Systems & Architecture Tutoring
Operating systems, computer organization, assembly, and where hardware meets software.
Systems courses are where a lot of CS students hit a wall. Page tables, scheduling, pipeline hazards, and cache coherence are interconnected ideas that have to be unpacked carefully. I help you build a mental model that actually survives the final.
Best for undergraduate and graduate students in operating systems, computer organization, or computer architecture.
What I help with
Common things students bring to sessions
- Page tables, TLBs, and virtual memory keep getting mixed up.
- I can read MIPS or x86 assembly but cannot write it from a C function.
- Process scheduling and synchronization (mutexes, semaphores) confuse me.
- Pipeline hazards, forwarding, and stalls are abstract until I draw them out.
- Cache coherence (MESI, write-back vs write-through) is unintuitive.
Topics covered
How sessions work
Three steps from stuck to unstuck.
Free 15-minute call
Tell me your course, the assignment, your deadline, and what you are stuck on. I will let you know if I can help.
Schedule your session
We pick times that work around your week. Single sessions, weekly slots, or short bursts before exams, all fine.
Walk in stuck, walk out unstuck
We work through your actual code, problem set, or concepts together until it clicks. You leave with notes you can use.
What you'll walk away with
Real outcomes, not just an hour spent.
What students have said
Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor
"Mohamed has been incredibly helpful to me across multiple courses. He provided strong support in CMPEN 271, where we worked extensively with FPGA systems, and consistently made complex concepts much easier to understand. He has also been a great resource in other classes, such as AI, data-driven courses, and app programming, always taking the time to explain the material clearly and effectively. His patience, knowledge, and ability to break down difficult topics make him an excellent tutor."
Exceptional Computer Science Tutor
"I had many lessons with Mohamed, and I learned a great deal from him. Some of the topics we covered included Java polymorphism, Java GUI projects such as JavaFX, multi-threading and concurrency programming, and even building a calculator compiler in C++. What I especially appreciated about Mohamed's lessons was his dedication beyond our scheduled sessions. He often took extra time outside of class to prepare explanations and examples tailored to how I learn best."
Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor
"I learned computer architecture and assembly language from Mohamed. He's a very patient tutor and explains concepts very well. He's also very punctual. I was very scared before my final exam and was struggling, however he helped me get my confidence back and taught me concepts very well at a good pace as per my learning style so that I could be best prepared for my final. In the end, it all worked out for me."
