About Ali

I come from a pretty diverse background in tech — I’ve worked in software development, game development, and product roles, and I have both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in computer science.

These are the subjects I can help you with:
- Data Structures
- Algorithms
- Software Design
- Design Patterns
- Game Design & Development
- C++ Programming
- Java Programming
- C# Programming
- Unity Game Engine

I’ve also worked as a teaching assistant for more than 10 courses across both undergraduate and graduate levels, so I’ve seen firsthand how challenging computer science concepts can feel. That’s actually one of the reasons I enjoy teaching — I know where things usually get confusing, and I like breaking them down in a way that just makes sense.

Alongside that, I’ve been creating technical content and helping people prepare for coding interviews, especially through LeetCode-style problems. Seeing people go from being stuck to actually landing roles has been one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

At the end of the day, I’m not just here to “teach material” — I genuinely enjoy helping people understand things clearly and feel more confident in what they’re doing.

About the lesson

From my experience, one of the biggest reasons students struggle with computer science is that many concepts are abstract and often misunderstood from the beginning. That’s why I focus a lot on visual explanations — breaking things down in a way you can actually see what’s going on, not just memorize it. Look at my linked video to get a better idea of my approach.

I teach step by step, and I won’t move forward unless I’m sure you’ve fully understood the concept. The goal is not to rush through material, but to build a solid foundation so you can approach new problems with confidence.

I care much more about deep understanding than memorization. We’ll go through the “why” behind everything, not just the “how”.

I also adjust the pace completely based on your comfort. If something needs more time, we take more time — simple as that.

And honestly, your comfort matters a lot to me. I try to keep the environment relaxed so you feel comfortable asking anything — even the questions you think are “too basic” or “silly”. Those are usually the ones that matter most.

What I really like about Ali is his teaching style. He focuses on helping you understand the “why” behind things, not just memorizing. He explains concepts step by step and uses clear examples that make everything click. If you struggle with computer science topics, he’s definitely someone who can help.

Wonderful experience! I have always wanted to get into CS concepts, and Ali was super knowledgeable and a very effective communicator. He always focused on building up my intuition instead of telling me about how things are. Definitely Recommended 10/10

Ali helped me understand concepts that I previously found really confusing. His way of breaking things down and explaining them clearly made a big difference. He creates a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and learning at your own pace.
