Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!
