About Patrick
Hello, my name is Patrick and I tutor students and working adults in the field of computer science. I teach areas that I am proficient in and enjoy learning more about:
- Python
- Linux & Bash Scripting
- Intro to Computer Science and Data Structures classes in Java, C, and Python
- AP Computer Science
- MIPS, RISC-V, and LC-3/LC-4 Assembly languages
Background
I got started tutoring math and science classes during my undergrad at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I've always enjoyed being able to pass on my knowledge and problem solving skills to others.
I double majored in Computer Science and Zoology at UW Madison and graduated with distinction with a 3.7 GPA. I got a job as a software engineer, working on supercomputers for the company Cray, which made many of the world's fastest computers since the '70s. I moved on after 5 years there, and since I have made tutoring computer science and programming my primary job.
Areas of Expertise
At Cray, I lived and breathed the Linux command-line environment, working with lots shell scripting, but even more so, with the Python programming language. Python quickly became my favorite language, and as I worked with it, I honed my programming skills.
Before Cray, my main language was Java, which I used for the majority of my classes, as well as for building an Android app and working as a developer on the student-run tutoring website.
I also have experience with Git, SQL, and HTTP requests.
Feel free to ask any questions you have. I hope to hear from you!
As a tutor, besides helping with programming, I can provide a perspective into the computer industry, helping guide my students to particular areas of interest. I am knowledgeable about the educational tools and classes around programming. I enjoy being able to help someone go from a novice to a professional programmer, or from struggling student to a confident one.

Perfect! Patrick was very knowledgeable and helpful! He also offered some insight on how to improve in the subject matter!
Perfect! Patrick has been one of the best tutors I have ever had! He makes difficult concepts seem so simple, and gives you in depth reasons why things are the way they are. Most importantly, he is incredibly nice and easy to talk to! I would absolutely recommend him to any one else looking to improve their Comp Sci skills.
