Computer Science Tutor: Beginners, AP Prep, Algorithms and more!

From 46.41 € /h

I specialize in helping students learn fundamental computer science concepts. Over the past several years, I've worked with students of all ages - from 6th graders to adults. I am comfortable working with students who have never written a line of code, as well as those with some prior experience. And I've worked with a number of different languages, including Python, JavaScript, Java, and C.

Whether you're looking to learn some introductory concepts like `loops`and ìf`statements, need to prep for an upcoming AP exam, or want to dive deeper into topics such as Data Structures and Algorithms, I can help you level up your coding skills!

About Me

I am a firm believer that we all learn the most by DOING.

No class I've taught or tutoring session I've ran has ever been one-sided. You, the learner, are very much in control of the direction and pace of our material. As a teacher, I am here to guide you on your journey. I would much rather have a conversation with you than give a lecture to you. I am looking for students who are curious, aren't afraid to ask questions, and are ready to own their learning.

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.

Objective: To understand AI without fear, to use it to simplify one's life and to know how to identify digital traps.

1: Demystifying AI (What exactly is it?)
AI is not a movie robot: Difference between fiction and reality.

How it works (simply): The image of the "giant library": AI has read billions of books and uses them to predict the continuation of a sentence or create an image.

Where is it already present? Spell checkers, Netflix/YouTube suggestions, GPS, and voice assistants (Siri/Alexa).

2: Using AI to make life easier
Conversing with AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini):

Ask him to write an administrative email or a complex letter.

Summarize a long newspaper article or document.

Plan a travel itinerary or find recipe ideas with what's left in the fridge.

AI for creativity and memory:

Generate images to illustrate a birthday card (Midjourney, DALL-E).

Using AI to restore or colorize old family photos.

3: Learning to "talk" to AI (The Art of the Prompt)
The context method: Why "Give me a cake recipe" is less effective than "I am allergic to gluten and I am hosting 4 people, give me a simple chocolate cake recipe".

The expert's role: Learning to tell AI "Act like a travel guide" or "Act like an expert gardener".

4: Precautions and Critical Thinking (The Survival Guide)
"Hallucinations": Understand that AI can make false claims with complete certainty (never take medical or legal advice from AI without verification).

Privacy protection:

Never give sensitive data (social security number, passwords, bank details) to an AI.

Knowing that everything we write to the AI is potentially used to train it.

Spotting "Deepfakes":

How to recognize a doctored image or video (details on the hands, strange reflections, slightly metallic voice).

Verify the information: the golden rule of cross-referencing sources.

5: Ethics and Impacts (To go further)
Copyright: Who owns an image created by AI?

The environmental impact: The water and energy consumption of AI servers.

The future: Will AI replace us or assist us?

Want a structured start in cybersecurity?
In these online classes, I'll guide beginners in understanding the basic principles of web security and penetration testing.
The focus is on methodical thinking and understanding commonly used frameworks like OWASP and PTES. We'll not only cover theory but also look at how to apply these principles in practical scenarios and labs.
Depending on your level, we can work on:
• Introduction to cybersecurity and core concepts
• OWASP Top 10 at a beginner's level
• The different phases of PTES
• Understanding risk analysis and vulnerabilities
• Basic web application attacks in theory
• Preparation for beginner labs like TryHackMe
Each class consists of explanations of concepts, analysis of examples, and targeted practice questions. The goal is to build a strong foundation and learn to think in a structured way like a security analyst.
These classes are designed for absolute beginners or students who want to take their first steps in web security.

This course introduces students to the essential role of data annotation in artificial intelligence and machine learning. Learners will gain a clear understanding of how raw data is transformed into structured, labeled datasets that enable AI systems to learn, interpret, and make accurate predictions.

Through guided instruction and practical examples, the class explores different types of annotation, including text, image, audio, and video labeling. Students will learn industry-relevant techniques, annotation standards, and quality control practices that ensure consistency and reliability in real-world AI projects.

The course emphasizes hands-on learning, allowing participants to practice annotation tasks and understand how their work directly impacts the performance of AI models. By the end of the class, students will have the foundational knowledge and practical skills needed to begin working on data annotation tasks or pursue opportunities in the AI and data industry.

• Teaching methodology and techniques: I favour a personalized approach, adapting the courses according to the profile and academic background of each student.
• Typical course structure: tutoring in economics, econometrics, statistics and probability, financial mathematics, trading, investment, or political economy. Courses can take place at home, via videoconference, or at a pre-selected location, ideally quiet, free, and conducive to learning.
• Specifics as a teacher: I offer support throughout the school year, with free corrections of exercises outside of class, regular availability, and the guarantee of being accessible until the end of the year, subject to the general conditions of Superprof.
• Target audience: all levels, regardless of diploma, class or specific characteristics.
-------
The path and the method are in there; take a little bit of each.

Holding a degree in mathematics from EPFL, I offer private lessons in Geneva or online.

I graduated from EPFL with a degree in mathematics, having completed all the Bachelor's level courses in this discipline. I have gained significant experience tutoring students from middle school to university level (mathematics and physics). I have also assisted with teaching at EPFL, particularly in specialized courses such as analytic geometry (advanced mathematics course), analysis (first and second year Bachelor's level), and linear algebra (first year Bachelor's level). My in-depth mastery of the theory in these disciplines provides me with the skills and teaching abilities necessary to effectively support high school and university students, helping them understand the theoretical concepts in their courses and apply them practically in their exercises.

Typical course: a quick review (adapted to needs) of the essential concepts of the course, followed by practical exercises and oral role-playing (going to the board, discussion on the physical meaning, etc.), as in a competitive oral exam.

All my lessons are prepared in advance based on the topics covered in class (the student specifies their needs from one session to the next). I also create a handout containing sample exercises illustrating different methods, fully corrected and explained by me.

My commitment to my students' success is absolute. I only prioritize motivated students who are ready to put in the necessary effort to progress.

My main focus is on in-depth understanding and the quality of work. Depending on the student's request, I can also suggest exercises to do between sessions (not mandatory, depending on available time and homework already assigned by their school).
