Vancouver Operating Systems Tutoring FAQ
An operating system (or OS) is software that manages both computer hardware and other software resources. It provides a common infrastructure for the services and programs on the system. All computer programs, with the exception of firmware, require an operating system in order to function. For computer science students, operating systems may seem like a significant abstraction from the rest of the field. Varsity Tutors can help you find experienced operating systems tutoring to help you with your studies.
There are many different types of operating systems. The dominant operating system for computers is Microsoft Windows. MacOS has the second largest share. In third place are the many varieties of the Linux operating system.
Smartphones and tablets have different operating systems. In this field, the two dominant operating systems are created by Google and Apple. In an operating systems course, you will learn about how this special software is built, and you will be challenged to demonstrate a command of concurrent programming, communication between processes, and resource management.
An understanding of operating systems is needed for careers in programming, computer networking, information systems management, and hardware or software engineering. Students can take courses that deal with operating systems at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Many high schools also offer basic and intermediary classes on the subject. Some of the colleges that offer degree programs with a focus on operating systems include the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, NJ; the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA; and Duke University in Durham, NC.
How can an operating systems tutor help you? The framework of an operating system is intricate, and each step of the process requires extensive study in order to master it. Your tutor may help you understand the different types of operating systems, display structure, the interface between the machine and user, software and hardware compatibility, cross-platform applications, and distributed operating systems. An experienced operating systems tutor can work on any or all of the specific skills associated with the discipline.
One of the biggest advantages of working with a personal tutor is the ability to receive individualized instruction that is customized to cover only the topics you need help understanding. This helps to maximize your time with your tutor to work toward academic goals as efficiently as possible. While you may be focused on OS principles, an experienced tutor may also be able to help you with key study and organization skills that you'll use throughout your academic and professional careers.
The Varsity Tutors live learning platform also gives you the power to choose when and where you meet with your tutor. Some students find it easier to concentrate in the comfort of their own home, while others rely on the steady flow of caffeine from their favorite coffee shop. Whether you prefer to meet in a virtual space or in person, there is an experienced operating systems tutor eager to begin working with you. To get started on the process of finding the right OS tutor for you, contact Varsity Tutors today.

Recent Vancouver Operating Systems Tutoring Session Notes
This was our final session and I answered all his questions regarding differential equations. I have to say he knows just about everything there is to know about the topics, and this is the class he is best prepared in. I hope he does well on his final.
The student and I began our session by reviewing vocabulary. We then reviewed the reading strategies we discussed last session. We focused on inferencing during this session. We then used our reading skills to complete several practice questions. Nice work today!
Reviewed quadrilaterals and the use of angle relationships to solve for certain angles given other angles. Also used the law of sines and the law of cosines to solve triangles. Worked on the concept of solving an equation first, then plugging in numbers for a numerical solution.
The student and I discussed and practiced strategies specifically for data-sufficiency questions in the math section. We outlined a flowchart to maximize efficiency. We also discussed (and extensively practiced) picking numbers to answer the question both "yes" and "no" in order to prove that a statement is insufficient.
This session was spent walking through how to define characteristics of parabolas. The student seemed clear on how to find the characteristics, but unclear on why those characteristics need to be found in order to graph a parabola. I not only walked through how to find those characteristics, but also why they are absolutely necessary to find when graphing a parabola. He picked up on these principles very quickly and by the end of our session he could walk me through how to find the axis of symmetry, vertex, x-intercepts, y-intercept, and two additional points in the parabola.
The student and I reviewed her flash cards we had made the previous session. We worked through the review she had in class. There were some things she did not quite grasp, so I taught her the information in several different ways using words, drawings, and her hands to remember. I made a jobs quiz at the end. We reviewed the areas she was still struggling with and she felt confident when we were through. I left an additional quiz I made up along with answers with the student's mother to give on Wednesday in preparation for her quiz Thursday.
