About

Software engineer with 7 years at a Fortune 500 tech company and a Master's in Computer Science from UIUC (Machine Learning track). I also co-built AI agents at a YC-backed startup.

I've been tutoring for 5+ years and genuinely enjoy breaking down complex topics into something that clicks. Whether you're just starting out or working through a tricky project, I'll meet you where you are.

What I teach:

- Python fundamentals (from absolute zero to confident)

- Web scraping (BeautifulSoup, Selenium, Playwright, Firecrawl)

- Building REST APIs with FastAPI and Django

- AI/LLM integration (OpenAI API, Claude API, LangChain, RAG)

- Data automation and scripting

- Debugging and code review

How sessions work:

- Live 1-on-1 via Zoom or Google Meet

- Sessions recorded so you can rewatch anytime

- Code examples and notes sent after each session

- I adapt to your pace and learning style

Send me a message describing what you want to learn and I'll put together a plan before our first session.

Ive been working with Seward for over a year now on graduate level statistics, data science, and computer science-related topics. Hes thorough, willing to explain key concepts, and will always help fortify or build on your existing knowledge base. Whether thats revisiting nested looping or how the chain rule applies to back-propagation, hes covered it all. Most importantly, he always takes the time to tie it back to the lessons, so you can continue weaving a thread through your coursework!

Extremely professional and I look forward to continuing working with him in the future.
