About Zinnia
I hold a strong academic background in computer science and have been teaching Python for over 5 years to university students, professionals, and hobby learners. My experience includes conducting workshops, 1-on-1 coaching, and curriculum development for Python basics to advanced applications. I enjoy helping students turn abstract code into something they truly understand and enjoy writing. My approach focuses on simplifying complex topics by breaking them down into understandable segments. I use visuals, real-life analogies, and mini-projects to make Python not just easy to learn but also enjoyable. Whether students aim to excel in coursework or develop skills for their career, I provide practical and flexible teaching. Outside teaching, I stay involved in the programming community and explore emerging trends in Python libraries and tools. I bring this updated knowledge into my lessons to keep them relevant. My teaching is not just about passing exams—it's about building coding confidence and problem-solving ability that lasts.

My Python lessons are structured to make programming logical, hands-on, and goal-oriented. I begin with a short theory session that introduces the topic and its relevance, followed by guided coding exercises that reinforce understanding. Lessons are interactive and paced according to the student’s learning level. I provide real-time feedback and practical tips to help students avoid common coding mistakes. I specialise in teaching Functions and File Handling—two crucial areas that give students control over their programs and help manage data efficiently. Students learn how to write modular code using functions, and how to read/write data using different file types in Python. These skills are essential for academic projects and real-world programming tasks alike. Each lesson also incorporates practice problems and homework support to prepare students for tests and assignments. Whether it's solving university lab questions, completing final projects, or preparing for technical interviews, my lessons focus on clarity, confidence, and consistent improvement. I also provide code review and debugging support as needed.
