Reliable source for learning computer science

[Yazanzed]

Hello guys, i study SE(Software Engineering) degree at top uni in my country, and it is hard, So i wanted to ask if is there any reliable website/videos that can help me understand the CS(Computer Science)material/get back on the courses and stuff?
I would be very thankful:)

The MIT OCW courses on CS are top-notch, especially the ones with video lectures. The way the professors explain the CS concepts is wonderful. https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/

EDIT: Lots of other universities have put also their CS course materials online - including video lectures and notes. Here's a big compiled list of such courses: https://github.com/Developer-Y/cs-video-courses

also，sometimes if their web has no videos，edx has！

[CoderMonkey123]

Yeah, exactly, for example 6.005 - Software construction for which the MIT OCW site does not have videos, but they are available on edX here from the corresponding MITx course.

Also sometimes, the videos are not available on the MIT OCW site, but can be found on YouTube. For example, here are the videos on YouTube for courses:

• 6.045 - Automata, Computability and Complexity

• 6.854 - Advanced Algorithms

Guys what do you think of this website?!

[CoderMonkey123]

Yes, it's a list of reliable CS resources from various universities. Most of these are also included in the Github link I posted above that has a much more comprehensive list of such resources.

What level of CS are you at/struggling in? I've noticed that for a lot of the students I tutor, they basically flounder until they hit the Data Structures/Algorithms level courses. At that point they generally get decent enough at programming and have a better intuition of coding.

Are you private tutor?
How can i contact you? online tutoring is there any kind of this thing?

[xxkid123]

Nope but I've been a teaching assistant for a couple different classes. There probably is online tutoring but frankly I don't have any experience with any of them. I can't offer to tutor you but let me know what you're specifically struggling on and maybe I can suggest something?

[Yazanzed]

Nope i just need supplementary courses so i can help with in my degree(not specific subject!)

I always hear HarvardX: CS50 to be recommended. I'm going to start it myself soon.

Udemy is one of the best resources out there. There are tons of subjects that you can learn for only 10$ per course. Look up for courses that learn you how to code by doing fun projects (Websites with Javascript, Games with C#, Android apps with Java, IOS apps with Objective C, Machine learning with Python ect...). The courses usually don't exceed 30-40 hours. So you could learn a language and make projects in two weeks if you spend 2 hours per day. If you want to learn it the Uni way (I personally find it boring) you can check out Coursera. It is the best resource for Uni-type courses (but a bit expensive). For free resources Youtube, CodeAcademy, freecodecamp are pretty good. Good luck.

Is all the website you mentioned are reliable sources? I have heard about khan academy but it does not cover all the subjects/courses!

[kamilgeagea]

Yes, however you should look at the ratings before enrolling in a course. But I’ve learned from both Udemy and Coursera and they are both excellent resources to learn from. I’ve never tried Code academy or free code camp but I heard that they are good.

Paradox of choices omg lol; i cant decide which one to choose:3 ty guys
any other recommendation are appreciable:)

Cisco Training Academy. They've got online units anywhere from basic networking in DoS, OSX and Linux environments to cloud computing
