Basic Computer Course along with the complete MsOffice Package and HTML (creating web pages)
Talking about Computers, it is a very interesting subject. As technology is advancing at a rapid pace, we rely more and more on computers for everything from playing games to organizing our taxes. An understanding of computer basics is compulsory nowadays. I have a Master's Degree in Computer Science and this course is designed according to your level of understanding of computers. We'll be practically doing things on Computers and see the things happening over there. Starting from Computer basics which includes computer knowledge of Operating system, hardware-software components, internet, World Wide Web(WWW), different web browsers, and other basic functionalities of a computer system. Then moving on to basic knowledge of word processing, spreadsheets and preparing professional presentations (Ms. Word, Ms. Excel, Ms. Powerpoint) and creating simple web pages through HTML. Apart from this if you wish, we can move to the advanced level of each of them. I'll be teaching you in a very simple way so that you grab the concepts easily. Let's start and do something innovative.

Python Lessons for All Ages! All Levels Welcome! Beginners, Intermediates, Professionals!
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!

Software Development, Algorithms, Backend, FrontEnd
Hi All, I'm Madalina, 27 years old software developer. I finished Computer Science high school and university in Romania and Hungary. Working as a full-time backend Java software developer in the past 5 years and full stack (backend + front-end) in the past 2 years. I have experience in teaching and training since 2012. During the lessons the used language for back-end is Java. For front-end HTML, CSS, AngularJS. For fastening up the learning process a personal laptop for the students in the intermediate group, would be optimal. For this purpose I start 3 teams: 1. Beginners : Primary school students or persons interested to have some basic concepts and terminology regarding software development: searching and sorting algorithms, variables, parameters, function overriding, pseudo language, functions, procedures, data structures, pure HTML and CSS. 2. Intermediate: concepts of dns servers and lookup, frameworks definitions and introduction, SQL queries, Hibernate framework, query and processing database objects in Java, http, web services, JSON format, SpringBoot, unit testing JUnit, full stack approach, HTML, CSS and introduction to Angular JS. 3. Advanced : Group for students in the first and second year of university, with a full stack approach. Already familiar with the knowledge of an intermediate student. During the lessons a brief introduction to Java frameworks, project delivery, project management frameworks Agile Scrum and Lean, continuous delivery Jenkins, SpringBoot + AngularJs, implementation of website, database handling, login form, security. Regards, Madalina

Statistics, Data Analytics, Machine Learning and AI in Switzerland – Professional support from theory to practice
For many years, I have successfully supported Swiss students in the fields of statistics, data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. I have gained extensive experience using R as a statistical programming tool and know exactly what students in Switzerland are required to do. I have numerous sample projects, datasets, and exam questions at my disposal and have prepared many students for their assignments and exams in a targeted, sustainable, and highly successful manner. My focus is on explaining complex statistical procedures, algorithms, and data analyses in an understandable way, demonstrating them in a practical way, and building confidence in the secure handling of data. My goal is not only to improve grades, but also, in the long term, to develop a deep understanding of data-driven questions and modern technologies such as machine learning and AI, which are crucial in later professional life. ► How do I teach? ►I attach great importance to ensuring that my students truly understand statistical concepts, data analytics methods, machine learning, and AI models, rather than just applying them mechanically – this is how we achieve sustainable success in statistics, data analytics, and modern technologies. ►My success is based on my ability to flexibly adapt my teaching style to the individual needs of students in statistics, data analytics, machine learning and AI, including topics such as regression methods, logistic regression and other machine learning algorithms. ►I use practical, lively examples from statistics, data science and AI to clearly explain abstract concepts such as hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, linear and nonlinear models and to anchor them deeply in the memory. ►With patience and clarity, I break down complex statistical analyses, machine learning models, and data processes into their essential components so that no student is overwhelmed and can build a solid foundation in statistics, data analytics, and AI. ►I am convinced that trusting collaboration is crucial to reducing uncertainty in statistics or data science and creating a productive learning atmosphere. ►I offer intensive exam preparation and project support in statistics, data analytics, machine learning and AI, develop strategies to combat exam anxiety with my students and train them on real data sets and complex algorithms. ►As an experienced online tutor for statistics, data analytics, machine learning, and AI, I use modern tools such as interactive whiteboards and live coding sessions in R to make teaching as efficient and practice-oriented as possible. ►Locations: I teach statistics, data analytics, machine learning, and AI at your home, online, or by appointment – flexible, professional, and tailored precisely to your needs.
