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.
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.
From automata theory and computational complexity to practical algorithm design, Firas covers computer science as both a theoretical discipline and a hands-on craft. His Ph.D. research at the intersection of machine learning and big data means he can connect abstract CS concepts — graph traversals, runtime analysis, NP-completeness — to the systems that actually use them. Rated 5.0 by students.
Building AI systems and low-level software at Stanford — in both Python and C++ — Kevin knows where the theoretical meets the practical in computer science. His biocomputation specialization means he can explain not just how to implement an algorithm, but why certain computational approaches work better for different problem domains. Rated 5.0 by students.
Software development taught Michael something that textbooks often skip: the discipline of decomposing a massive, ambiguous problem into small, testable pieces — and that's exactly how he teaches computer science. His professional coding experience across languages like Java, Python, Ruby, and C means he can ground abstract topics like object-oriented design or control flow in real working code rather than classroom-only exercises. Rated 4.9 by students.
From sorting algorithms to recursion to object-oriented architecture, computer science rewards the ability to think in layers of abstraction. Joel is pursuing CS at Cornell alongside physics, which means he approaches programming problems with both mathematical rigor and practical debugging instincts. He's comfortable across Python and Java and adapts to whatever language a student's course requires.
Sakibul's graduate work at Rice sits at the intersection of computer science and applied mathematics, which means he tackles programming concepts — loops, recursion, data structures — with the analytical rigor of a mathematician. He breaks down abstract ideas like algorithmic complexity into concrete, step-by-step reasoning that clicks for students encountering CS for the first time.
Eric treats coding problems the same way he treats logical puzzles — by breaking them apart, finding the pattern, and building a solution step by step. As a CS major at Washington University in St. Louis, he's deep in Java and JavaScript right now, which means he can walk students through everything from writing their first function to structuring a full object-oriented program. His approach emphasizes learning to think through problems algorithmically before jumping to syntax.
Between a master's in Computer Science, an active PhD program, and a full-time software development career, Daniel lives this subject from multiple angles — theoretical and applied. He unpacks everything from algorithmic complexity and data structures to systems-level thinking, tailoring the depth to wherever a student currently sits in their CS journey.
Philosophy trained Calin to build rigorous logical arguments; his math and CS degrees taught him to express that logic in C++ and JavaScript. That combination means he teaches programming concepts — from algorithm design to data structure selection — as exercises in precise reasoning, where every line of code follows from a clear chain of thought. Rated 5.0 by students.
Corrina's mechanical engineering degree required extensive programming coursework, and she now teaches core computer science concepts — data structures, algorithms, Boolean logic, and computational thinking — in a way that makes abstract ideas tangible. She connects each concept to real applications, whether that's sorting algorithms in a search engine or conditionals inside a robot's control loop.
Allison's CS degree from Dartmouth means she's worked through the full arc — from writing first programs to tackling data structures, algorithms, and computational theory. She unpacks abstract concepts like recursion and Big-O analysis by walking through concrete code examples, making the logic visible before the notation takes over.
Madeline's physics PhD work at Carnegie Mellon means she writes code daily — Python, Java, MATLAB, and Mathematica — to model complex systems and crunch data, which is a very different entry point into computer science than a pure software track. That scientific computing background makes her especially effective at teaching programming logic, debugging strategies, and algorithmic thinking to students who need CS skills for STEM applications rather than just app development.
