About Usamah
I hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering from the National University of Sciences and Technology, one of Pakistan's leading engineering institutions, and my degree has been verified by the tutoring platform I currently teach on.
Over the past two years I have taught more than 550 one-to-one online lessons, holding a 4.5 rating across those, with perfect scores from students on preparation, progress and reassurance. My students have ranged from nine-year-olds writing their first line of Python to university engineering students working through final-year projects, and they come from the United States, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Alongside teaching, I work with embedded systems, circuit and PCB design, and autonomous drones. I have interned in embedded engineering, built flight avionics and unmanned aerial vehicles, and worked on computer vision systems. This is the part of my background that students tell me matters most, because I am explaining tools I use rather than tools I have only read about.
I take punctuality and preparation seriously. I turn up on time, I prepare for each lesson in advance based on what we covered last, and I keep parents informed about how their child is progressing. If a student is struggling with something, I will say so plainly and we will work on it, rather than pretending everything is fine.
I speak English at C2 level and teach entirely in English. I am patient by nature and I do not believe anyone is inherently bad at technical subjects. Almost always, they were just taught badly the first time.

I'm an electrical engineer and I've taught over 550+ one-to-one lessons online. My approach starts from logic rather than memorization: most students who think they're bad at programming have simply been shown syntax before they were shown why any of it works. Once the reasoning clicks, the code follows.
A typical lesson runs the same way. We spend a few minutes on where you got stuck, then I explain one concept using screen sharing and a real example, and then you write code yourself while I watch and correct in real time. You leave every lesson having built something small that runs, and with a short task to attempt before we next meet. I don't lecture for an hour and I don't solve problems for you.
What sets me apart is that programming is what I actually do, not just what I teach. I build embedded systems, circuits and drones, so I can show you where a concept lands in the real world instead of stopping at the textbook.
My lessons are for complete beginners of any age, secondary school students preparing for IGCSE, O Level, A Level, AP or IB Computer Science, university students who need help with assignments and final-year projects, and adults changing career into tech. I teach Python and C++ mainly, along with algorithms, data structures, databases, networking basics, MATLAB, and Arduino and STM32 for anyone interested in hardware.
Starting from zero is completely normal, and so is feeling behind your classmates. In our first lesson we'll work out your level and your goal, and agree a plan and a regular weekly time from there.

Usamah has been my batchmate since high school. We did Cambridge O and A Levels together.
In O levels, we both took science subjects (with Computer Science as an extra subject), and then Science subjects in A levels.
Often times some concept in Math or Computers would confuse me and he would happily guide me, making sure that I understood each part before going to the next step.
In Physics he was deeply energetic when we got to the Electrical section and that's probably why he did Bachelors in Electrical Engineering later.
Even though we took different career paths after A levels, yet he would still help me if I faced any issue related to Computers.
He also guided our mutual friend's younger sister when she got stuck with a programming problem in the Final year project of her CS degree.
I think he's a great teacher especially for Computers and Electrical stuff. You should definitely take a class with him.I met Usamah at university. Despite him studying Electrical Engineering and my degree being in Marine Engineering, he never hesitated to help or guide me with Arduino and ESP32 projects, especially the harder coding parts.
Often, some concepts seemed confusing to me, but Usamah would break them down into simple steps, building up to the main idea until everything fell into place.
If you're looking for someone good with Electronics and Programming, I'd definitely recommend him, especially if you need someone patient and willing to explain a concept in even simpler terms.
I still remember how he assisted me with my Arduino LFR project, haha.Usamah is my NUST University class mate. I met him in the second year of my Electrical Engineering degree.
Usamah had a keen interest in the computer science subjects, especially Fundamentals of programming, Object Oriented programming, Data Structure Algorithms, AI and ML.
He often helped me with the coding part of our electrical projects, and we made multiple projects together like ESP32 CAM WiFi operated RC Surveillance vehicle, ESP32 S3 Hand Gesture detection, Python based Projects..
We also worked together on our FYP project Smart Traffic Evaluation And Monitoring (STrEAM), where we worked on CVAT, YOLO, Drones, IP Cams, Pixhawk, Object Detection and Identification technologies.
If you need guidance on any of these, Usamah would be a great resource!I met Usamah at university.
Despite being my junior, his knowledge of programming and electronics was amazing, and he often assisted me with the electrical side of my Naval Architecture projects.
Not only that, he would then explain what was happening in very simple terms.
I think he's a great resource if you're trying to learn or need guidance in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science subjects and projects.I’ve known Usamah for a while, and what stands out most is how easy he is to learn from.
He listens carefully, understands where the confusion is, and then explains things in a way that actually makes sense.
He’s also very encouraging, which makes it easier to ask questions without feeling hesitant.
Whether it’s a basic programming concept or something more technical, he takes the time to make sure the person is following along.
I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor who is knowledgeable, patient, and easy to communicate with.Usamah has a strong understanding of programming and is one of those people who can make a difficult topic feel much easier than it first seems.
I’ve personally seen how calmly and clearly he explains problems, especially when someone is stuck or confused.
He is very practical in his approach and focuses on helping you actually understand and apply what you’re learning rather than just memorising things.
I think he would be a great tutor for anyone starting programming or wanting to improve their skills.I’ve known Usamah for quite some time and have always found him to be patient, approachable, and genuinely good at explaining things.
He has a way of breaking complicated programming concepts into simple steps without making the other person feel overwhelmed.
He doesn’t just give you the answer, he makes sure you understand why something works and is happy to explain it again in a different way if needed.
I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a friendly and supportive programming tutor.See more recommendations
