Hi, I’m Saima Yunus, a computer engineering graduate from San Jose State University with a passion for teaching and technology. I specialize in tutoring college students, adult learners, and middle/high school students in programming and computer science.

With 2-3 years of programming experience, I excel in C++ and Python, focusing on object-oriented programming and algorithms. I’ve also studied web technologies like HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and Java. As a freelance instructor at Elite Prep, I’ve taught Java and Python, emphasizing real-world problem-solving and coding practice.

During my Cisco internship, I improved the Python-based testing framework for their VPP team, boosting performance by 10%, and contributed to technical documentation for FD.io. I’m currently preparing for a CompTIA A+ certification to expand my expertise.

Highly Recommend Saima

Saima is my favorite tutor. She is very knowledgeable of data structures and can provide wisdom for each line of code. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to get started with C++ data structures. She also creates a very comfortable environment for her students to learn
