Personal Description:
Hi there, my name is Nikunj (Nik). I am a data scientist working in Dublin. I have a PhD, Masters and Bachelors degree in computational biology. Please read my reviews! I have been tutoring for over 8 years. I put in several hours of effort prior to each session so that you get the best understanding and help from each session. I have ample experience of delivering high quality classes over Skype/ Teams during the pandemic.
Tutoring Experience:
Previously, when I was based in London, I helped university students with their programming assignments. Also, I was part of YELP where we dedicated an hour every week to high school kids on a one-to-one basis.
I have tutored several students and professionals from this site. I have undertaken a Teaching module during my PhD degree, and I have taught students both at bachelors and masters level, along with JC and LC levels.
Approach to Grinds:
My approach is simple: I teach you the basics and the introduction, make things clear, short simple questions to make sure that you follow and a few tasks until the next session. It doesn't matter if you get the answer right or wrong (we would work on that), the approach matters (correct approach means correct way of thinking).

NikunjFrom Jonathan (5/5): (University Computer Skills) Nik was very helpful when I was struggling with resitting a logic module in college. He outlined things very clearly and found lots of useful resources I could use to practice. He is also very friendly and the sessions were comfortable and informal.
From Aoife (/5): (University Computer Skills) Excellent teacher! Great explanations, makes things easy to understand and patient
Reply from Nikunj: Thank you Aoife, you have an interesting project and I am happy to mentor and tutor you through it.
From Brendan (/5): (University Maths) Nikunj is a professional, who has the patience to explain topics in depth, while also having the punctuality and awareness of time management. He allows a mental bandwidth for each query that I have, even outside the session, so that we may follow up with the topics within the next session.
I would recommend Nikunj, as he has been very straightforward to work with, and has provided energy towards each session.

From Luke (/5): (University Computer Skills) Nik is great tutor with an understanding of all aspects of computer science. I would definitely recommend him if you are a beginner of the subject like myself or just looking to build on existing knowledge. He does online tutoring too which is very useful. Highly recommended.
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Luke for the feedback. You are a quick learner, and I wish you all the best for your exams!
From Eoin (/5): (University Computer Skills) My experience with Nik has been very positive. He is very knowledgeable in all areas of Data Analytics and has a natural talent of being clearly able to explain the material.
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Eoin for such positive feedback. And I am happy to be able to help you move forward in the field of data analytics and R.
From Minkun (/5): (University Computer Skills) He is a real deal! Super smart and super caring!
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Minkun. You are a really smart student, all I had to do was to push you in the right direction. Keep up the good work!
From Duane (/5): (Junior Cycle Maths) A good tutor that teaches well.
From David (/5): (University Computer Skills)
Reply from Nikunj: David was easy to tutor, we worked on connecting Mongodb with Python and Spark, and did some analyses in Spark.
From Catherine (/5): (University Computer Skills) I found Nik, excellent to work with, very helpful and a pleasure to collaborate with my particular need, being r programming and a really great ambassador for first tutors…
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Catherine, it was a pleasure tutoring you.
From michael (/5): (Junior Cycle Maths) Nick was very reliable and patient and i would highly recommend him as a tutor.
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Michael, I was very happy to tutor your son. All the best to him.
From Maeve (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) My daughter needed to pass maths in order to qualify for a place in University. Maths was probably one of her weakest subjects. She had a number of online lessons with Nik and he was very patient, reliable and pleasant. Not only did she pass her maths but got over 70%! I would highly recommend Nik. Thank you Nik!
Reply from Nikunj: Hi Maeve, thank you for your feedback. I am very happy that she got 70%. All the best to her.
From Conor (/5): (University Maths) My session with Nik went above expectations.
I came to him to help me pass an exam I had little or no preperation for.
By the end of a short 2 hour session I left with a grasp on all exam questions and also a understanding of the concepts behind each question.
Easy to get along with and explained the questions in a simple understandable manor.

Reply from Nikunj: Hi Conor, it was a pleasure tutoring you. You had a good understanding of the area. All the best for your exam today!
From Shenda (/5): (University Maths) Cannot recommend enough! We were able to cover a large amount of course material in such a short amount of time and nik was beyond helpful, I went from failing the class at midterms to achieving a high 2:1 overall in the module, and feel much more comfortable progressing in the maths element of my degree. Completely changed my whole attitude towards maths and can’t thank him enough!
Reply from Nikunj: Hi Shenda, thanks for such a positive feedback. I am glad I was able to help you out! All the best ahead.
From Alison (/5): (University Computer Skills) Helped me with an assignment I was finding challenging. He was very prepared having looked at the assignment and gone through my script before the lesson and was happy to answer any questions in the weeks after (even when he was on holidays!)
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks for the feedback Alison. It was a good experience to tutor you. All the best for your exams!
From Filip (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) Very patient and explains everything very well. Always on time and reliable. Helped me take a big step forward in maths. Highly recommend.
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Filip. It is always nice to tutor you, you pick up things quickly and practicing makes it even better!
From Jennifer (/5): (Senior Cycle Maths) So far Nikunj has proven himself to be a great tutor and a lovely guy.
My son is studying for Leaving Cert and struggles with maths.
Nik is patient and interested in his subject… He is also great value for money and a pleasure to have in the house.
We are very happy with him.

From Hugo (/5): (University Computer Skills) He comes 15 mins early and only leaves when the material is fully revised and understood. Very kind and friendly, and goes at the pace necessary to understand difficult concepts. He revised all my work at home and sent me it when he finished. A great tutor!
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks for the feedback Hugo, always a pleasure to tutor you :)
From Emma (/5): (Senior Cycle Physics) We have been in contact as my nephew is being tutored I will have to wait for feed back from him.
From Ali (/5): (University Maths) great tutor
Reply from Nikunj: Thanks Ali :)
