I am a DPhil (PhD) at Oxford and a former teacher at LSE’s Data Science Institute, with master's degrees from LSE and Peking University, and an undergraduate degree from UIBE. I have worked across China and in the UK, but most of my teaching nowadays takes place online via Zoom. I have been giving Python programming lessons for 10 years and most of my students have stayed with me for 4-8 years, having gone from complete beginners to building sophisticated projects and landing positions at top tech companies and universities. Apart from my programming lessons, I have been teaching data engineering and statistics at LSE and Oxford. A typical lesson (1.5-2hrs) follows the Harvard CS50 syllabus and uses hands-on coding exercises, depending on the student's experience level and goals — we shall determine the best learning path during our first class. My teaching style is approachable and patient, welcoming students of all ages from children to seniors. Speaking both Mandarin Chinese and Russian, I understand how different thinking patterns can lead to common programming mistakes and know proven methods to overcome them. I pay particular attention to teaching fundamental programming concepts, debugging techniques, and problem-solving strategies with clear explanations of how code actually works, to make sure that students are well-prepared for real-world programming challenges as well as technical interviews and computer science coursework. All ages welcome - from curious 8-year-olds to career-changing professionals!

Alex made the lessons really engaging. When I first started learning with Alex I had a very basic understand of the English language, now I feel confident in any situation thanks to Alex. I would recommend Alex as he is the best teacher I have had for English.
I have been studying English with Alexander for two years, and during this time my level of English has improved significantly. He is an excellent teacher, and I highly recommend him both as a teacher in general and as an English tutor in particular.
Alexander pays great attention not only to grammar but also to correct pronunciation. Every lesson is very well-structured and includes a mix of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, and various exercises. The programme was always rich and challenging, yet at the same time engaging and enjoyable.
The lessons were held in a very positive and motivating atmosphere. Alexander has a unique ability to explain and present new topics clearly, making even difficult aspects of English easy to understand. He is also very responsible and well-organised. From time to time, we even had lessons outdoors, which created a friendly atmosphere and gave me extra motivation to practise speaking English.
Thanks to his professionalism and teaching style, learning English has been both effective and inspiring. I would highly recommend Alexander to anyone looking to improve their English.
A highly competent, erudite teacher and a wonderful person.
