Lucas
BA Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus
4+ Years Tutoring

I am an undergraduate at Penn State - University Park and pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a focus on Artificial Intelligence and a minor in Business. I have worked as a tutor for three years, and love teaching in any STEM field. I was a lead tutor for a programming company, Code Ninjas, and have significant experience with mechanical and electrical physics. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I always enjoy teaching computer science as I find that computer literacy is a crucial skill as our world grows more technical. I have experience both with students who are completely new to computer science and those who are preparing for AP Exams and everything in between. I have studied Python, Java, and JavaScript; any program that you need to understand and accelerate in your class. I try to make education fun and more personal than in a classroom setting and hope that you take away the knowledge you need to strive in the STEM fields.

BA University of Pennsylvania
3+ Years Tutoring

I am majoring in Computer Science with a concentration in Data Science and a minor in Math. During my time in college, I have tutored and taught underserved students in Computer Science whether they were prepping for the AP exam or first time coding. As humans get technologically more advanced, I am a firm believer in introducing Computer Science earlier in education. Computer Science can be used in almost every field out there. Although I have a plenty of experiences teaching Computer Science, I have also tutored students in STEM subjects, in particular math and physics.

I'm a college student at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. I am in my junior year of a computer science degree. Outside of classes, I work as a college tour guide, IT technician, and camp counselor. I love working with young people to plan for and achieve success, especially as it pertains to test and college prep. I have been working with young people from an early age, at summer camps, church groups, and as a part of my college's admissions department. I am ready to adapt to every student's unique learning styles and habits, and I hope to see my work inspire a boost in performance and confidence for many.

Mark
BS Rochester Institute of Technology
7+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate from Rochester Institute of Technology with a master's in Game Design and Development. My passions lie in everything related to games and mathematics. In the past, I have tutored various subjects in mathematics throughout high school and college, including but not limited to Algebra, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Calculus, Discrete Mathematics, Mathematics of Graphical Simulation, and Linear Algebra. As for technology, I am more than happy to reach out for help in Web Development (HTML, CSS, Javascript) or C# programming. I believe that every person can learn any topic. While every individual has different tastes, strengths, and weaknesses, there is no such thing as an "incapability" to know a subject. Education often possesses a guise of anti-fun, but I can promise you that all topics can be engaging, and I am willing to show you how engaging mathematics and technology can be. As a Game Designer, I have a deep interest in both playing games and making games. This includes games of all kinds: video games, board games, tabletop role-playing games, trading card games, miniatures, and even some sports like tennis or ping pong. Games act as a fantastic teaching tool. They teach by design without users recognizing. It is always a satisfying moment when somebody says "I learned that word from Magic" or "D&D taught me that." Remember: you can succeed. If something is important to you, then it's always worthwhile.

Darren
BA Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis
1+ Years Tutoring

Triple-majoring in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Economics at IUPUI means Darren lives in Java and algorithmic thinking daily — not just for one class, but across disciplines that each demand rigorous logic and clean code. That cross-disciplinary perspective is especially useful for AP Computer Science A's free-response questions, where breaking a problem into smaller computational steps mirrors the same decomposition skills his math and econ coursework reinforces every week.

Hannah
BA Washington University in St. Louis
14+ Years Tutoring

AP Computer Science isn't listed among Hannah's core subjects, but her physics degree required writing code to model systems, analyze data, and solve computational problems — skills that map directly onto the algorithmic thinking and logical reasoning the AP exam tests. She's strongest at teaching students to slow down and trace through control flow and conditionals methodically, the same systematic approach her physics training drilled into her.

William
Current Undergrad, Biomedical Engineering + Chemical Engineering Vanderbilt University
1+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 5 on the AP Computer Science exam while simultaneously deep in calculus, biology, and chemistry APs gave William a clear picture of how CS thinking differs from other STEM disciplines — it's less about formulas and more about structuring logic step by step. His dual engineering track at Vanderbilt (biomedical and chemical) means he regularly writes code to process lab data and model systems, keeping Java concepts like iteration, array handling, and method design sharp through actual use rather than exam review alone.
