About Simon
I'm a self-taught nerd with a passion for communicating about technology - after too many degrees (including a PhD from UPenn, an Ivy League School), and too many years in industry (5 years doing physics and machine learning), I'm ready to share my knowledge with some people that really need it. I enjoy teaching so much that going through school I TA'd almost every semester, and I even taught other teaching assistants how to teach their students.

Whether you need help with exam revision, with assignments, or with enrichment, I can help you where YOU need it:
- I focus strictly on understanding my student's needs.
- Lesson plans are individualized every time.
- I'm flexible - the important thing is helping you!
I'm totally comfortable with a wide range of areas in computer science through 2nd year university courses as well.
Example courses:
- Introduction to computer in Matlab, Python, C++, C or Java
- Algorithms and Data Structures
Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Simon.
Perfect! Very friendly and professional, was able to quickly answer and explain my questions, and was very concerned with teaching me the concepts I wanted to know. Incredibly knowledgeable and challenged my own understanding to make sure I truly grasped the concepts!
Perfect! Simon’s a lifesaver! He took concepts I felt hopeless about and managed to shed light on them, making it possible for me to begin to solve topics that involved bitwise operators and recursion. I can’t imagine taking Data Structures and Algorithms without him. He suggets ways to improve the code I’ve already written so that I’m constantly learning and improving. Simon also patiently provides me with the space to work through the code and piece together the logic at my own pace. I would recommend Simon to anyone that is looking to succeed at Computer Science. Simon is simply the best!
Perfect! Simon is a great tutor and has a clear passion for computers and coding. He has an impressive background and extensive knowledge, which he applies in his lessons effectively. He helped me learn a lot about C++ and was able to effectively explain concepts with the perfect amount of detail. Simon is an amazing tutor and I strongly recommend his lessons.
Perfect! Simon has provided excellent tutoring to me in C++. He clearly has mastered this programming language and yet he communicates clearly, patiently, and effectively for a beginning student such as myself. I intend to work with him regularly in the future and would recommend the same to anyone looking to understand C++.

An absolutely amazing teacher that knows how to let those whom he is helping learn how they need to, something that not everyone understands. This is absolutely in the fields Simon has helped me in, such as Python, Machine Learning, and other topics of the nature. He is very knowledgeable about the fields he teaches, as well as fields he doesn't. Would very much recommend, as he is someone I've learned very much from.
I have been learning from and working with Simon for years off and on. He has served as a mentor, a teacher, and a sounding board for my projects and work. He has been proven to be a valuable resource for my professional goals of improving my programming abilities and understanding in matlab and python. Simon always manages to maintain a friendly and welcoming demeanor when addressing questions, regardless of whether the question is a challenging one or something that maybe I should have known before. I remember specifically struggling with a particularly hard and trying piece of matlab code, and Simon not only made himself available as technical help, but as a sort of moral support. This help allowed me to finish the project with more confidence while also filling in the technical details that I was struggling with in the code. But what is really has left the most lasting impression is that he understands the importance of letting students learn in a way that works for them, not everybody I work with shares that ability to work outside their comfort zone. I would highly recommend Simon as a tutor. I believe his unique work and teaching experience combined with his measured approach is what makes working with him fun, effective, and fulfilling.
