Learn to code with method and logic
Whether it's to succeed in the NSI (Digital Sciences and Technology) specialization in high school, design personal projects, or prepare for higher scientific studies, mastering code relies on solid algorithmic thinking. I help students understand the structure of programming languages and the logic of data.

Subject areas and languages taught:

Algorithms & Logic: Designing data structures and solving problems.

Programming Languages: Python, C/C++, C# and Java.

Data Management: Analysis and SQL queries / databases.

Basic Web Development: HTML & CSS for creating structured pages.

The goal is to take the student from simply writing code to true autonomy in development.

Do you want to learn programming from scratch in an easy and practical way? This course is aimed at beginners and students who want to build a strong foundation in programming and algorithms.

We will learn step by step how to think computationally, design algorithms, and solve problems before writing code, and then we will move on to applying that using different programming languages such as **Python, Java, C, C++ and Bash**.

During the lessons you will learn:

* Programming basics from scratch.
* Basic algorithms and data structures.
Variables, conditions, loops, and functions.
* Object-oriented programming (OOP).
* Write clean and organized code.
* Solving programming exercises and problems.
* Assistance with university assignments and exam preparation.
* Implement small projects to apply what you have learned.

The lessons are hands-on, where you'll write code yourself and learn to think like a programmer, not just memorize commands. The content is tailored to each student's level and goals.

My lessons are designed to take you from simply following code to genuinely understanding how data science works.

We can cover the complete data science process, including data cleaning, exploratory data analysis, feature engineering, visualisation, statistics, machine learning, model evaluation and communicating results.

Depending on your goals, lessons can include:

Python, pandas, NumPy and scikit-learn
Data cleaning and exploratory analysis
Regression and classification
Decision trees, random forests and boosting
Clustering and dimensionality reduction
Cross-validation and model evaluation
Feature engineering and model interpretation
Neural networks and deep learning foundations
Bayesian modelling and PyMC
Portfolio and interview preparation
Support understanding university modules and projects

I use diagrams, analogies and practical demonstrations to make difficult ideas easier to understand. We will normally begin with an intuitive explanation, look at the underlying logic or mathematics, and then implement the concept in Python.

Lessons are personalised around your level. Complete beginners receive a structured learning path, while experienced students can focus on advanced topics, project guidance, debugging or interview preparation.

You will be encouraged to explain ideas back to me, interpret results and make your own modelling decisions. My goal is not only to help you produce working code, but to help you become an independent and confident data scientist.
