Python stands out as one of the easiest, most robust, and widely used programming languages, making it suitable for a wide range of tasks, from graphical user interface development to web applications. Its versatility is what I love about it, and I'm passionate about teaching it.

My goal is to help you unlock your programming potential, keeping you motivated and challenged without overwhelming you. The sessions will take a practical approach, introducing you to a toolset and providing tailored exercises to deepen and refine your skills. After each lesson, I'll assign homework, offer feedback, and discuss alternative approaches to tackle assignments. Together, we'll journey towards mastery in Python programming.

My teaching methods are based on my student and their requests. I like to firstly understand what exactly your level currently is where you want to go and how we can achieve it.

I prefer to let you first do it on your own and help once you get stuck. Learning from making mistakes is the best way of learning IMO.

Lessons would usually be 2 hours at a time, but the duration is flexible.

I have already tutored many students in different fields with great success.

My lessons are mainly intended for new Computer Science Engineers that are having difficulties with CSE concepts, but I have also taught normal engineering students that had to learn programming for the first time such as Python for mathematicians.

I am a BSc Graduate from TU Delft in the computer science field, and I am currently studying for my master's degree in Complex systems engineering and management with the aim of becoming a product designer/manager.

I can teach you all the ins and outs of programming for Android devices, whether you've never done anything in that direction or are already well experienced. The programming language we use is Kotlin.
If you want, we can start with the installation of Android Studio and end with publishing your app in the Google Play Store.

- algorithms & data structures
- object oriented programming
- programming principles (SOLID, etc)

You will learn how to:
- build your own app using latest technologies (Jetpack Compose, Coroutines, Retrofit, Room)
- learn about different architecture approaches
- manage your project
- build your app in a scalable and maintanable way
- learn the platform specific characteristics

For advanced students:
- a lot of coding but with a professional approach

My lessons are aimed at teaching a method that can allow student's autonomy in using Max/MSP programming language and the Gen/Gen~ environment. The neophyte can benefit from a practical method, which focuses on the constant exchange between theory and practice; the advanced student will benefit from the refinements of their practice in patch design.
Ideally, the student will be able to be independent in some months.

Students can expect partial covering of DSP topics for music. If needed, a specific lesson can be requested.
Students are invited to present their works and patches, and can expect to discuss them in detail.

Students are expected to be present for each scheduled class, not late, and to avoid a rude or disrespectful beahviour.

DISCLAIMER

I am learning Dutch as for September 2024. As you can understand, I am not able to sustain a lesson in Dutch. So, for the moment, only in English or Italian...
