About the lesson
PhD candidate Data Science, Data Analysis, Quantitative Methods, Python, Matlab, Statistical Packages/Software, Stata, R, Database, SQL, Oracle
SERVICES
I can offer my assistance with Data Analysis, Data Science, Quantitative Methods, Analysis, Statistical Modelling, Forecast, Regression, Coding, Python, Matlab, Excel statistical software and packages such as Stata, R and Database languages such as SQL, Oracle, MySql and other Business-related subjects (with coding and programming if you are interested in it).
I understand that there are different kinds of learning methods, so as long as you can find your style and the appropriate method, I believe that you can get twice the result with half the effort. I have been told to be good at breaking down complex statistical and modelling concepts, explaining them in diagrams, and also relating them to their uses in our daily lives. I can help you to understand statistics, econometrics, linear regression, forecast modelling, statistical modelling, quantitative methods, as well as introducing you to the fast-growing field of Data Analysis and Data Science. I can teach how to use Python, Matlab, Stata, R, Sas, R, Excel, SQL, Oracle, MySql and many more.

I am learning Python for use in a professional environment and Andrea has been extremely helpful due to his expertise in the subject and his willingness to focus on areas where I need the most help
I have been working with Andrea for months now. Not only did he helped me to plan a thorough study plan for Data Analytics and Python with applications in Finance, but also he is accommodating with the choice of projects we work on.
Due to my studies, I have a particular interest in Finance. We, therefore, worked with Andrea to improve my level in Python for Data Analytics and started to build models related to my field of study. Thanks to him, I have now many advanced projects on my GitHub page related to my field of study. This really helped to improve my resume and ultimately made me a better applicant during job applications in Financial Modelling related jobs.
I cannot stress further that Andrea is the perfect professor if you want to start your journey with Python, Data Analytics or simply have an interest in Finance. From beginner to advanced every student would find the path that suits them under his supervision.
I strongly recommend to work with AndreaReally took time out to make sure I understood and was happy with understanding the concepts, where I didn’t understand he was extremely helpful! Despite the fact that I came to him with short notice, he helped me all through the semester to really produce work I was happy with!

Andrea is a patient, responsible and resourceful tutor. I approached Andrea for some help with learning the SQL concepts. Though we came across some unfamiliar problems, he spent time to really learn/ work out the problems and make sure I fully understand them. Each tutoring session with Andrea is high-quality and dedicated, while being fun and interactive at the same time. I highly recommend Andrea as a tutor to whomever needed.
Andrea has a great knowledge of his subjects and explains them clearly as well as providing access to further study materials and useful resources if needed

1) Can you tell us about your first experience using a computer?
I remember the first computer we had at home, it was probably 1994. It came in a big plastic box with a multitude of floppy disks. I remember my dad using our family computer for work and fun during his leisure time. I still feel that feeling, everything was new to me, the smell of the plastic, the keyboard, the monitor, and of course the whole experience of using it. It did not have any graphical interface, it was all lines of commands in this black screen that years later I surprisingly still use. I remember my dad wrote down on a piece of paper the list of steps I had to follow to launch my favorite games. That was where it all begins.
02
2) What is the technological evolution that has marked you most and what will be, in your eyes, a turning point in this field?
Personally I really think smartphones, They had a great impact on my life and still nowadays sometimes I find myself thinking how cool and useful they are in our everyday life, especially for active and busy people as a tutor. They opened up a lot of fo opportunities to get to know with several apps that had and have been helping on many different aspects of my life, from leisure to work, knowledge, and productivity. Speaking of smartphones and their everyday life usage, I believe the augment really will mark a big leap forward.
03
3) Explain your expertise, your interest in it and, more broadly, its importance in the computer world.
I have not studied computer science, therefore I consider myself a user, even though for research and work I code and even develop small programs. I am interested in many languages and different packages, personally, I extensively use both Python and Matlab but I have 4 years of work experience with SQL and its similar languages. I truly believe that we are moving towards a more and more a civilization where coding is central in all aspect of life. By life I literally mean life, not working life. Therefore development and expertise in coding, no matter what is the language or the framework, will surely give someone a conspicuous advantage for the years ahead.
04
4) Do so-called 'visionaries', such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg inspire you or do you have other role models?
I am completing my PhD and I am an academic-oriented person, I have always found inspiration and motivation from greater scientists and thinkers, surely some of the so-called 'visionaries' are so and we all have a lot to learn from them.
5) Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.
I tutor different subjects, which at first glance do not seem to be very related to each other, as a consequence the kind of experiences and anecdotes related to them are very heterogeneous. Many are funny and constitute good memories. I always like to think about my days at school compared to later stages of my life where, even though I have found myself learning something new, it was not in an educational path within a certain institution. I miss the feeling of being a student, sitting in a class, sharing the feelings, emotions, and destination of the journey with my classmates. That is something we need to cherish. Having good school memories is such an important treasure one would bring forever with him or her for the rest of the life. My goals therefore here is to make students confident and enjoy the learning process as much as they can to build good memories and humanity, besides good scores at exams.
6) What would you say to an uncomfortable person in front of a screen who says that "IT is too complicated"?
I think the IT world is highly misunderstood by outsiders. I can see recently an effort by mani to communicate and educate the general audience towards computer science and IT in general. It is a natural process that takes time. After all, IT speaks its own language, it is an ecosystem of different languages and fields. It is the own world. I would recommend people to overthink but instead, focus on something easy and well defined. For instance, a Python package, getting familiar with what it is watching some video online and then start to practice it, with hands-on real projects, before you even realize one will be in the IT world, without even realizing it. Thing is never complicated, probably you are not looking at it too close as you should. The most complicated thing can be broken down into simple parts and after a while, with patience, the big picture emerges without even the need to be conscious about it. Yet, I would recommend some preferential channels such as Python, the language is intuitive and powerful, it is helping millions of people around the globe to become IT experts in a matter of monhts.
7) What are your other passions, related or non-related to computers?
I am a photography enthusiast, I mainly shoot abstract photography. I also practice boxe and I like to keep learning online about science, coding, and social media.
8) What makes you a Superprof in IT?
I like to think that my hard work is what makes the difference. Being prepared and confident come with hard work and sacrifices but the benefits are life-lasting and the boost you gain in these two fundamental feature each good teacher must have, is enormous and it is fully transmitted to the student. My advice to new tutors is, therefore, to be prepared, as much a student would like to be prepared for an exam.05
