Kameron: Geneva tutor
Certified Tutor
I am a 20 year old who enjoys critical thinking and analyzing situations. That being said, I enjoy chess and mathematics for the simple reason that I can apply the practices I learned in both of those in real life. Currently, I am a college student at Brooklyn College majoring in Computer Science and minoring in Music Technology. As a Computer Science major, I've come to appreciate languages like XHTML, CSS, Java and Processing and while I know how to code in C++, I tend to stay away from it because Java has spoiled me with the lack of pointers and no need to deleting allocated memory. As for the music technology aspect of myself, I just enjoy producing beats from game music already created.
