| Computer Science Tutor (April 2021 - Sept. 2021) | |
| I privately tutored programming and computer science-related concepts. Programming-related concepts: variables (built-in types and associated built-in functions); operators; basic programming syntax; basic manipulation of command line; control statements; looping/iterating; built-in functions; the "main" function; user-defined functions; external modules; specific modules. Computer science-related concepts: algorithm; pseudo-code; programming language theory; data structure; functional programming. Self-made appropriate programming examples and exercises are used to illustrate the concept(s) in question. [Programming language used: Python.] |
