1. Download Parted Magic, Use Gparted to create a new parition table and primary parition, thus erasing everything from your computer
2. Re-install your Operating System (Windows 7 or 8, i'm guessing) Maek sure to use a different user name than before.
3. Install a good firewall and configure it to prevent incoming network connecitons except to specified applications or by manual prompt acceptance.

Your computer is now secure, however the network you connect to (for internet) he may still be able to monitor...so consider using a VPN, there are some free ones.
