Gautam

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +36 Subjects

I am an experienced academic tutor with a focus in the SAT and ACT. With nearly 2 years of experience tutoring in the SAT, I know the ins and outs of the test as someone who was not initially good at the test but through dedication and a systematic approach raised my score. I have carefully studied the Digital SAT and subdivided all problems, supplemented by relevant problems from the old SAT versions. In English or math, I know exactly how it is tested and the best way to approach it. I graduated with Molecular Biology and Computer Science degrees from Oregon State University, and have worked as a tutor in a test prep company for 2 years. I am very systematic in academic or physical training and take a step-by-step process for improvement. Through targeted practice, I believe in focusing on areas where students are not as strong. I scored 1520 and 1550 on the SAT in 2017 and a perfect score on the Math section twice -- before I even started tutoring. I understand that students have a wide variety of learning styles. In the first session, I assess student goals, learning styles, past experiences and scores, and strengths to develop the best approach to improve your score.

Sanah

AP Calculus BC Tutor • +35 Subjects

I am currently an undergraduate student at University of Texas at Dallas, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and minor in Marketing. I have worked with students and tutored them in STEM subjects such as mathematics and science, and I have also helped students with history projects and essays. My favorite subject to tutor is science because I am able to use simple real-world examples to explain more complex topics, which allows for me to create a more engaging experience for the students and connect with them as well. I believe that there is no greater power than knowledge and your ability to apply yourself using vast information that is learnt either from school or experiences. Moreover, I believe that students who choose to seek help through tutoring embark upon a path to become the best version of themselves, starting with academic success. In my spare time, I like to read, draw/paint, and watch movies. In essence, I would love the opportunity to make someone interested in learning as much as I love learning about new information and ideas.

Haley Shea

Elementary Statistics Tutor • +143 Subjects

Haley graduated from the University of North Georgia with two bachelor's degrees in English Writing & Publication and Interdisciplinary Studies (Mathematics/Technology, Social Science, and Humanities concentrations), and an associate's degree in Psychological Science (2020). Previously, she completed an associate's in Communication, Film & Digital Media Studies (2016). While at UNG, she worked as a Writing Center Peer Consultant, Supplemental Instruction Facilitator, English Department Student Administrative Assistant, Writing Fellow, and Ambassador for the Center for Undergraduate Research & Creative Activities (in addition to programming stimulus displays for EEG experiments in the neuroscience lab). Her major fields of study are supplemented by three minors: Linguistics, Psychology, and Studies of English Language Learning. Combined, this background enables a flexible tutoring approach that can be customized to meet the needs of both additional-language learners and individuals facing cognitive challenges. Haley Shea is currently pursuing graduate-level education in cognitive science, conducting neuroscientific laboratory research in psycholinguistics and brain-computer interface, and training for a career in human-computer interaction. During college, her top subjects were Advanced English Grammar and Linguistics. There, she was known for her passionate leadership of study sessions for sentence-diagramming, which inspired her laboratory research. An active community member, she was Vice President of the English Honor Society chapter and led the UNG Writers Guild for two years, helping students write and gather valuable feedback from one another, enabling them to better proofread and edit their work for future publications. Many of those writers saw their work in print through UNG's award-winning student literary magazine, for which Haley Shea served as an editor for several years. Other campus engagements included running the community book drive for over two years and founding an all-student improv troupe which went on to perform and compete in tournaments around the state and region. While acting helped her become comfortable on-stage, Haley Shea also greatly benefited from her time as a member of the speech and debate team, placing first in statewide debate and slam poetry competitions over the years. Her favorite topic of both debate and poetry is that of human innovation and interaction with emerging technology, especially in relation to ethical policies on artificial intelligence. Captivated by syntax in both spoken language and computer code, she is fascinated with recent developments in language-based software and hopes to contribute to the field of computational psycholinguistics while earning her PhD. After graduating, Haley Shea knew she wanted to keep supporting other students toward their goals. A scholarship student herself, she always loves any chance to help individuals express their strengths and unique personal histories in ways that will help further their goals. To this end, she continues to mentor applicants for nationally competitive scholarships and other student support opportunities, such as the McNair Scholars Program and Goldwater STEM Scholarship, two major awards which made an immense difference toward the funding of her bachelor's education when she was named an official recipient in 2019, in honor of her interdisciplinary research and commitment to fostering student success on campus. She finds joy in any opportunity to uplift other students--especially women in STEM, individuals facing disabilities, or anyone who seeks to improve their command of the English language. In sharing her passions with her students, she helps them break out of "analysis paralysis" into a fun, personalized routine that helps foster positive associations with the topic of study and strong metacognitive skills that lead to improved performance over time. Special Topic Announcement: Students of English writing, grammar, comprehension, et cetera may enjoy developing their meta-linguistic awareness through Sentence Diagramming. Ask during booking to learn more about how you can become a grammar wiz through one-on-one classes in Sentence Diagramming taught by Haley Shea.

