About Leon

I currently work as a Software Engineer at a start up and have a degree in Data Science and AI. Since joining SuperProf I have given 600 hours of tutoring in Computer Science, Data Structures, and Software engineering. I like to learn by doing, and think it is the best way for you to learn with me, so I have created a load of useful resources that you can access for free on my GitHub.

If you are at university; I know the struggle of being at university and having lecturers who don't have the time to properly cover all of the material or who assume knowledge that you may not have, and I'm here to help!

For those looking to learn a new skill, I like to teach practical applications from the start so that you don't just learn to code, but you solve work problems immediately.

I have experience working in: Java, Python, MATLAB/Octave, C, git, BASH, docker, SQL, numpy, keras, pandas and work with both Unix and Windows OS.

About the lesson

Beginners:
My job is to give you the tools to approach programming problems yourself, a key to programming is a strong foundation in how the basic building blocks of software work. We can assess where you currently are and build up from there. Whether we are starting with variables and assignment, or implementing ADTs from scratch, I have a set of examples you can take away with you and work on from the very first lesson.

Students:
My role is to help you with building a clean and easily maintainable code base with proven architectures. We will set a good foundation by first looking at what dev environment you use, how to manage builds and automate testing and how you can get the most out of your development setup.

We will approach theoretical problems through worked examples, making sure that you aren't just memorising words, but learning the implementations behind them. We will approach labs and projects by taking small steps and making sure to build in comments so you can look back at your work and recall later on for revision.

Career Changers:
Many of my students are looking to make a change or just add software and data science knowledge to their current skillset. I've built games, REST API's and simulations with students, helped clarify parts of online courses and provided direction for those who wanted to get into the field but weren't sure where to start.

If any of the above are you, let me know and let's start!

I get quite a few blank lesson requests, so if you can let me know a little about you and what you are looking to achieve, that would really help.
I usually conduct my lessons via Google Meet, I try and send a link via the Superprof messaging app well before the lesson starts so you can get everything set up and ready without too much stress.

Really enjoying working with James, a great laugh and some pretty hefty data analysis assignments, keep up the programming!

As a Data Science and artificial intelligence student who is Leon's classmate and team mate , I witnessed his extraordinary amount of talent in Data structure and algorithm and software engineering courses.
He is an expert in converting complex topics to the simplest and understandable subject.
He also is well organized, So If you need a proper schedule for your courses and you are struggling with programming concepts I highly recommend Leon.

Hey, my name's Travis, I'm a South African studying Data science and Artificial Intelligence at Maastricht University, Leon is the one I turn to to for any Data structure, programming architecture, java knowledge, general programming solutions & brainstorming sessions when I run into trouble. He has a fantastic way of explaining concepts in a way that you can easily relate to & understand, and that has helped me countless times. You could really not ask for a better tutor!

Leon helped me to really understand Java and everything that comes with it. I was really impressed by the speed of my progression. After quite some lessons I can totally recommend him as a tutor. He is always very friendly, patient and a good listener and gives amazing explanations, especially when it comes to your own questions.

Leon helped me with my java projects and assignments. He helped me with coding efficiently and solving problems easily. He has his own style to deal with problems. He splits problem s into sub-problems which helps you to understand it easier. He shared his experiences and notes which helped me a lot when I struggled with something. He always does his best and his best is more than enough! I personally strongly recommend Leon if you have problems with java and general problem analysis.

Sir Leon is an outstanding friendly teacher. His lessons are very productive, very engaging and I learn a lot in an hour. I have learnt new techniques in working out which makes it easy in maths. I find it very easy to understand his method. In the first lesson itself, he recognised my weak area and helped me to progress. I'm sure I will excel in maths learning with sir Leon. I have learnt math with couple of teachers but Sir Leon is the best. I would highly recommend him.

Instead of providing a first free lesson, I keep my prices below similarly qualified tutors in my subjects. I do this to reward the students who have stuck with me for many lessons, rather than having them subsidise newcomer's first lessons. I hope you understand.
