...tutoring the first time a student had a "light-bulb" moment where everything we had discussed and they were working on came together. Since starting to tutor I have had experience tutoring individuals as well as groups (10-15 people). The subjects that I currently tutor are algebra, calculus, and statistics. Of these subjects I enjoy statistics the most though, both tutoring and learning, because of how applicable to the world it is in almost every field....

Linux Tutoring FAQ
Linux is a free, open-source operating system that provides an alternative to Windows. The operating system has become very popular in the corporate world, and Linux drives the majority of mobile devices, online servers, smart televisions, and more. Based on UNIX, Linux has many identical or similar features down to the command line. Linux is maintained by a strong distributed community of developers, and companies using it are allowed to commercialize their own adaptations.
If you are a management information systems student, IT professional, web developer, or in a similar field, the chances of you working on a Linux platform are high. If you would like to get the most out of Linux, you may be looking for a way to learn it better. Varsity Tutors can connect you with a skilled Linux tutor who can focus on your areas of need.
Some things you can learn about during Linux tutoring sessions include:
Setting up and configuring Linux on a computer
The LAMP stack
Linux commands and working in the shell
Processes, pipes, and filters
Regular Expressions
Networking with Linux
When you work with a Linux tutor, you will have an expert by your side who can provide support while you learn. College Linux tutoring can start at the very basics or show advanced users how to configure a Linux computer to act as a server. If you aren't sure where you need to focus, a tutor can assess your capabilities with the operating system and identify areas where you need more help.
Linux tutoring can also progress at your preferred pace, giving you plenty of opportunities to understand how to use regular expressions and grep to find content in files before moving on to setting up a programming environment, for example. Tutors can also provide exercises, small projects, outside resources, and other tools to help you learn Linux effectively.
If you have spent time online searching for "Linux tutoring near me," Varsity Tutors is ready to find a private instructor for you.
