ABOUT ME
I'm here to help people move forward. Special offer for students.
I'm here to help people move forward. Special offer for students.
Computing Enthusiast with 20+ years of research and advancing technologies from HW/SW system development up to toolchains and tuning of large industry appliances.
I am not raising money on (verified) students, i.e.:
- any question, clarification or basic discussion like on StackOverflow is free
- usually i suggest 60$/hour or fixed 100$ with unlimited hours. latter is useful if you have large task (like writing compiler for some educational language)
This is not my regular job - I'm just enjoying helping people to get better.
So be patient if I'm not responding quickly - I have regular job and family.
Usually I'm helping with low-level, system or parallel programming (unpopular topics here). Rarely with hardware architecture tasks.

Alexey has helped me tremendously while I go through with learning x86 Assembly. Spends as much time as necessary explaining each step, and will go back and answer questions if anything needs clarification. Also very fast to respond out of session if you end up with any additional questions.

In helping me with my x86 assembly university class, he ensures he explains in great detail the concepts and logic of what is being done. Is ready to go prior to session start and during sessions will stop and explain any questions you may have.
