The best doesn't just code:
They ask why
Anyone can write code. The best know why they're writing it. We teach that.
About the Program
This tutoring program bridges the gap between classroom learning and real-world application. Students will learn how to identify problems, research solutions, and build software prototypes.

Why This Program Is Different
We don't just teach coding. We transform students into problem-solvers and innovators.
Real-World Impact
Students build solutions to genuine problems, not just solve fabricated logic puzzles prepared by teachers and professors.
Not a Cookie Cutter Narrative
Develop a unique, personal story that stands out from generic summer camp experiences, showcasing your genuine problem-solving journey.
Personalized Recommendations
Instructors will personally craft recommendation letters for exceptional students as they approach college applications.
Meet Your Instructor
Leading a team that productionizes research ideas for data center optimizations, turning cutting-edge research into practical solutions.
Founded two startups during college, gaining firsthand experience in identifying problems and building solutions from scratch.
Always working on something new, whether it's a startup or a personal project.
Graduated from Northwestern University with a strong foundation in both technical skills and entrepreneurial thinking.
TA'd the entrepreneurship course for 4 quarters, where I helped students identify problems and build solutions.
"From my experience in hiring, I've noticed a common misconception: that being a great software engineer is all about technical skills. While technical proficiency is important, equally valuable are communication skills and the ability to identify meaningful problems. Universities rarely teach problem identification, yet it's a skill that, when developed early, opens doors to tremendous growth opportunities. This program aims to develop that skill in high school students."
