Al Nikolov assisted a student from the College of Staten Island in debugging and testing encryption functions in Python. They worked on a substitution cipher and a shift cipher, correcting errors in the code and writing assertions to validate the results. The next lesson is scheduled for tomorrow at the same time.
String Parameters
Return Values
Testing and Assertions
String Identifier
Method Calls
Alexey taught Mawuli 3 months ago
Al Nikolov assisted Mawuli Otoo with debugging and refining Python code for two tasks: a matrix addition function and a word translation function. Their Python programming lesson focused on code efficiency and accuracy, and they successfully completed both tasks. They scheduled their next lesson for Wednesday, August 6th at midnight, agreeing to shorten it to one hour.
Matrices Addition
String Manipulation
Code Efficiency

Al Nikolov tutored Mawuli Otoo on Python programming, specifically on implementing and testing functions for leap year determination, finding the maximum absolute difference in a list, and calculating matrix statistics. Mawuli wrote code and tests for each problem, receiving feedback from Al on logic, syntax, and testing strategies. They scheduled another lesson for later that night to continue working on practice problems.
Nested Loops for Matrix Traversal
Assert Statements
Tuple Usage
Testing Corner Cases
Leap Year Logic
Alexey taught Mawuli 3 months ago
Al Nikolov collaborated with Mawuli Otoo on a Python programming task, focusing on developing a function to analyze the character composition of a file. During their lesson, they successfully implemented the function, crafted a test file with precise character counts, and utilized assert statements to validate its output. They have scheduled another two-hour lesson for Monday at 2:00 p.m., and Al has offered to share the code on GitHub.
File Analysis Function
Test-Driven Development
File Handling in Python
Assert Statements in Testing
Line-by-Line File Processing

Al Nikolov and Mawuli Otoo collaborated on Python coding exercises, specifically `clean_list` and `list_subtraction`, focusing on in-place list modification and duplicate removal. Mawuli practiced implementing these functions and writing corresponding tests. They plan to continue with more coding exercises next weekend, focusing on earlier time slots due to Al's availability.
While Loops
Importing Functions from Modules
Assert Statements for Testing
List Modification in Place
Sets for Duplicate Removal

Learning Python in Canada? Let’s Break a Few Myths First
Myth #1: “Python is only for computer science majors”
Not true. Walk into classrooms at UBC, McMaster, or the University of Calgary, and you’ll find biology students using Python for data analysis, business students running simulations, and psychology students writing scripts for research. High schoolers in Toronto and Halifax are learning it in introductory computer science classes. Even humanities students are picking it up for text analysis or automating spreadsheets.
Python’s versatility is exactly what makes it useful. You don’t need to be in tech to benefit from it. You just need a reason and someone to guide you through the early confusion.
Myth #2: “I need to be good at math to code in Python”
Math helps, sure, but Python isn’t math. It’s logic, structure, and clarity. Most learners in Canada start with print statements, lists, loops, and basic functions. Nothing too scary.
Plenty of students at colleges in Winnipeg or Surrey who once struggled in math classes now write Python scripts with ease. Why? Because good tutoring teaches you how to think, not just how to code. You’ll learn how to break problems into steps, not memorize formulas.
Myth #3: “I can learn everything on YouTube or with free courses”
You can start there, and many do. But if you’ve ever watched five different videos that all contradict each other or used a free course that left you more confused than confident, you already know the downside.
A private Python tutor gives you structure. You don’t waste time guessing what to learn next. Whether you’re working on a class assignment in Ottawa or building a personal project in Regina, you can ask real questions and get real answers tailored to your pace.
Myth #4: “I’m too old to learn Python now”
False. Many adult learners in Canada start with zero coding background. Some want a career shift, others just want to automate tasks at work or learn something new. Age isn’t the barrier. Hesitation is.
Tutors help remove that hesitation. They take your goals seriously and adjust their teaching style to fit your background, whether you're 16 or 60.
Final Truth: Python Is for Everyone, But Guidance Helps
Python is flexible, beginner-friendly, and widely used in Canadian industries. But it still comes with a learning curve. The key is not giving up when it feels unfamiliar. With the right tutor, you’ll learn how to think like a programmer, not just copy code.
So forget the myths. Whether you’re studying in Montreal, working in Calgary, or exploring something new in St. John’s, Python is one of the most valuable skills you can build today. And it’s never been more accessible.
