What to Expect

This is a competitive fellowship designed to push students beyond their current technical and intellectual limits.


Students should expect to be challenged technically, creatively, and personally. The pace is fast, the standards are high, and consistent effort is required.


This is not a passive course. Students will actively build, test, fail, iterate, and improve while developing real competency in artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship.

Testimonials

University of Pennsylvania Double Major in Computer Science & Wharton School of Business

Samuel has been an incredible mentor for me in both AI and entrepreneurship. During my senior year of high school, he brought me up to speed on the latest innovations in Natural Language Processing, including Mamba and Transformers, and armed me with the knowledge to work on cutting edge research in machine translation in just 3 months. 


Over the next few months, Samuel continued to help me with topics in entrepreneurship and applied AI, which eventually culminated in a startup involving Retrieval Augmented Generation. He has deep and expansive knowledge in both AI and entrepreneurship, stays constantly up to date on the latest developments, and explains complex topics in a clear way using diagrams and coding examples. The foundations that I built with his mentorship have continued to help me grow, eventually helping me secure research opportunities and a dual degree between Wharton and CS at Penn.

Princeton University Major in Computer Science

Samuel is a brilliant machine learning researcher who has had an great impact as a mentor to my daughter's ML research endeavor during her Junior year. From the outset, he helped her refine an ambitious idea into a well-scoped, rigorous project, patiently teaching her how to conduct thorough literature reviews, frame a compelling research narrative, and select the right tools and models for each stage of the work.


What really impressed me is that his well thought-out and creative teaching style: He always asked probing questions that stretched her thinking, and assigned targeted “homework” each week so that she made concrete progress and learned to think like an independent researcher. His guidance extended beyond coding and algorithms into academic writing, with detailed feedback on her drafts that helped elevate her work to a strong college-level research papers.

Thanks to Samuel’s exceptional mentorship, her machine learning research has led to multiple journal publications and recognition at a competitive science fair, which in turn played a significant role in her successful admission to Princeton University.

Data Mining - Machine Learning Expert and Great Tutor

Samuel is an excellent tutor who possesses a deep understanding of machine learning and data mining concepts. His teaching style is clear and concise, allowing me to grasp difficult concepts that my professor couldn't clarify. He also incorporates real-world scenarios and practical examples to enhance the learning experience. With his tutoring, I have gained a stronger understanding of the data mining curriculum and now feel more confident taking this course. I would highly recommend his services, with a 10/10 rating.

Amazingly patient and knowledgeable 

Samuel’s sessions were effective for me because not only did I develop an AI product, but I learned a lot about the basics of Python and programming in general too.
