I graduated with a Physics Ph.D. and CS Master from Wake Forest University. I have helped over 150 students from elementary school to college with course study/homework/test prep. I have also helped over 100 professionals to land their dream jobs at FAANG companies. I love to teach and have helped many students from different levels to succeed in their learning and projects.

My specialty is helping students master materials in physics, computer science, and machine learning. I also specialize in interview prep and helping people to land their dream job in tech companies. I have worked with hundreds of students/candidates on maths, statistics, and test prep at all levels.

I want to benefit the students I work with as much as possible. Currently, I only accept remote working appointments. Please don't hesitate to message me if you want to work with me!

Extremely Knowledable

Qi is an excellent tutor and an amazing Python programmer. He has an unfathomably deep understanding of Python and coding in general. He does a fantastic job of explaining concepts and code that are hard to grasp at first glance. His knowledge isn't just limited to coding though; he's also an expert in anything related to math and data science. This guy is amazing; I couldn't recommend him enough. He's one of the best tutor's I've ever had. Seriously, this guy is a 12/10 tutor!!

Great!

Qi helped me with an incredibly challenging divide and conquer algorithm. I had been looking for a solution for days and he helped me find one!

John, 1 lesson with Qi

super knowledgeable and helped me a lot

I'm a Ph.D. student an he helped with my research (MD simulations), he reviewed my code and explained to me the concepts and we code a solution together. He was able to help super fast, I highly recommend him
