Whittier Mathematical Foundations for Computer Science Tutoring FAQ
All computation relies on the fundamental principles of mathematics. In fact, the greatest minds at the inception of computer science were actually mathematicians. Many people are surprised to learn that studying the mathematical foundations for computer science differs considerably from studying computer science itself. Even if you are one of those students who are particularly comfortable with many of the major aspects of computer science, such as computer programming, you may find it difficult to comprehend and work with the intricate mathematical principles underlying such computation. Luckily, Varsity Tutors can help you to connect with high-quality tutoring services to hone your understanding of mathematical foundations for computer science.
Varsity Tutors' educational directors are available by phone or email to help you create a student profile that can assist you in finding the tutor that you need.

You can find tutors who offer in-person tutoring, online tutoring, or both! It is all up to you.
Tutors can help with a wide variety of mathematical topics that underlie the field of computer science. You are free to explore and work with a wide range of complicated concepts, such as converting between number systems with different bases, working with binary relations, completing logical operations and using De Morgan's laws, constructing truth tables, applying Cantor's theorem, building formal proofs, performing mathematical induction, understanding the behavior of finite automata and Turing machines, determining whether a computational process is decidable or undecidable, and identifying problems in terms of P- vs. NP-completeness. If you have a particular concept you are struggling with or need to have a refresher of it all, your personal mathematical foundations of computer science tutor can prepare a personalized curriculum that is created to keep you focused on the areas you are weakest in. With an organized study guide, you are able to delve deeply into each concept until you master it in full.

Recent Whittier Mathematical Foundations for Computer Science Tutoring Session Notes
The student and I reviewed his Language Arts homework, which had to do with capitalization rules. He made few mistakes on these exercises. We then went over his Science homework concerning nearsightedness/farsightedness, and concave/convex lenses.
The student and I had a session today. We continued with our calculations of lateral surface area, total surface area, and volume of three-dimensional figures. This time we worked on prisms and cylinders.
Reviews aneuploidies (monosomies, trisomies and real life examples); nondisjunction in meiosis 1 and 2; men Delian and non-men Delian inheritance, mitochondrial inheritance, translocations (and (No Suggestions) translocations causing down syndrome); trinucleotide repeat disorders (Huntington's, myotonic dystiophy, fragile x, Freidrich's ataxia). The student seemed to follow really well-professor seems to go quite quickly so she needed help filling in the gaps in her notes and relating topics to each other. Found pictures helpful from my own genetics textbook. Will bring in old quizzes to review next meeting.
Tonight I guided the student as she completed her Geography notes. We spent the rest of the session reviewing for her Spanish test on Chapter 9 tomorrow. We went over all her vocab words as well as the verbs from the chapter. She also has a Physics test tomorrow. We finished our time with setting some goals for this week and looking over her overall grades.
The student and I reviewed some problems from his textbook for Chapter 9 (linear momentum and center of mass). We covered the problems conceptually and did not solve for the actual answers. He and I made an appointment for weekly sessions on Mon 12-2p.
