About Me

I enjoy teaching people and I take it as a personal challenge to find the most simple, visual and real-life analogies to explain abstract concepts. I approach classes as a training partner rather than an authoritarian all-knowing figure. :D

Intro to Artificial Intelligence with Hands-On Examples

46 € /h

Artificial Intelligence is the branch of computer science that studies the autonomy of software systems by enabling adaptive behavior without direct programming.

A.I. is popular nowadays due to the recent outstanding progress of Large Language Models (chatbots like ChatGPT), but that is only the tip of the field.

Let’s dive together and explore the base of the iceberg that is A.I.: machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing, search and optimization.

Focus on hands-on and intuitive practical application guaranteed regardless of age or background!

Intro to Robotics (Control, Dynamics, Perception, Reasoning)

54 € /h

Want to learn about the world of robots? Humanoids, rovers, drones, you name it! How do they see, feel, act and think? We can dive into their world in an easy to understand, but hands-on way using simulators!

Do you also have a school/university subject related to this that you have difficulties grasping? You know nothing about robots or just watched a movie and you find them cool? Then let's talk!

We can have a lesson, Q&A, assessment where we decide together how we can feed your curiosity.

Most kids think coding is for "smart kids" or "future programmers."
It's not. Coding is how real people solve real problems.
In this class, we skip the theory. Your child creates real things.

What they'll do:
✓ Build real projects in Scratch: a working game, an interactive animation, a story they coded
✓ Program virtual robots: solve real-world challenges (navigate a maze, automate a task, build a system)
✓ Create in Minecraft Education: design worlds, automate constructions, solve logic problems
✓ Experiment with different languages: not just learn "the right way," but understand that there are many ways to think about a problem
✓ Collaborate and share: work with other kids, get feedback, improve their work
✓ Develop logical thinking: not just for coding, but for anything: solving math problems, science challenges, real-world situations

Why this is different:
We don't teach syntax. We teach how programmers think.
Most children's coding courses say "here's the code, copy it." We teach "what problem are we trying to solve? How could we break it into steps? What options do we have?"
When your child learns to think like a programmer, they can learn any language afterward.

What they take home:
A portfolio of 3–4 completed, working projects. The ability to say "I built this." And the deep understanding that code is a tool to make real things happen.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible pace, no prior experience needed
For curious 8-12 year olds who want to build.

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.

This class is designed for high-potential students, from Grade 3 to Grade 12, aiming for the world’s most competitive mathematics competitions — the same competitions that act as strong signals for admission to Ivy League, Oxford, Cambridge, MIT, Stanford, and other top global universities.

I provide elite-level training in mathematical problem-solving, logical depth, and creative reasoning, focusing on competitions that identify exceptional talent rather than routine academic performance.

Major competitions covered include:

- AMC 8 / AMC 10 / AMC 12
- AIME
- IMO pathway (advanced problem-solving foundations)
- European & Asian Olympiads
- National and international math competitions
- SASMO, AMO, Fermat, Kangaroo, Gauss, Euclid competitions and others

Invitation-based and high-prestige contests recognized by top universities

These competitions are not about speed or memorization. They require original thinking, multi-step reasoning, and mathematical maturity — skills that universities actively look for in exceptional applicants.

My approach

I train students to think like mathematicians.

Students learn how to:

deconstruct complex, unfamiliar problems

identify hidden structures and elegant solution paths

apply advanced techniques from algebra, number theory, combinatorics, and geometry

write clear, rigorous, competition-level solutions

remain calm and strategic under high intellectual pressure

This is not school math and not standard tutoring. Sessions are intellectually demanding, highly structured, and tailored to the student’s current level and long-term goals.

Who this class is for

students with strong mathematical ability who want to reach elite level

students targeting top universities (Ivy League, MIT, Oxford, Cambridge etc.)

students preparing for national or international math competitions

families looking for long-term talent development, not short-term fixes

Instructor background

With extensive international experience in advanced mathematics education, university-level teaching, and mentoring high-achieving students, I understand how competition mathematics connects directly to elite university admissions and academic success.

I do not train students to “collect medals.”
I train them to develop exceptional mathematical thinking — the kind that opens doors.

Format

Sessions are highly personalized, challenging, and progressive.
Online via webcam.
Languages of instruction: English, Russian, Turkish, and Azerbaijani

Python is the programming language these days. It is simple, nice and almost all modern applications use it. With Python, we can now create artificial intelligence models that reduce human effort and give us more accurate and reliable results. The Java and C languages are not lacking in importance, they also make it possible to create applications optimized in terms of RAM.

The composition of the course depends on the level of the student and his own objectives. The first session is a one-hour evaluation session which allows the diagnosis of the level and the needs of the student. From this diagnosis we establish together a program that we will follow during our course.

Generally the course allows the student to assimilate:
* Predefined Data Types & Variables;
* Conditional Structures & Loops;
* Functions ;
* Object-oriented programming (OOP);
* Digital engineering;
* An introduction to databases (Examples and uses)
* Relational Algebra
* LDD, LCD, LMD, LCT
* SQL queries (SELECT, UPDATE, ...)
* Creation of a database and automation of queries using the Python language
* Handling files (TXT, Excel, CSV, JSON, Word);
* Data science;
* Introduction and some applications of Artificial Intelligence.

I am waiting for you to start this adventure.

* This digital training aims to introduce you to the Scratch tool and through the game world, and gradually, to discover programming concepts such as loops, conditions or variables. It is aimed at anyone who is new to Scratch and who wants to create games and animations.

* Learning programming will allow students to develop their skills and will certainly allow them to meet the expectations of the future working world and emerging careers.

* In addition, learning programming allows the development of algebraic, algorithmic and computational thinking. Programming also helps to improve and develop students' sequencing ability, as well as their communication skills. Thus, there are several advantages to teaching programming, but the important thing is to remember that this learning teaches students that digital is not only for entertainment, but that it is possible to become creators. active and creative content.
