About Octavian

I am a full-time private tutor with a research background at the University of Oxford, where I applied advanced mathematical optimization — the machinery underneath modern machine learning — to real-world engineering problems, alongside more than 1,400 hours of formal university teaching. I have been tutoring privately since 2009, and I bring that rigor to Computer Science: not a list of syntax to memorize, but a discipline of problem-solving that rewards genuine understanding.

Why choose me? Expert knowledge: years of experience teaching and applying computer science principles in real-world scenarios. Customized lessons: sessions tailored to your learning style, pace, and goals. A passion for teaching: I am dedicated to making complex concepts simple and helping you succeed.

In New York, I work with learners at every level: high school students taking AP Computer Science A or AP CS Principles, college students at Columbia, NYU, Cornell Tech, City College, and beyond, complete beginners writing their first lines of code, and professionals transitioning into tech, upskilling, or preparing for technical interviews.

Whether you are just starting or aiming to excel, I am here to guide you every step of the way. Step into the future with confidence — book your first session today.

Subjects covered: programming languages — Python, Java (the language of AP Computer Science A), C++, JavaScript, and more; algorithms and data structures, the core of every CS degree and every coding interview; web development, frontend and backend; machine learning and AI fundamentals; database management, SQL and NoSQL; cybersecurity fundamentals; systems design and architecture; and exam preparation and coursework support.

Every engagement starts with a diagnostic: I identify where your understanding actually breaks down — the programming concepts, the underlying logic, or the math beneath topics like machine learning — and build the plan around closing those gaps. Lessons are tailored, practical, and demanding in the right measure: my goal is problem-solving skill and coding confidence you can use in an exam, an interview, or a job — not surface familiarity.

What you will gain: a solid foundation in computer science, genuine problem-solving ability, coding confidence, and career guidance grounded in real-world application.

Within 24 hours of every session, you receive fully typed notes of what we covered, refreshers on the concepts that need further attention, and a written summary of where you stand and what to focus on next. For school-age students, parents are copied in as standard.

I teach online and in person throughout New York City, with flexible scheduling to fit your availability. Minimum one hour per session. Lessons canceled with less than 24 hours' notice are charged in full.
