"I have been programming in Python for over 5 years and use it daily in my current role as a Data Analyst. I hold a Data Analytics degree from the University of Miami, where I took multiple courses specifically focused on Python programming. My coursework covered topics like Python data structures, object-oriented programming, API development, web scraping, NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, and machine learning applications. Through self-study and on-the-job experience, I have also become proficient in Flask, SQLAlchemy, streamlit, and other popular Python libraries and frameworks.

For the past 3 years, I have taught college students in Python programming on a part-time basis. I typically work with students one-on-one to supplement their classroom learning and help them complete Python-based assignments. My approach is to assess each student's current skill level and background knowledge, then break concepts down into simple, easy-to-understand pieces. I've found hands-on examples using real code help students grasp the practical application of Python. I emphasize good coding habits and style to set students up for long-term success. My students have ranged from total beginners to intermediate coders working on advanced projects. Helping others learn and grow their programming abilities is extremely rewarding for me." less...
