Series Details

About

We will cover the fundamentals of Python. No prior experience is necessary, as we will start from the very basics. We will cover printing, variables, operations, lists, conditionals, loops, functions, and many more!

Tutor Qualifications

I have experience programming in Python for a year, C++ for 3 years, and competitive programming for over a year. I have experience with competitive programming competitions such as the American Computer Science League (ACSL), United States of America Computing Olympiad (USACO), and some Codeforces contests. When learning Python, I worked on numerous projects that helped me master the fundamentals of Python. During the 2022-2023 USACO Contests, I passed the Bronze Division with a perfect score and got some Silver Division problems partially right.

About the Tutor

Hi, I'm Jimmy! I'm a junior in high school interested in learning and teaching math and computer science I also teach SAT Bootcamps and other enrichment topics. In my free time, I like to play sports like running and soccer, watch movies (love Nolan films), and read classic books (Dostoyevsky is my favorite). I look forward to teaching you!
