Award-Winning Computer Science Tutors in Oakland, CA

...physics. My experience has come in the form of private, one-on-one tutoring with students ranging in ages from 7th grade through adult learners, college-level review courses, and even teaching SAT prep courses. My students find me very relatable, and I've heard from several students that having someone close to their own age work with them has been really beneficial to their learning. I look forward to working with you in the future! Please don't hesitate...

My entire educational background was spent in science and math classes, often it wasn't easy for me, so I understand what it's like to struggle with something and feel like you will never understand. But if you work the problems enough times and never quit you'll get through it. And asking for help is never a bad thing, no one has ever gotten through all of this without help.... Understanding what it is you're doing is...

I have experience with Computer Science from a student, professional, and teaching perspective. I understand what it feels like when you are completely stuck on a problem or concept, so when teaching I use scaffolding to break concepts down into manageable parts. I have experience teaching Computer Science to a classroom of 20 high school students from different socioeconomic backgrounds. This included daily lectures, mentoring, and one on one tutoring/debugging, among other responsibilities. I also...

A Symbolic Systems and Theater double-major at Stanford University in Northern California, Milan is very excited to be a part of the Varsity Tutors team. His main academic interests are English, philosophy, math, and computer science, but Milan enjoys many other subjects (psychology, physics, and economics to name a few). He is fluent in Spanish and an active member of the Latino community. In his free time, he enjoys reading, writing, and taking the occasional...

I am a Master's degree in Computer Science and a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering. I became interested in tutoring in 11th grade when I began assisting my peers. Since then, I've been tutoring a variety of computer science and math courses. I am confident tutoring computer science, physics, geometry, and any other high school math courses. During my undergraduate career, I spent time teaching physics to high school juniors and seniors. My goal is...

Collective knowledge is always greater than individual knowledge. Share Knowledge.

...biotech programmer and manager. In 2006 I transitioned to teaching and have taught Computer Science and Philosophy at the high school and middle school levels. I am currently a Computer Science teacher at The Nueva School in Hillsborough, CA. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Computer Science and English. My students have gone on to MIT, Stanford, and UC. I am a firm proponent of the "growth mindset",...

I'm currently a student at UC Berkeley studying computer science and statistics. I'm experienced in math, computer science, and standardized testing.

...explain concepts in unorthodox ways: a student loves business? We can apply math to profit-maximization problems. Physics? Applying math to moving particles is incredibly intuitive. Math is beautiful in that it can be approached in many ways - for example, each problem has an algebraic, geometric, and graphical interpretation - and I love searching for the approach that best fits the student. While my specialty is math, I am confident tutoring any section of the...

Growing up with good mentors was crucial for the development of not only my academic success, but also the growth of me as an individual. I strongly believe that with correct and steadfast guidance, anyone can achieve anything. I was inspired by my own teachers to become what I loved, which turns out to be a mechanical engineering student, and I hope to reciprocate that to the upcoming generations.
