Learning to code is really learning to decompose problems, and that skill transfers whether the language is Java, Python, or something else entirely. Milan's CS degree grounds his teaching in fundamentals like control flow, data structures, and algorithmic complexity rather than surface-level syntax drills. He also draws on his English background to emphasize clear documentation and readable code.

Understanding data structures like arrays, linked lists, and sorting algorithms matters more than memorizing syntax — and that distinction is where Dennis spends most of his time. His background spans Java, JavaScript, and web development, so he can show how core CS concepts translate across languages and real projects.

Sarah's mathematics background means she's comfortable with the algorithmic and logical thinking that underpins computer science — concepts like recursion, Big-O analysis, and Boolean logic map directly onto the math she studied at Clark. She approaches programming problems the same way she approaches proofs: break the problem down, identify the structure, then build the solution step by step.

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.

I am starting graduate school this fall. My experiences as a student and scientist help me explain concepts and work through problems in a clear and engaging manner. I love teaching, and strive to make each personalized lesson enjoyable and productive. In addition to math and science, I can teach the skills and strategies students need to reach their goals on the ACT, GRE, or AP tests. I also enjoy working with elementary age students to increase reading and math proficiencies.

Between his coursework at Rice and his background in algorithms, Daniel tackles computer science from both the practical and theoretical sides — writing clean code and understanding why one sorting algorithm outperforms another for a given dataset. He's especially strong at breaking down recursion, data structures, and algorithmic complexity into steps that build logically on each other.

As an engineering student at Brown, Kashish works with programming languages and computational thinking daily — from writing algorithms to debugging code and understanding data structures like arrays, linked lists, and trees. She breaks down abstract CS concepts by connecting them to concrete problems, making topics like recursion or object-oriented design click for students encountering them for the first time. Her analytical precision and 5.0 rating make her a strong fit for introductory through intermediate computer science.

Studying computer science at Cornell's College of Engineering, Ravnoor digs into topics like data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design on a daily basis. He breaks complex problems — recursion, linked lists, sorting efficiency — into smaller, concrete steps so students build genuine understanding they can apply to new challenges independently.

From data structures and algorithms to computational complexity, Michelle covers the core CS curriculum with the depth you'd expect from a Duke CS graduate heading into a PhD at Michigan. She's especially strong at explaining abstract concepts like recursion and graph traversal by connecting them to concrete, visual examples that make the logic intuitive.

A computer science degree paired with coursework in theoretical mathematics gives Lance an unusually strong grasp of the abstractions underneath the code — automata theory, algorithm complexity, data structures, and computational logic. He spent multiple semesters as a TA and independent instructor for CS courses, so he's seen firsthand which concepts trip students up and how to reframe them. Whether the topic is graph traversal or NP-completeness, he breaks it into pieces that actually make sense.

John transitioned from law into co-founding a software company, which meant teaching himself to think in algorithms, data structures, and system design under real deadlines. He approaches computer science the same way — breaking problems into smaller, solvable pieces before writing a single line of code. That builder's mindset makes debugging and logic design feel less intimidating.

A Stanford MS in Computer Science means David can teach everything from data structures and algorithms to object-oriented design with the depth that comes from building real systems — not just reading about them. He spent a summer teaching web and app development to high school students in Palestine, so he knows how to make abstract CS concepts click through hands-on projects.

I am a undergraduate freshman of the University of Michigan, studying business at the Ross School of Business. Working together with students and having a good time while seeing steady improvements has proven to provide me great joy. I believe that communication and relationship building is crucial for students to open up about their struggles and also for me to identify problems they don't realize they can improve on, so this is a key aspect of all of my lessons. During my free time, I enjoy playing sports or snacking on desserts while binge-watching Friends!

Studying Computer Science alongside Math/Stats at Carleton College, Thomas lives at the intersection of algorithms, data structures, and mathematical reasoning. He digs into topics like recursion, sorting algorithms, and object-oriented design by building understanding from first principles rather than rote code memorization.

Programming starts making sense when you stop memorizing syntax and start thinking about what the computer is actually doing step by step. June's electrical engineering background at Brown gives her insight into both the hardware and software sides — she can explain why an algorithm is efficient, not just how to write it. From loops and conditionals to data structures and recursion, she connects each concept to real projects she's built in robotics and hackathons.

From recursion and sorting algorithms to Big-O analysis and object-oriented design, Ethan covers core computer science concepts with the rigor of someone studying it as a second major alongside aerospace engineering. He emphasizes understanding why an algorithm works — tracing through execution step by step — so students can adapt their thinking to new problems on exams and in projects.

Benjamin's finance and economics training at Notre Dame means he learned to code as a problem-solving tool — building models, analyzing datasets, and automating calculations — rather than through a traditional CS curriculum. That pragmatic entry point makes him effective at teaching programming logic and computational thinking to students who want to understand how code actually gets used in business and quantitative fields.
