Yousha S - Tutor in Johannesburg

I'm a final year BSc student majoring in astronomy, physics, computational and applied mathematics. I have a strong background in python and c++ development. I've enjoyed many years of mentoring students, I hope to provide anyone that comes under my tutelage with strong foundational knowledge that they can apply to throughout their academic career.

Currently completing my bachelor of science degree with majors in physics, astronomy, computational and applied mathematics with a minor in mathematics

Subjects taught
  • Math

    I was a top achiever for mathematics in my high school and continued to preform through my university career. I've had a lot of experience tutoring high school students (primarily matriculant) in pure maths privately so taking on new students won't be an issue. I hope to give any student under my tutelage a thorough understanding of the subject material as well as some tips and tricks to help them master mathematics at any level.

  • Python

    I have a strong background in python development, a vast majority of the subjects and my current reasearch project involve a large coding component (python and c++). I've been a lab demonstrator/tutor for computional and applied mathematics at my university where I taught introductory python to students. I'm well versed in both introductary and advanced python (as it pertains to applied mathematics and physics) so any student that wishes to learn something will be catered for.

  • Physical Science

    I am currently in the final year of my astrophysics degree. In every academic year since my first I've been in the top 10% of my faculty. I've also tutored students within my faculty for the university itself aswell as had my own experience of going through high school and undergrad recently so I have a good idea of how to teach students in away that they find engaging. I'm one of very few students in astronomy with a strong coding background so any student that chooses to work with me will also gain valuable knowledge on how to optimize thier work flows in physics using code. For high school and freshman BSc students this will be especially useful as you will be ahead of the curve in terms of your coding knowledge aswell as make your life a 100 times easier since you won't have to preform calculations an error analysis manually. It also prefer to build a students fundamental knowledge first as opposed to throwing problems and question papers at them, as this builds students that work smarter and are more versatile.
