Hi, my name is Hanah Rahman.
Here are a few facts about me:-
- I am studying Computer Science at MIT.
- I have a pet dog, a gecko, and a turtle.
- I am an Overwatch nerd (I love video games).
I learnt to code at the age of 8. After this, my insatiable appetite to learn Computer Science grew further, which lead me to learn multiple programming languages including. These include: C, C++, C#, JAVA, Javascript, Swift, Python, Mathematica, MATLAB, Robotics (VEXCODE, VEX-VR, VEX Competitions)
I also am an expert in Quantum Programming using: Qiskit, Cirq, Q#, Qasm, BlueQat, Silq, Pennylane + Strawberry Fields.

In college and high school I tutored STEM subjects for both honors students and special education. I took a certification class in teaching neurodiverse students.

I worked as a Quantum Benchmarking Researcher at MIT Lincoln Labs utilizing the famous Ising Model and Monte Carlo Methods. I also maintained our dilution refrigerators for our Superconducting Qubit Systems.
Fast Forward to today I currently work at a startup focusing on Quantum Machine Learning and Sensing for the prediction and treatment of Neurodegenerative diseases. I also utilize photonics, robotics and topology to create the devices we make and test them.

I take great pride in helping others break down and simplify complex problems, using sound reasoning. I encourage students to think more abstractly because a lot of the time, especially in math, we see people become fixated only on the details, which has been proven to be ineffective. I can empathize with students who may need a little more time to understand concepts and I will always adjust to the learning style of each student. My goal as a tutor is to get students excited about learning, so that one day, when they are sitting in a class thinking "this is so boring and difficult, I'll never do well in this class", they will catch themselves and remember the techniques I have shown them to ace that class which they thought impossible!
