Award-Winning Computer Science Tutors in Hillsboro, OR

...interesting experience with tutoring in the past and someday I hope to get more involved in the realm of education. When taking standardized tests and studying for classes, I found myself breaking down many problems to their core components, and after finding similar patterns with the types of questions asked, I realized how I could easily excel in standardized tests. After a summer teaching English in China and a whole school year as an active...

...district will demand, my students come first. When a students mental health is addressed and answered for, their identity validated, learning flows like no other. We are programmed to learn, excited to learn, sometimes we just have to convince the students that the material they are to learn is pertinent to them. This have proven true, no matter the age of population. This idea has always remained true; treat the students as individuals with their...

...levels. I have mentored many in my professional life. Yet, I believe teaching the young is as rewarding as mentoring my professional colleagues. It is my way of giving back and investing in the upcoming leaders of our society. My favorite subjects to tutor are Mathematics, Statistics, Project Management, and French (I am a native French speaker). I am very passionate about these topics. They are still relevant in my professional life. What better way...

I'm an electrical engineer working in the RF and mobile communications industry. I currently hold a MSEE and BSEE with a minor in physics. I've also been a professional musician since the late 90s. I aim to help students develop their own intuition when solving problems and learning new concepts. If you're having trouble in some areas, there's a good chance I've already struggled through it!

...science concepts, I am big on drawing pictures and diagrams in order to explain things. I find that thinking about abstract concepts is easier with a concrete spatial representation right in front of me--perhaps you do too! In college I also took many writing-heavy humanities courses, hence I am also available for English tutoring. I treat my tutoring sessions less like lectures and more like casual conversations where the key is good two-way communication. Subjects: Computer...

I love teaching! It's so rewarding to help people figure things out. Aside from teaching, I enjoy books, coffee, and video games with my friends.

I am a motivated tutor and would love to use my academic and industrial experience to teach students math, science, computer programming and electrical engineering.

...in the field of computer science and machine learning. As a graduate student during my PhD, I have had the opportunity to be a teaching assistant for introductory computer science courses, and I have also tutored students taking classes in various areas, including programming, algorithms, and research topics. Both as a teaching assistant and as a tutor, I naturally worked mainly with students who had difficulties following the course.I have been a tutor in the...

Current Masters student studying Education and working towards licensure! I am applying for primary education because I feel I have the potential to inspire and encourage children of all abilities to reach their full potential, as well as inspire life long learners.

...CS I was a math major and tutored math privately. I absolutely love helping other people to achieve a clear, intuitive understanding of quantitative subjects. It's all too common for folks to struggle with math and even stress out about it. I hope to help more students to realize that math isn't scary. The most important thing is that we take the pressure off. The primary goal of the tutor should be to make the...

...and university professor I have many years of teaching a variety of students. I know how to motivate learners to do their best.

Recently, I returned from a year of teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) in Thailand to both adults and children; it...

To share my love and knowledge of computer programming and technology.

I am a student attending Central Washington University, completing programs in Music Composition, Music Education, and Mathematics Education. I have two years of experience with reciprocal peer tutoring in the areas of Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, and Music. My interdisciplinary experiences help me work with students from diverse and unique academic backgrounds, and enable me to present material in a variety of different ways. Most importantly, I believe in fostering a love for learning.

...reports. When I'm not reading or writing, I'm playing the hammered dulcimer and teaching myself to code in new languages. When a student is struggling I'm always on the lookout for issues that don't have to do with the specific subject matter, such as test anxiety, a lack of organization, of a belief that the subject matter will not be useful later in life. When it comes to the actual material, I believe that there...
