About Phillip

Hello, my name is Phillip, and I am passionate about helping students unlock their full potential in computer science and programming. With a Master’s degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Waterloo and years of experience teaching both beginners and advanced students, I bring a proven blend of academic excellence and hands-on expertise to every lesson. My teaching style is structured yet flexible: I break down complex ideas into approachable steps, encourage active problem-solving, and guide students toward independent mastery. Whether we are working through the foundations of coding or tackling advanced algorithms for contests like the Canadian Computing Competition (CCC) and the USA Computing Olympiad (USACO), my priority is to build confidence, sharpen skills, and foster a genuine love for programming. What sets me apart is my combination of real-world engineering experience and contest coaching success. I have taught students as young as six all the way to pre-university learners, preparing them for AP Computer Science, national competitions, and higher education. Many of my students have not only improved their grades but also gained the confidence to compete and achieve recognition in programming contests. These lessons are ideal for high school and advanced middle school students, especially those preparing for AP exams, computer science contests, or university studies. My approach ensures that every student receives personalized guidance, a clear learning path, and the support they need to succeed.

About the class

As a tutor, I focus on building strong fundamentals first, then guiding students toward advanced problem-solving in a structured way. My lessons combine step-by-step explanations, interactive coding practice, and real contest-style challenges so that students gain both confidence and speed in programming.

Teaching Methodology & Techniques

Begin with clear explanations of concepts using simple examples.

Reinforce understanding through live coding and hands-on practice.

Encourage students to analyze problems systematically before writing code.

Provide progressive challenges ranging from basic exercises to advanced algorithmic problems inspired by contests like CCC and USACO.

Offer personalized feedback and strategies to improve debugging, time management, and coding style.

Typical Lesson Plan

Concept Review – Introduction or recap of the core topic (e.g., recursion, sorting, dynamic programming).

Guided Practice – Work through examples together with active participation.

Independent Problem-Solving – Student applies knowledge on contest-style tasks.

Feedback & Optimization – Review solutions, discuss efficiency, and explore improvements.

Wrap-Up & Homework – Key takeaways plus targeted exercises for continued progress.

What Sets Me Apart

University of Waterloo graduate with a strong background in computer engineering and software development.

Contest coaching experience: I have successfully guided students to prepare for competitions like CCC, USACO, and AP Computer Science.

Practical knowledge: Beyond teaching theory, I bring experience in real-world software engineering and algorithm-heavy projects.

Structured progression: From complete beginners to advanced competitive programmers, I adapt lessons to each student’s pace and goals.

Who Are These Lessons For?

High school students preparing for AP Computer Science, CCC, or USACO.

University-bound learners who want to strengthen algorithmic thinking before CS programs.

Motivated beginners looking to move beyond basic coding into advanced problem-solving.

Aspiring competitive programmers aiming to sharpen their skills and reach the next contest level.
