I love helping students learn to code, especially in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python. With a Master's in Electrical and Computer Engineering, I understand how tricky programming can feel at first, so I focus on keeping things simple, clear, and encouraging. My goal is to create a space where students feel comfortable, build confidence, and have fun while learning.

Algorithms Tutoring FAQ
If you are taking an algorithms class, you likely have some background in computer science. Whether this class is covering a range of traditional algorithms or it is embedded in another course, like data structures, an experienced tutor can provide a great deal of help for this difficult transition into advanced programming concepts and development. Varsity Tutors can help you connect with targeted algorithms tutoring nationwide to provide you with the tools to master this division of computer science.
Often, data structures or other advanced algorithm implementation courses separate the advanced students from those who will leave technical majors after experiencing the rigors of these courses. Do not let yourself be disappointed by the difficulties that you experience in your course. A personal tutor is the best option for helping you to improve your programming skill set. Once you address the problems you struggle with, you will be well positioned to understand your current coursework topics, as well as topics to be covered in the future. Whether you are confounded by lists, having difficulties with the many kinds of trees that you must implement and analyze, or overcome by the staggering number of sorting algorithms that you need to learn, an instructor can help you grasp the details of these important algorithms, and any others that you might be learning. From the above mentioned traditional structural algorithms to more advanced networking techniques, to the basic forms used to implement data storage and traffic in database and web-based systems, tutoring can provide targeted instruction to help you grasp the subtleties of the particular algorithms that you are learning in your course.
With an algorithms tutor, you receive a fully customized study plan that is designed with you in mind. Your tutor considers a wide range of factors that can play a role in your education. Your schedule is arranged around your current responsibilities, whether these are school, extracurricular activities, family, or anything else. You can request online sessions, which are identical to the sessions you would have in person, other than the inclusion of a computer screen. In addition, your tutor will consider your current skill level with algorithms, the type of content you face on your exams and homework, what your concerns in the course are, and what your learning style is. Each session goes at your pace, rather than following the general flow of your classmates. The tutor's goal is to ensure that you achieve your goals and master the subject.
Throughout each session, you receive ongoing feedback about your efforts and progress. Your tutor may have numerous test-taking tips that can make the workload go much smoother. In addition, they can ease the stress that may accompany a project or large homework assignment by assisting you as you work through the problems. Your tutor is capable of breaking hard concepts into easier to digest chunks that you can quickly grasp. Further, you are able to spend more or less time on concepts as you progress through your lesson plan. These are some of the benefits of the flexibility offered by a personal algorithms tutor.
Many of these topics are cumulative, so it is vital that you grasp each topic as it is presented. Whether you are merely feeling uncertain or have significantly missed an important topic, a private tutor can help you make up for lost time and learn missed or misunderstood content, thus enabling you to succeed today and in the future. No time is better than the present for you to start improving your grasp of this important course. Contact Varsity Tutors today and let us help you find the perfect computer science tutor for your needs.

Recent Algorithms Tutoring Session Notes
We began this session by correcting some minor commenting mistakes in the student's assigned program. We then began to work with methods, discussing return types and parameters. A more complex calculator program was assigned to be completed for our next session.
Today we covered programming tolerances, as well as root finding using Newton-Raphson method and ended on least square fit to an exponential equation. We will be picking up tomorrow with the least square fit, as we didn't finish it today.
We simplified the automation we had previously put together for our maze project, but the student seems to have lost interest in that project. We started a new game program, also in the scratch platform, that focused on timing, movement, and if-then statements. The student is starting to independently debug simple programs. In future sessions, we will move on to programming directly in C++ and away from the drag and drop languages.
I helped the student with some more Computer Science topics. This time, arrays, 2D arrays, and the Bubble Sort Routine. We also experimented with the technique of Desk-Checking in order to trace the functioning of some of the code in the exams.
We went over a free response question from the practice exam, discussed some concepts, and looked over their most recent lab assignment. They seem to have a good grasp of the fundamental concepts.
We covered the idea of using array indices as a separate attribute of objects. In this case, the indices of a two dimensional array represented a Student object's seating position in a class. We also reviewed the concept of a two dimensional array: an array of arrays, and how to traverse a two dimensional array. The student at first struggled with the former concept mentioned above, but once we got past that she picked up the latter concept pretty quickly. She seemed engaged and it seems she feels much more comfortable with the concepts now than she did previously. Toward the end we also covered the difference between the = operator and the == operator.
