Weekly 1:1 programming mentorship

Stop surviving assignments. Start building skill.

If every week brings a new coding panic, one rescue session is not the whole answer. Work with Joseph every week on a roadmap for your course, with practice and checkpoints that show what you can do when AI is closed.

Weekly 1:1 at $40/hour CAD · No long-term contract

What the plan includes

A consistent system for getting better.

The work is tailored to your course and pace, but the rhythm stays simple.

Step 01

Pick the real target

We map your course, upcoming assessments, current blockers, and what you want to do independently by term end.

Step 02

Meet and work every week

Bring live code, questions, and work in progress. We debug together and make the underlying idea clear.

Step 03

Prove what changed

Use short AI-closed checkpoints and practice between sessions to see what you can now do without help.

Best fit

You need more than a one-off fix.

  • You are behind across several topics.
  • AI gets assignments done, but exams still feel risky.
  • You want weekly structure and accountability.
  • You are building toward projects or interviews as well as grades.

Start smaller if needed

One session may be enough.

If a single bug, topic, or deadline is the issue, start with free triage and a focused 1:1 tutoring session. I will not sell a semester plan when a smaller fix makes sense.

See if this fits

Tell me what this semester looks like.

Your course, next deadline, and where you want to be by finals. I'll recommend weekly mentorship or a smaller tutoring sprint.

No long-term contract. We can start with a focused session if that is the better fit.
