If you want to learn anything from computer engineering to graphics to software programming to artificial intelligence, this guy is the person to go to.

In short, Amir is one of the best persons you will ever meet, while also being probably the most knowledgeable computer tutor you will ever find. I highly recommend him.

Shoshana C.

8 Computer lessons

I have so much to thank Philip for. Not only is he very knowledgeable in computer science, he has a special way to communicate with his student, which makes his lessons 100 percent successful. My son (good student, strong in math, going to a decent college) had a very difficult time with Computer Science in his senior year. He was lost in class for his peers were already far advanced and his teacher conducted class for the advanced students. He vowed he would never study computer science.

Linda C.

9 Computer lessons

I would highly recommend Phillip! He has been great in teaching my client basic computer skills. He has been very patient and very understanding when working with someone that had zero computer skills and was scared to even touch a computer. Now my client is sending emails, researched how to fix things and learning how he can use the computer in his everyday life.
