Award-Winning Computer Science Tutors serving Alexandria, VA

...first experience being a tutor, I know that I am proficient in teaching math, computer science, Spanish, and exam preparation specifically. My aptitude for teaching these subjects comes from my love of them (especially math), which hopefully I can share with any students that are willing to try. My teaching philosophy is based on communication and understanding the needs of the student before attempting anything. I also prioritize getting to know who the student is...

...a small piece of it better. I love math and science and it gives me a warm feeling inside when I can help other students start to love math and science too. I have the most formal tutoring experience in math (up to and including Algebra), but I can also tutor biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science (Java). I have had very little experience in tutoring writing, but a lot of my peers ask me...

...levels. Java, Python JavaScript, Roblox Scripting with Lua, C++, AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, drag-and-drop languages (Scratch, Code.org, Snap, MIT App Inventor, ), are among the subjects I tutor.

For those interested in computer science, I can tutor beginner and intermediate subjects (high school CS, AP CS, Data Structures, Data Science, Web Development). The languages I am familiar with include but are not limited to Javascript, Java, Python, C#, and Ruby on Rails. I believe that excelling in STEM-related fields can be a difficult...

...the stress that comes with struggling through difficult concepts, because I have been there myself! I start by assessing a student's subject knowledge, and then smoothing out any misunderstood areas before moving forward. I especially like assessing the concepts and questions that tripped me up when I myself was a student, as those will likely be the concepts my students also struggle with. If a student then has trouble explaining a problem, I will then...

...second year at the University of Virginia. Working towards a Computer Science: Bachelor of Science degree. Growing up I really enjoyed learning Math, and that is why I want to show others that it is actually not that challenging. I also feel that I can personally relate with a lot of students since not too long ago, I was in the same position! I can tutor Algebra, Trig, and Calculus, along with a lot of...

...essays for friends, and been a Big Brother (the program, that is). My philosophy around tutoring simply revolves around developing a vested interest in students' successes. I have some knowledge to share, whether it be in SAT/ACT test prep, math, writing, or college apps, and it's fun and satisfying being able to empower others to succeed. In my free time, you'll catch me on my couch (watching a lot of TV -- I'm as sharp-tongued...

...been engrossed ever since. Thanks to the students that I have tutored, I have learned to think of topics in many new ways and it is this fluidity with studying and learning that I hope to get across. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy playing tennis and programming. I like to work hard at breaking my own limits and I believe with an impeccable work ethic many things once thought impossible become attainable.

...and of course, spent many hours storm chasing. I have a strong background in math, earth science, physics, computer programming, writing and many other academic offshoots, which enables me to provide comprehensive instruction to any student. As everyone learns differently and at various paces, I take a very personalized approach to tutoring, working with a student to understand their strengths and weakness, ensuring that they meet and exceed their learning goals. From basic fundamentals to...

I am currently a Freshman Student at the University of Maryland College Park, and I am working towards a degree in Information Systems with a Minor in Business on a Pre-Law Track. I am most excited to teach students English, Math, and other critical learning skills needed for higher-level concepts. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, going on walks, painting, reading, and traveling!

...are struggling with. As a child, I was diagnosed with ADD and throughout my adolescence, have learned ways to manage those disadvantages to come off of the 504 Plan/ IEP in high school. I find the best way to help kids learn is to find ways to make them interested in the material and proud of their personal successes. I promise as a tutor to stay patient, positive, and engaged throughout your child's learning process.

I am a graduate of Fordham University. After receiving my B.S. in Computer Science, I tutored with a local school district, working with students in a variety of math classrooms to recover from learning loss and exceed their expectations. This experience refined my ability to connect with students and allowed me to discover a passion for every "Aha!" moment. I focus on Math and Computer Science subjects, combining a conversational and Socratic style with unambiguous...

...I learned in academics to work. I started tutoring Math/Science when I was in college. Eventually started teaching undergraduate students when I was in Grad school. I found that I enjoyed breaking complex problems into simple parts and helping students understand and enjoy learning. With multiple degrees based on Mathematics and Science and more than 5 years of experience teaching middle school to undergraduate students I am sure I can help students of any ability....

...Additionally, I've contributed my skills through organizations such as the National Honor Society and have provided support to family members, including cousins and siblings, when they've encountered academic challenges. In my tutoring practice, I cover a wide array of subjects, including mathematics (ranging from algebra to calculus and geometry), computer science (Python, Java, C, etc.), and economics (both macro and micro). I firmly believe that education is a fundamental right that empowers individuals to enhance...

...organization called BGCME where I had the opportunity to work with some students of diverse learning needs, including those with ADHD. I tutor a wide range of STEM subjects including math, science, and programming up to the college level. I'm especially comfortable with AP content as I'm very familiar with the curriculum, and as a recent high school graduate, it's still fresh in my mind. My approach to tutoring is centered on helping students truly...

...different people I work with. If I had to pick a favorite subject, it would be statistics! I love how broadly applicable the field is, since its present in almost all the news, media, and educational content we consume. I would consider myself an "introverted extrovert"; while I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, I'm just as comfortable reading a good book or watching a new show. I believe strongly in being a lifelong...
