interview prep.
-Independent Research: many students elect work on a paper publication to showcase to the admissions committee. This has proven to substantially better their chances in the admissions cycle. This year alone (2024-2025), my students have been accepted into MIT, Cornell, UPenn, Columbia, UMichigan, Carnegie Mellon and many more!
[2] Computer Science:
-Consulting: I offer my expertise in artificial intelligence(AI), machine learning(ML), natural language processing(NLP) to help individuals learn more about the cutting edge developments and how to use these tools in their own practice.
-Competition Prep: USACO and NACLO.
-General Preparation: Whether it is preparing for an exam, problem set, or completing a full-length course over the summer, I ensure to immediately identify and fill in any gaps within students' pre-req knowledge. My approach goes beyond the mere problem-solving process, and I will help you develop your own toolbox of long-term analytic reasoning skills that will serve you beyond your course!
AP CS P, AP CS A, Python/JAVA/C/++, object oriented programming, data structures, theory of computation, analysis of algorithms, programming languages, computer architecture, operating systems, reinforcement learning (RL), computational and theoretical linguistics, logic (symbolic/deductive/modal logic), math (probability theory, discrete/proof-based mathematics), calculus+linear algebra, PDEs, physics (through graduate level), computational neuroscience (through grad level).
