Programming for all (Python, Coding Games, Game Development)

Van 53.56 $ /h

Hello Prospective Learner,

I am Gundeep, grew up in India, studied in US and worked in Silicon Valley and have 10 years of programming experience in all kinds of programming languages. I would like to share that knowledge with others. I especially think it's a great time for kids to learn programming considering that it's the next frontier of knowledge. Currently there is 1 developer for every 4 jobs in The Netherlands. And participation is really low from minority communities and women. I want to play my small part to change that. I don't intend to have too many students since I work full time and my hope is to find a handful of committed students whom I can teach true of the essence of programming besides just the technical concepts.

With young Kids 7-10 (like my son) I think technical coding-related games work great in teaching them how to think analytically. For teenagers+ I think they can already start learning python a very easy-to-use, extremely powerful language.

I live with my wife and our 6-year-old son in Loosdrecht and would be willing to commute within reasonable distance. Online classes could be option too, but I strongly believe in person education is more effective. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.

*Please note that I can only teach in English. Mijn nederlands is niet zo goed :/
** For people from minority communities and women I would be glad to offer a cheaper price per lesson.

Would be nice to have your own computer, Windows or Mac.

I love explaining things simply, as Einstein said If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.

Computers in essence are super simple, doing only super basic things. But they are layered on top of each other to create the complexity.

I will first quickly find where your current understanding lies and then from there start building on top of that. More often than not, that means starting from scratch with the basics. I find that just like math it is crucial to really understand and grasp all the preceding steps before moving to the next one. Often when people learn at public schools, they missed one step here and then from there on out people are lost and are trying to learn things by head instead. Which will not help you in the world of computers.

So what can I help with? Literally anything IT related in both English or Dutch. And yes, that means all programming languages included. Uiteraard ook in het Nederlands.

Welcome Student,

As a graduate of the Bachelor's program in Mathematics and Computer Science and the Master's program in Mathematics, I've noticed that many students struggle with many subjects. These are often also the most crucial for their progress, as many future courses build on them. If you're a Bachelor's student facing the same challenge, you've come to the right place. We'll review the material together and work towards your exams, so you can confidently take them.

From a 'birds-eye view', many of these courses clearly have specific types of assignments that you must be able to pass your exam. We pick out these kinds of assignments and we will train you together in order to master them. In addition, we will counteract your weaknesses by going through assignments and theory about it.

To give you a clear idea of which courses I've taken and how I can help you, I've included a list of my completed university courses below (all with a grade of 7 or higher). Note that I studied in Utrecht myself, so your courses may be titled differently.

Biology is a subject that many students choose to take or are forced to take in high school. The classes will go over any material that the student may find difficult to understand and help reinforce their understanding of what they've learnt in class.

The subject discussed in class will be decided by student in order to focus on what they want to learn.

(Can help younger students with science as a whole).

leer programmeren met een Arduino

Deze zomervakantie, op woensdag 17 en 24 augustus, geeft Wail Kherrazi (14) de workshop Bouw en programmeer een Corona 1,5 meter afstand-melder, in de Maakplaats van de Bibliotheek Amstelveen Stadsplein. Met een Arduino (een klein board met programmeerbare elektronica) bouwen en programmeren de deelnemers een afstand-apparaat, dat piept als je te dicht bij iemand staat.

Het idee voor de corona 1,5 meter afstand-melder ontstond toen twee jaar geleden de 1,5 meter regel werd afgekondigd. Wail ondervond dat veel mensen moeite hadden om op een respectvolle manier 1,5 meter afstand te houden. “Het klinkt zo onaardig om steeds te roepen ‘afstand houden’; daar wilde ik iets aan doen,” vertelt Wail. “Ik vond programmeren altijd al leuk en toen ik nieuwe programmeermaterialen van mijn vader kreeg, ben ik een prototype voor een corona 1,5 meter afstand-melder gaan bouwen.”

Afstand houden
Wail trok al snel de aandacht met zijn uitvinding. Hij werd geïnterviewd door het Jeugdjournaal, kwam met verschillende mensen in contact die hem hielpen een bedrijf op te zetten en werd zelfs genomineerd voor de Nationale Kinderprijs en de CSU Innovatie Award! Met zijn bedrijf, WailSalutem, wil Wail bewerkstelligen dat mensen gezond blijven, goed voor zichzelf zorgen, lief zijn voor elkaar en respectvol met elkaar omgaan. Wail: “Mijn apparaat maakt het gemakkelijker om afstand te houden. Je hoeft niet meer steeds te zeggen dat je graag afstand houdt. Dat doet het apparaat met zijn piepgeluid. En dat is fijn voor mensen die nu en in de toekomst graag afstand willen blijven houden.”

Programmeren met een Arduino
Wail wil kinderen en jongeren graag inspireren. Daarom heeft hij ook WailSalutem Foundation op gericht. Hiermee wil hij kinderen vaardigheden leren op het gebied van internet, technologie, robotica en programmeren.

Wil jij leren programmeren met een Arduino? Wil jij een afstand-melder maken, onder leiding van Wail? Grijp dan je kans en kom naar zijn gast-workshop Bouw en programmeer een corona 1,5 meter afstand-melder, op 17 of 24 augustus!

I am a certified communication scientist (WO, MSc.) who teaches computational data analysis methods in SPSS, Python, R and thesis supervision.

During the lessons we can cover the basics of computational methods or data analysis. I can also help you gain a better understanding of the data structure, design a questionnaire in QUALTRICS (or similar program), or collect data together with you. We can do this in the programs Python, R or SPSS. I am also an expert in supervising theses.

I give lessons of one hour as standard, but these can be longer if desired. If you are looking for guidance for a longer period, I can offer you a package where you get a discount on my hourly rate.

I have experience teaching computational data analysis and machine learning at university and college level. I myself have a research master's degree in communication sciences.

What is this AI thing everybody is talking about these days? Do you want to understand technology at a deeper level? Are you interested in how common applications fundamentally operate? Would you like to improve your logical and analytical skills (not to mention endurance and patience)?
Learning to code - a phrase that is all too popular nowadays. Still, dealing with programming languages is kind of inevitable in every sector. And by becoming fluent in Python or AI techniques you broaden the spectrum of your possibilities, in academia, in the job market and in your personal life too!
There is simply no better language than Python to begin with on your exciting coding journey. And there is also no better way of doing that than by having someone personal to ask questions to. This way you not only don't have to waste time and effort on a stupid typo, but you're also less likely to give up. Effort * Encouragement = Success!
