Milan
Certified Computer Science Tutor
Milan
BA Stanford University
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Dennis
Certified Computer Science Tutor
Dennis
BA Rutgers University (New Brunswick)
1+ Years Tutoring

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
BA Clark University
15+ Years Tutoring

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.

Brian
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.

Christina
BA Northwestern University
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Nat
BA Vanderbilt University
9+ Years Tutoring

Learning to code is really learning to decompose problems — figuring out what a program needs to do before writing a single line. Nat is double-majoring in computer science at Vanderbilt and unpacks core topics like loops, conditionals, data structures, and algorithm design in ways that build genuine understanding. Whether a student is writing their first Python script or debugging recursive functions, he connects each concept to the logic behind it.

Victoria
BA Washington University in St. Louis
6+ Years Tutoring

From data structures and algorithms to computational complexity, Victoria covers the core CS concepts that show up in both coursework and technical interviews. Studying computer science and math simultaneously at WashU gave her a knack for explaining the mathematical reasoning behind topics like recursion, sorting efficiency, and graph traversal. She holds a 5.0 rating from students.

Kashish
BA Brown University
1+ Years Tutoring

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.

Noah
BA Duke University
6+ Years Tutoring

A Duke CS graduate now pursuing a Master's in Cybersecurity, Noah covers everything from foundational data structures and algorithms to systems-level concepts like memory management and network protocols. He breaks down abstract topics — recursion, Big-O analysis, object-oriented design — by connecting them to real problems rather than leaving them as textbook definitions. Students get someone who's still actively building in the field, not just teaching from notes.

9+ Years Tutoring

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.

Jonathan
BA Cornell University
1+ Years Tutoring

Studying both chemical engineering and computer science at Cornell gives Jonathan an unusual angle on programming — he's constantly writing code to solve quantitative, real-world problems rather than just completing standalone assignments. That dual perspective makes him especially effective at teaching algorithmic thinking and Java or Python fundamentals, since he can show students how CS concepts like iteration and data manipulation actually get applied in technical fields outside of software development.

John
PhD Cornell Law School • BA Yale University
15+ Years Tutoring

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.
