Award-Winning AP Computer Science Principles Tutors
serving Bronx, NY

Nicholas codes in Java, Python, JavaScript, C#, and HTML/CSS daily — so when AP CSP asks students to reason about algorithms or data representation in pseudocode, he can instantly translate those abstractions into real programming scenarios that make the logic click. His Penn State CS degree also means he understands the networking and cybersecurity concepts woven through the course at a technical level most high schoolers never see. Rated 5.0 by students.

Stanford's economics curriculum leans heavily on data analysis and programming — skills that map directly onto AP CSP's units on data representation, algorithms, and computational thinking. Julia applies that quantitative training to demystify pseudocode logic and the Create Task's written responses, where clearly explaining your program matters as much as building it. Rated 4.8 by students.

John's CS degree plus years coding in Java, C++, and SQL means he can ground AP CSP's more abstract units — like how the internet actually moves data or why abstraction matters in program design — in real programming experience. He also brings a finance MBA perspective to the data analysis and societal impact questions, giving students a practical lens that makes exam responses sharper and more specific.

Currently studying Computer Science at UCLA's Engineering School with a software engineering internship at Adobe under his belt, David knows how the abstractions taught in AP CSP — algorithms, data representation, internet protocols — actually play out in production code. He uses that industry context to make pseudocode tracing and the Create Task feel purposeful rather than academic. Rated 4.8 by students.

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.

Mathematics trains you to think in abstractions — which is exactly what AP CSP's Big Ideas demand when students encounter data representation, algorithmic logic, or internet protocols for the first time. Nikhil's math background at NYU gives him a natural framework for making pseudocode tracing and binary concepts click, especially for students who think numerically but haven't written much code. Rated 4.8 by students.

I'm a professional software engineer at a top tech company in New York City. I have a strong passion for software development, most notably in the areas of full-stack web development, iOS development, Artificial intelligence, large scale distributed systems, and micro services.

I am a sophomore at Columbia University, studying political science and philosophy. I often like to joke that teaching runs in my blood I come from a family of teachers who instilled in me the passion to help others learn. Since I could grasp concepts I learned in school, I've always gone out of my way to help my fellow classmate. As I got older, that became formalized tutoring through school organizations and I eventually worked for the New York City Department of Education. There, I helped students with their standardized testing for the state assessments and the SAT. I love teaching math because I feel it's the subject where I can gauge the strength of my students best. Math is such a versatile (though widely-hated) subject, where every unique learning style can always result in the same answer. I also get the most freedom when it comes to designing questions to help students grow and practicing alongside them easily the most fun part of a tutoring session with me. I'm never shy when it comes to tutoring anything else, though, whether it be any sort of history, literature, or government-related topic. My goal as a tutor is not all about teaching anything new to my students, but instead drawing out the skills they already have.

Before teaching AP CSP concepts, Deeptha spent years as a TA for courses ranging from Introduction to Computation in Python to Automata and Formal Languages — meaning she's watched hundreds of students encounter computational thinking for the first time and knows exactly where confusion sets in. She uses that experience to break down the course's Big Ideas around the internet, data, and global impact into concrete examples students can actually write about on the exam.

Kyle knows six-plus programming languages — Python, Java, C++, JavaScript, C, and assembly — which means when AP CSP's exam asks students to trace pseudocode or reason about abstraction, he can pull up a real example in whatever language makes the concept clearest. He also walks students through the Create Task from initial brainstorm to written response, making sure every rubric point is addressed. Rated 5.0 by students.

AP CSP covers a mile-wide range — from binary and abstraction to the impact of computing on society — and the Create Task alone can make or break a student's score. Serina's computer science major at Yale means she can demystify concepts like data compression, algorithms, and the internet protocol stack while coaching students to write clean, well-documented code for their performance tasks.

Shlomo codes in Java and C++ and has tutored algorithms at the college level, so he can ground AP CSP's pseudocode and algorithmic reasoning questions in actual programming logic rather than hand-wavy definitions. His political science training also sharpens the kind of structured argumentation the Create Task's written responses demand — explaining computational decisions clearly and hitting every rubric point.

Nihar's math and statistics degree means the data analysis and algorithmic reasoning threads in AP CSP come naturally — he can explain how sorting algorithms compare or why a particular data compression method loses information, grounding it in the quantitative thinking most students skip over. His programming experience across Java, JavaScript, SQL, and HTML also lets him translate pseudocode exam questions into real code when a student needs to see the logic in action.

Having TA'd computer science courses at MIT and now pursuing a PhD in Operations Research at Georgia Tech, Isabella brings real programming fluency — particularly in Python — to the algorithmic thinking and data analysis threads that run through AP CSP. She digs into how pseudocode on the exam maps to actual code students write for the Create Task, making the connection between abstract logic and working programs click. Rated 5.0 by students.

Kerr is currently building iOS apps and games as a CS major at Vanderbilt, which means the programming and design thinking in AP CSP's Create Task mirrors what he does every week. He teaches pseudocode logic and algorithm design by connecting them to real development decisions — like why a particular data structure speeds up a game or how abstraction keeps an app's codebase manageable. Rated 4.9 by students.

Statistics training builds exactly the kind of thinking AP CSP actually tests — reading data representations, reasoning through algorithms on paper, and understanding how information gets encoded and compressed. Kyle applies that quantitative lens to the course's Big Ideas, turning abstract pseudocode traces and binary problems into structured, solvable puzzles. Rated 4.9 by students.

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.

Derek scored 5s on both AP Computer Science A and AP Physics C while taking 16 APs at the high school level, so he knows how to manage the breadth of a course like AP CSP without letting any Big Idea slip through the cracks. Now studying CS at Harvard with an applied math minor, he digs into the algorithmic thinking and pseudocode reasoning that drive the multiple-choice section — and coaches students through the Create Task with the structured planning habits that come from building real software projects.

Teaching discrete math at Penn means Keenan spends his weeks translating abstract computational thinking into language undergraduates actually absorb — a skill that maps directly onto AP CSP's pseudocode reasoning and algorithm analysis questions. His philosophy degree also gives him an unusual edge on the exam's societal-impact questions, where students need to construct clear written arguments about data privacy, bias in algorithms, and computing ethics. Rated 5.0 by students.

Alliyah codes in Python, Java, JavaScript, and C++ as part of her computational science studies at Harvard, which means she can translate AP CSP's pseudocode questions into real programming logic students actually recognize. She's especially sharp on the data representation and algorithmic thinking Big Ideas, grounding them in the kind of hands-on projects — like web development and data structures work — that make abstract exam concepts tangible.

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. Rated 4.8 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 biomedical engineering coursework at Rice means he writes algorithms to process real biological data — exactly the kind of computational thinking AP CSP tests through its Big Ideas on data analysis and abstraction. He brings that applied perspective to the Create Task, coaching students to plan, build, and document projects that hit every rubric criterion without overcomplicating the code.

Lance studied both theoretical mathematics and computer science as an undergraduate before entering medical school, which means he's written real code in Java, C, and SQL — not just traced pseudocode on a worksheet. That practical depth lets him teach AP CSP's algorithmic thinking and abstraction concepts through actual programming logic, giving students a clearer mental model when they hit the Create Task or encounter unfamiliar algorithm-tracing questions on the exam.

Payton is a Computer Science major at Texas A&M who codes in Python, C++, and Haskell — but AP CSP's exam cares more about pseudocode reasoning and explaining computational ideas in plain English than writing compilable programs. She teaches students to bridge that gap, translating real programming instincts into the kind of clear, structured responses the Create Task and multiple-choice questions actually reward.
