Raza was instrumental in helping me understand C++. He helped explain key concepts in a way that I could grasp and understand. I will definitely be working with him again as other projects come up.

Raza was very patient and knowledgeable. He is a great teacher and makes sure you understand the concept about Python and does not make you feel inferior. I failed this course last year and plan to retake next term. Hopefully under his mentorship I will pass this time with flying colors.
