Iulian's Computer Science Tutoring
About
I love to teach my students about computers and programming. On a daily basis, as a PhD student at Harvard University, in my research I work with many programming languages such as python, java, C, C++, hardware description languages and parallel programming languages.
I build my tutoring around the learning needs of my students. I have been teaching Computer Science courses at all levels from Graduate down to Secondary School. At Harvard University I'm a Teaching Fellow for CS246/CS146 Computer Architecture where we mostly use C/C++ and Bash/Linux.
I have also taught Operating Systems at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya that involved C/C++ and Linux and I have been helping students preparing for the Computer Science Olympiad at the School of Informatics and Statistics in Barcelona.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I first try to understand the learning needs of my students. Then I design a schedule that fits the learning goals. Periodically while we make progress through the learning goals we review the student's learning goal and learning satisfaction.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a Computer Science PhD student at Harvard University. I'm working at Harvard as a Teaching Fellow and I bring the added value and know-hows from the Harvard classroom to my tutoring.
How did you get started teaching?
I started helping many of my friends who were struggling with Science and Technology topics and especially with Computer Science and Programming. They at my university (UPC) in Barcelona I started to help as a Teaching Fellow for different courses such as Operating Systems.
What types of students have you worked with?
Graduate, Undergraduate, High School and Secondary School students.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Computer Science is learnt by doing. It's very useful to try to implement ideas through coding rather than just think about the different challenges a problem has. This process of thinking is reinforced throughout my tutoring sessions.
