Susanna codes in Java, Python, and MATLAB — but for AP CSP, she shifts gears from syntax to the bigger questions: how does data move across the internet, why does abstraction matter, and what makes an algorithm efficient? Her physics training at UC Berkeley means she's used to translating messy real-world problems into clean logical models, which is exactly the skill the Create Task and exam reward.

Electrical engineering taught Jake to think in systems — how signals move, how data gets encoded, how layers of abstraction stack to make hardware and software talk to each other. That mindset maps directly onto AP CSP's trickiest material, from binary representation to internet protocols to algorithm tracing in pseudocode. He also teaches across five programming languages, so the Create Task's coding component comes naturally.

Cognitive science training at Stanford gave David an unusual lens for AP CSP — he studied how humans process information before studying how computers do, which means he can explain abstraction, algorithms, and data representation in terms that actually click. His experience teaching web and app development to high schoolers abroad sharpened his ability to walk students through the Create Task from planning to polished written response.

Daniel writes production software for a living and is pursuing a PhD in Computer Science, which means he can show students exactly how concepts like abstraction, algorithms, and data representation play out in real codebases — not just on slides. He's particularly effective at coaching the Create Task, walking students through project planning and the written responses that separate a 3 from a 5. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kevin's Stanford Biocomputation research sits at the intersection of CS and biology, which means he can teach AP CSP's algorithmic thinking and data analysis concepts through real examples — like how machine learning models process biological datasets or how compression algorithms handle genomic sequences. He also brings hands-on Python and C++ fluency to the Create Task, coaching students through both the programming and the written explanation that the rubric demands. Rated 5.0 by students.

Matthew codes in Java, C++, Python, and JavaScript — so when AP CSP asks students to reason about algorithms or explain how a program works in pseudocode, he can ground those abstractions in actual programming logic most students haven't seen yet. His Harvard math and CS coursework also means he's sharp on the data analysis and binary representation questions that trip up students who only studied the vocabulary. Rated 4.9 by students.

Software engineering internships at Apple and Microsoft gave Jerry a firsthand view of how the concepts in AP CSP — abstraction, algorithm design, data representation — actually play out in production code. He uses that industry context to make the Create Performance Task feel like a real development project rather than a classroom exercise, which sharpens both the programming and the written-response components. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a current student at the University of Michigan. I am studying molecular biology in the school of literature, science, and the arts. I will graduate in 2025. I am most passionate about teaching SAT test material, because that was an area that I focused on and improved my own score to reach my goals. I am excited to teach both the english and the math sections. I teach using extensive practice problems and practice tests, because that is what helped me learn best and improve my relevant skills. In my spare time I like to workout, swim at the beach, and surf. I would love to work with you to achieve your goals!

Daniel's electrical engineering coursework at Vanderbilt means he writes actual code in Java and works with hardware-software interfaces daily — background that makes the pseudocode and abstraction concepts in AP CSP click faster for students. He zeroes in on algorithm design and data representation, breaking down how binary encoding and compression work at the circuit level so the logic sticks. His 36 ACT composite speaks to the kind of structured, analytical thinking he brings to Create Task coaching and exam prep.

Studying neuroscience at Rice means Brett regularly writes code to analyze brain imaging data and model biological systems — practical computing experience that maps directly onto AP CSP's emphasis on data analysis, algorithms, and the real-world impact of technology. He teaches the pseudocode logic and abstraction concepts the exam tests by grounding them in problems students can actually picture. Rated 5.0 by students.

Dalila's math degree gives her a sharper lens on the algorithmic and data-representation units that carry the most weight in AP CSP — she can explain why a particular sorting approach scales better than another or how abstraction layers simplify a complex problem. For the Create Performance Task, she emphasizes building clean pseudocode logic first, then translating it into a written response that hits every rubric point without overcomplicating the code.

Studying both neuroscience and computer science at Duke means Ankit lives at the intersection AP CSP actually tests — how computing shapes real-world systems, from brain imaging pipelines to cybersecurity ethics. He digs into the algorithmic thinking and data representation questions that trip students up on the multiple-choice section, and coaches the Create Task from initial planning through the written response.
