He possesses tremendous technical acumen and is a very accomplished academically. He has a pleasant disposition and was very effective within our allotted time to help me complete the Python activities I needed to submit as part of the project’s requirements. I would recommend George to any student who needs assistance with Python. I am also very pleased with Wyzant for offering such a professional interface for students like me to seek assistance that provides a clear return on investment.

Nyssa C.

2 Python lessons

I am in my first semester of graduate school and programming classes so I needed someone to tutor me who has in depth experience and understanding of Python and is not just a Python hobbyist. Then I found Mike! Mike helped me with functions, ranges, and functions in lists as I had hit a wall with this basic concept. Mike was able to work out innovative solutions to my problems and teach me exactly how Python was interpreting each line of code and what it was spitting back out.

Sachid (such-id) B.

30 Python lessons

When I retook this class recently with David tutoring me, I gained a much deeper understanding of Python and how to use it to solve complex problems that were handed to me in both the coding projects and the coding questions on exams. Overall, he is a solid tutor and I HIGHLY recommend anyone struggling with Python to reach out to him. He's worth every penny!
