercises that are worrying you, or I can select several for you that would target your shortcomings in order to eliminate them. I want to impart an understanding and appreciation of mathematics.

Welcome to my Programming Projects Support class!

Are you facing hurdles with your programming projects? Let's tackle them together!

As a Geophysics PhD student, I rely heavily on programming tools like Matlab, Python, and R for data analysis, mathematical modeling, plot results and much more.

After a lot of requests from students I created this course which is specifically meant to give you support completing your final programming projects.

Here's what you can expect:

- We'll review your project's background and requirements.
- Analyze your coding progress and identify areas for improvement.
- Collaborate to overcome obstacles, debug your code and advance your project.
- Tailored sessions based on your project's complexity and your skill level.

Whether you require a single session or a series of in-depth consultations, my goal remains the same: to help you break through programming barriers and achieve your goals.

Ready to level up your programming skills? Let's get started!

Please note:
This is a support course only ! While I'm here to guide you, the project's success lies in your hands and I will not finish your project for you.

Mathematics is the best way to enhance your intellect but also work on your intuition and your ability to see patterns.

Good day, my name is Alex, I have been teaching math for over 10 years to hundreds of students. I will teach all grades from elementary school all the way to high school and IB/GCSE etc.

My philosophy revolves around these three values:
-Encouragement
-Inspiration
-Discipline

I specialize into teaching mathematics and programming, but in some occasions I teach physics too.
Feel free to contact me.

As an EPFL robotics engineer and computer science teacher at the Gymnasium level, I support beginners, professionals retraining for a new career, and curious adults in mastering generative AI tools for coding, automation, and creation. No prior technical knowledge is required.

• Understanding the AI ecosystem: ChatGPT, Claude AI, Gemini, Mistral. Which tool for which use?
• Mastering prompt engineering: structuring requests, obtaining reliable results
• Coding with AI (vibe coding): Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot to create applications and automations without being a developer
• Python fundamentals: just what you need to communicate effectively with AI and understand the generated code
• Concrete use cases: automating Excel, processing documents, creating a chatbot, connecting APIs

My goal: to take you from a simple ChatGPT user to a true creator of intelligent solutions.
