Software Engineer @ TabTab
Ilfir Yakupov
"Tony is a brilliant instructor who is very passionate about sharing his wealth of knowledge with others. He has a great talent to break down complex concepts of DSA into simple parts that’s easier to understand.
I highly recommend to take Tony’s DSA course if you are looking forward to brush up your fundamental knowledge of data structures and algorithms or you are a beginner, who is struggling with coding challenges and tries to memorize every solution to the questions, without really understanding “why?”. You definitely will feel more confident with time and space complexity analysis and choosing right approach how to solve the coding challenge in the most efficient way."

Software Engineer @ Infosys
Dimitri Gedda
"Over the course of six live lectures that spanned at least 90 minutes, Tony drilled us with Patterns for implementing DSA, as well as Big O. He candidly shared his perspectives as a successful Software Engineer and as an Interviewer. He also pushes students to take the time to know the basics of JS inside and out and wouldanswer any questions we had in class and throughout the week on Hanawilo's Slack.When someone raises the bar high for themselves, it motivates you to raise your bar and enables you to grasp more than you thought you could. This was true in my case and I'm grateful to Tony and to Hanawilo."

Software Engineer @ Spire Systems Inc.
Tony Ye
"The best part about the course is that it teaches you the most used patterns that you would use to approach Leetcode questions. Tony would also draw and explain each steps in an understandable way for beginners as he demonstrate problem solving, and he would assign challenging but solvable questions to the students every week. I highly recommend this course for anyone who wishes to improve their Leedcode skill!"

Software Engineer
Read Langworthy
"Tony is a great teacher. It’s clear that he cares deeply about helping his students and is passionate about software development and programming. He also seems to have a lot of fun doing both.
Before taking Tony’s DSA class, I was struggling to finish algorithms problems in a reasonable amount of time. Now after taking the class and working through the assignments, I can consistently tackle many algo problems quickly and with confidence."

Software Engineer
Yoon Cho
"As a boot camp grad struggling to self-study DSA, I enjoyed taking Tony’s DSA course. I felt like my scattered knowledge of DSA was assembled and organized like a completed puzzle. I appreciated his teaching style of using drawings for easier understanding and his grit in not giving up on explaining until every student understood the class content. He encouraged students to ask many questions and kindly answered all the questions with detailed explanations. I feel lucky to be able to take his classes."

Stephanie Mitchell
"After completing the Hanawilo Intro to Data Structures and Algorithms Bootcamp, I am so thankful to have the opportunity to learn from Tony. He shows you how to approach these type of problems, that you’ll encounter on interviews or in your professional career, with such confidence, by giving such in-depth explanations that are not only clear but easy to follow. Learning how to solve a DSA problem is not easy to begin with, but knowing how to explain and break down problems is the real hard part. I am excited to take my newly learned knowledge on DSA and begin to apply it as I continue to study and tackle interviews."

Software Engineer
Mai Vang
"As one of his students at Hanawilo, I have learned so much about what a software engineer does - from working on a project using agile scrum methodologies, reviewing other engineer codes, and learning about new technologies/frameworks (i.e. Redux). If you get the chance to work with Tony, I highly recommend it because you get more than you sign up for while having a strong safety net to guide you to become a better software engineer."

This is not only a great beginner's course to take, but also a great networking opportunity for those that come into the course and meet others in the same career path. He breaks things down easily so you can better understand the material, as well as giving out assignments that challenge your thinking process making you a better problem solver. Highly recommended!"

Software Engineer @ Intuit
Maria Delacruz
"Tony Kim is an incredible instructor. He explains things clearly and makes sure everyone understands before moving on to another topic. I loved this course because Tony walked us through every line of code he wrote. He explained the "why" you do things this way instead of this way. I've taken plenty of online courses and explaining the why is what a lot of course lack but NOT this course.I enrolled in the course because I had very little experience with data structures and algorithms. I wanted to understand my code in a different way and after taking this course with Tony definitely gave me the perspective I was looking for."

Software Engineer
Jordan Taylor
"Tony makes seemingly impenetrable algorithms approachable and easy to understand. He is able to deconstruct each pattern into it's simplest parts while ensuring that you don't get lost along the journey. Tony was always available for questions from his students with though provoking answers (rather than just giving you the solution outright) that push you along the right paths. He seems to genuinely care about his students success."

Software Engineer
Shantel Christian
"If you are ever looking at LeetCode with a blank stare, wondering where to start, the Data Structure and Algorithms course presented by Hanwailo is a lifesaver. This course teaches you how to approach and solve these problems effectively by breaking down the problem and teaches the patterns to guide you to a solution. This course is beneficial because it teaches you how to approach LeetCode problems and any coding problems you encounter. I recommend this course to anyone because it also builds confidence which is invaluable to any young developer. The instructor, Tony, teaches in a very approachable way so that everyone in his class comprehends the lesson. He truly cares about setting everyone in his community on a path to becoming successful software engineers and continuing to expand their knowledge in the tech field."