Spencer

AP Statistics Tutor • +57 Subjects

I developed a passion for teaching while I was living in Brazil where my friend and I had a blast teaching our students English while they made fun of our Portuguese (only at first... we got better). I come from a family of educators. My mom, my aunts, my uncle, and my grandparents teach every age group from pre-K to graduate school, so the pursuit of knowledge was always encouraged at my house. I was fortunate to be able to pursue a higher education and graduated from BYU with a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science. My favorite subjects to tutor are math, physics, English, and computer science related courses, though I enjoy tutoring almost any subject.

Frequently Asked Questions

Debugging is as much about developing a systematic mindset as it is about technical skills. A tutor can teach you how to read error messages carefully, use debugging tools effectively (like breakpoints and print statements), and think through your code logically rather than guessing at fixes. They'll also help you understand common error patterns—like off-by-one errors in loops or null pointer exceptions—so you can spot and prevent them faster in future projects.

Syntax is the specific rules of a language (like how to write a for loop in Python vs. Java), while logic is the problem-solving approach behind your code. Many students get stuck memorizing syntax but struggle with algorithmic thinking—breaking down a problem into steps and choosing the right data structures. A tutor helps you focus on building strong logic skills first, which makes learning new languages and syntax much easier, since the core thinking transfers across all programming languages.

Data structures like arrays, linked lists, hash tables, and trees are abstract concepts that are hard to visualize without hands-on practice. Students often memorize definitions without understanding when and why to use each one, leading to inefficient solutions. A tutor can walk you through real coding problems, show you how different structures perform, and help you build intuition for choosing the right tool—turning data structures from abstract theory into practical problem-solving skills.

Code review teaches you to think like a professional developer—considering readability, efficiency, and best practices, not just whether code "works." A tutor can review your projects, point out where variable names are unclear, where you're repeating code unnecessarily, or where a more efficient algorithm would help. This feedback loop is invaluable because you learn to write better code the first time, catch your own mistakes faster, and develop habits that make collaboration easier later.

Building real projects forces you to integrate multiple concepts—maybe combining loops, conditionals, functions, and file I/O in one program—rather than learning them in isolation. A tutor can guide you through project planning, help you break large problems into manageable pieces, and provide feedback as you build. This approach strengthens your ability to think through problems end-to-end and gives you a portfolio of work that demonstrates your skills to colleges or employers.

A tutor can help you explore different areas by working on small projects in each domain and discussing what resonates with you. Web development focuses on front-end and back-end technologies; data science emphasizes statistics and machine learning; game development combines graphics, physics, and real-time problem-solving. Your tutor can help you understand the core skills each path requires and guide you toward specialization based on your interests and career goals.

Algorithmic thinking means breaking a problem into precise, step-by-step instructions before you write any code—thinking about efficiency, edge cases, and the order of operations. It's hard because it requires abstract reasoning and practice; many beginners jump straight to coding without planning. A tutor helps you develop this skill by working through problems on paper first, discussing different approaches, and analyzing why one solution is better than another—building the foundation for tackling complex problems independently.

Error messages are written for computers and experienced programmers, so they often feel cryptic to beginners—a stack trace showing five nested function calls can be overwhelming. A tutor teaches you to focus on the most relevant line, understand what the error type means (like IndexError vs. TypeError), and trace backward through your code to find the root cause. Over time, you'll recognize patterns and develop the skill to use error messages as debugging guides rather than sources of frustration.
