Dennis
BA Princeton University
9+ Years Tutoring

I'm Dennis. I study physics, math, and computer science. I have done research about cosmic ray acceleration at supernova shock fronts in the Princeton University Department of Astrophysics, simulating how the turbulent plasmas push protons and ions. I have also worked at the Norfolk State University Department of Engineering, designing, simulating, optimizing, and building light filters for wavelength-division optical-electronic multiplexers. Another field I study is the mathematics of quasicrystals and aperiodic tilings, such as the Penrose tiling of rhombuses.

Margaret
Current Undergrad Student, Political Science and Government Stanford University
9+ Years Tutoring

I am a Stanford student from Maryland studying Political Science and Computer Science. I graduated from high school in 2015, where I was active as the captain of my high school sailing team, a section leader in the orchestra, and part of the STEM magnet program Project Lead the Way. I am currently taking some time off from school to be around family here in Massachusetts and while I will be taking a few classes, I have plenty of time and lots of flexibility. I am excited to work with middle and high school students in math, reading and writing, social studies, and computer science. In addition to taking classes and tutoring this fall I will be volunteering in after school programs with low income middle and elementary school students.

Florence
BA Duke University
5+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising senior at Duke University. I major in Computer Science and am also getting a minor in Physics. I have had experience tutoring/teaching as a teaching assistant for three classes: Intro to Databases, Electricity and Magnetism (for engineers), and Computer Network Architecture. I have had industry experience in software development as an intern for IBM and a cybersecurity analyst for TIAA. Outside of school/work, I play the piano and train with the Duke Taekwondo Club. I have a strong background in computer science, physics, and math, but I love learning about and helping students with a wide variety of subjects!

David
MS Stanford University • BA Stanford University
9+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Stanford University, where I received a BS in Cognitive Science and an MS in Computer Science. After graduation, I spent a summer in Palestine, where I taught web development, app development, and entrepreneurship to a cohort of overenthusiastic high school students; now, I've moved halfway across the country from the Bay Area to the Twin Cities. From volunteering with organizations like Twin Cities Rise and The Mid-Continent Oceanographic Institute to checking out art institutions like the Walker and Mia, it's been such a wonderful time settling into this new place that I call home.

PhD University of California-Santa Cruz • BA California Institute of Technology
9+ Years Tutoring

I'm a recent graduate of the California Institute of Technology in Economics and Computer Science. I was also accepted at Harvard, Princeton, MIT, and Stanford. I have a broad range of interests spanning science, math, engineering, social science, the humanities, the arts, and athletics (I also played on the Caltech basketball team). My background allows me to tutor general college prep, especially the SAT, ACT and the GRE. I love to teach analytical thinking, ranging from advanced Math and Physics to strategies for understanding literature and developing arguments.

9+ Years Tutoring

I am a master's student studying computer science at the University of Pennsylvania. I have been working as a private tutor for two years now, and I am currently a teaching assistant for an introductory course in discrete math at Penn. I love helping students conquer their fears of math and computer science, and I hope to dispel the myth that success in these areas requires special talent.

John
BA University
1+ Years Tutoring

While computer science isn't John's primary credential, his engineering training at a program rigorous enough to earn Tau Beta Pi membership gave him strong foundations in algorithmic thinking and problem decomposition. He approaches AP Computer Science concepts like recursion, sorting algorithms, and object-oriented design with the structured logic of an engineer who learned to code as a working tool.

Dennis
BA Rutgers University (New Brunswick)
1+ Years Tutoring

Most AP Computer Science A students get tripped up not on syntax but on thinking through what their code actually does — tracing a loop iteration by iteration or figuring out why a method returns the wrong value. Dennis teaches across Java, JavaScript, and web development, which means he can explain object-oriented concepts from multiple angles and show students how the same logical patterns appear across languages. Rated 5.0 by students.

Christina
BA Northwestern University
1+ Years Tutoring

Christina's CS degree means she's written enough Java to know exactly where AP Computer Science A gets tricky — the leap from writing simple methods to designing full classes with inheritance, or the moment recursion stops feeling like magic and starts making sense. She teaches students to trace through code systematically, building the kind of debugging instinct that pays off on both multiple-choice and free-response sections.

Sandra
BA Vassar College
1+ Years Tutoring

Sandra's CS degree means she didn't just learn Java for a single course — she built with it across semesters of data structures, algorithms, and software design, giving her a deep understanding of the object-oriented concepts AP Computer Science A hammers on free-response questions. She also scored a perfect 1600 on the SAT, which speaks to the kind of precise, methodical reasoning that translates directly to tracing through recursive calls and debugging logic errors. Rated 5.0 by students.
