About

We’ll go through everything you need to know to get a 5 on the AP CSA exam. We’ll cover everything from the basic input/output, numeric calculation, functions/methods, classes, if statements, for/while loops, arrays/array lists, inheritance, recursion, and many more. With a solid background in computer science, I can present to you my personal insights on how to understand all these complex concepts from the basic level to the top level, and you can then get a 5 on the exam without much memorization. Looking forward to meet you:)

Hi! I am an international student in the United States. I am currently a high school junior who just loves to teach all I know about sciences and math! I am interested in computer science and can code in C++, Python, Java, and JavaScript (learning Solidity right now). I also have experience in both Deep Learning and Web development, and I am currently enrolled in Stanford University-Level Online Mathematics & Physics. I have also participated in competitive programming and am in the Platinum Division in USA Computing Olympiad. I am currently working on a website called the School of Athens, which is a democratic forum for voting, debate, and discussion aiming to solve the world’s polarization by offering multiple perspectives. If you’re interested in building a website and solving the world’s problems at the same time, join my series on how to become a web developer! If you have any questions about calculus, statistics, SAT, computer science, and biology, you're welcome to have a chat with me. 🍩 SUMaC 2023 ☀️ Summer of Protocols (Ethereum Foundation) Affiliate Researcher

Computer Science

Fri 9:00 PM - 10:00 PM UTCApr 14, 9:00 PM - 10:00 PM UTC

Now that we have a fair amount of experience in process-oriented programming, we will delve into object-oriented programming, which is one of the most important concepts in Java. We’ll mainly focus on writing classes, overloading/overriding methods, and inheritance.
