Wonderful experience. I had an issue with flask sqlalchemy and he helped to not only solve my issue but walk me through how to debug my code which I learnt a lot from. He also helped me to fix it in his own time outside of the zoom call and explained it to me later which I thought was really nice. Overall he is a very dedicated tutor and I would 100% recommend because he knows what he's talking about. 10/10

A highly skilled engineer who guided me expertly through the process of setting up an AWS Lambda function with a container image from an Amazon ECR repository. Here are the key points that made my experience exceptional: Technical Expertise: The engineer demonstrated deep knowledge in AWS services and Lambda functions. They swiftly identified issues and provided effective solutions, which was pivotal in successfully completing the task. Problem-Solving Approach: The engineer didn't just solve the problems; they walked me through the reasons behind each issue. This educational approach gave me a more profound understanding of AWS services. Excellent Communication: The engineer was able to explain complex concepts clearly and patiently. Their responses were prompt, comprehensive, and easy to understand. Patience and Professionalism: Throughout the process, the engineer was patient, understanding, and professional. Their dedication to helping me understand and resolve the issues was truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking assistance with AWS or similar tasks on Codementor.
