I am currently a senior at Emory University studying chemistry and applied math with a focus on inorganic chemistry. I will be available to tutor algebra, trigonometry, algebra 2, biology, chemistry, calculus, geometry, pre- calculus, and ACT prep. I started tutoring in high school and continued tutoring at Emory where I tutored general chemistry, introductory biology, and calculus for two years. Apart from academic tutoring, I am also involved in Project SHINE which teaches English to recent Atlanta immigrants. I believe that education (no matter what kind) is crucial in life, but I also strive to emphasize why something is important. In my experience, most students struggle with something because they don't understand exactly why it is important or simply do not care. I am heavily involved in academic research at Emory so I am able to help a student understand exactly why a specific subject area is important and how it is continuously applied both in the lab and in the real world to improve our lives. It's always easier to see the physical and practical applications of a subject than try to visualize its importance on paper. In my spare time I enjoy chemistry, ancient Roman history, jam bands, running, cycling, and scuba diving.
Studying Computer Science at UT Austin, Omar digs into everything from data structures and algorithms to object-oriented design with students who are just getting started or preparing for AP-level work. He breaks down concepts like recursion and sorting algorithms by tracing through code line by line, making abstract logic feel concrete and buildable.

Rated 5.0 by students.
From data structures and algorithm complexity to systems-level thinking about how software actually runs on hardware, Miguel covers the full CS curriculum with the depth his own bachelor's degree demanded. He's particularly strong at teaching students to analyze runtime using Big-O notation and to choose the right data structure before writing a single line of code. Rated 4.9 by students.
Mechanical engineering at Rice means Aleksey writes code to solve physical problems — simulating heat transfer, modeling fluid dynamics, automating lab data analysis — which gives his CS tutoring a distinctly applied flavor. He teaches programming fundamentals like loops, functions, and object-oriented design through the lens of building something that actually works, not just passing a test. Holds a 5.0 rating.
Understanding computer science means thinking in layers: how data structures serve algorithms, how algorithms shape system design, and how abstractions connect to real hardware. Tolu earned a full stack web development certificate from UT Austin after studying economics at Stanford, so he bridges theoretical CS concepts with hands-on implementation across multiple languages. He presses students to articulate their reasoning at every step, which builds the kind of debugging intuition that textbooks can't teach.
Cornell's Electrical and Computer Engineering program, combined with a CS minor, gave Alexander deep exposure to everything from algorithms and data structures to digital logic and systems-level thinking.

From data structures and algorithm analysis to the fundamentals of how operating systems manage memory, Daniel covers computer science as someone actively deep in the coursework at Texas A&M. He's particularly strong at explaining recursive thinking and Big-O complexity in ways that stick beyond the next exam.
Learning to code is really learning to think in structured abstractions — loops, recursion, data structures, algorithms. Muhammad's electrical and computer engineering studies put him at the intersection of hardware and software, giving him a ground-up understanding of how computers actually execute the code you write. That perspective makes concepts like memory management, runtime complexity, and object-oriented design far more concrete.
From sorting algorithms to data structures to recursion, Lloyd approaches computer science as a toolkit for solving real problems rather than an abstract set of rules. His data science coursework at the University of Rochester keeps him fluent in both the theoretical foundations and the practical implementation side, which means he can explain why a hash map outperforms a list — not just how to use one.
Sandra earned her CS degree writing code and solving problems — and now she teaches everything from introductory programming logic to more advanced topics like data structures and algorithm design. What sets her apart is how naturally she connects computer science to the quantitative and analytical thinking she uses across her other subjects, so students see CS as a problem-solving framework rather than just syntax to memorize. Rated 5.0 by students.
Studying computer science at Columbia gave Jeremy a ground-up understanding of everything from data structures and algorithms to object-oriented design.

He also enjoys introducing students to new programming languages, a hobby he pursues outside the classroom.
Pursuing a computer science degree with a focus on software development, Jacob lives this material daily — from data structures like linked lists and binary trees to algorithm analysis using Big-O notation. He explains these foundational concepts by tracing through code step by step, so students see how an abstract idea like recursion actually executes in practice.
From data structures and algorithm complexity to operating systems concepts in Linux, Sourav covers the full CS curriculum with the perspective of someone who studied it formally and then applied it in technology commercialization. He's especially strong on the practical side — debugging code, tracing recursive calls, and understanding why a hash map outperforms a linked list for a given problem.
Shauna's IT degree and daily work with coding and robotics give her a practitioner's view of computer science, not just a textbook one. She unpacks core concepts like variables, control flow, and data structures by connecting them to real projects — building a simple game loop or automating a repetitive task — so abstract ideas become tangible. Students walk away understanding the logic, not just copying syntax.
Jacqueline writes production code daily as a software engineer and holds a B.S. in Computer Science from UT Austin, so she teaches concepts like recursion, data structures, and algorithm complexity from real-world experience rather than purely academic examples. Whether a student is debugging their first Python script or wrestling with graph traversal, she breaks problems into manageable pieces. Her Human-Computer Interaction minor also means she thinks carefully about how people learn technical material.
Bennet is pursuing a computer science degree while simultaneously interning as a working programmer, which means he bridges the gap between academic theory and production-level practice. He unpacks core topics like data structures, algorithm complexity, and recursion by connecting them to real code he's written professionally.
Currently pursuing a CS degree at UT Austin — and coding for quantum computers in his spare time — Sarvesh lives and breathes this subject. He tackles everything from basic data structures and algorithms to object-oriented design, breaking abstract concepts into concrete, step-by-step logic that students can trace on paper before writing a single line of code. His teaching style prioritizes understanding the 'why' behind each approach, not just memorizing syntax.
The jump from writing simple programs to understanding algorithms, data structures, and computational complexity is where computer science gets genuinely hard. Neel's combined training in mathematics and CS at UT Austin means he can explain why a sorting algorithm runs in O(n log n) time — not just how to implement it. He holds a 5.0 rating from students.
Pursuing a CS degree with a math minor at Texas A&M, Nicholas brings C++ and Python fluency to topics like data structures, recursion, and algorithm complexity — and his mathematical training means he can explain the "why" behind runtime analysis instead of just asking students to memorize Big-O rules. He's especially sharp at connecting the programming side of CS to the discrete math concepts that underpin it. Rated 5.0 by students.
The overlap between mathematics and computer science is where Alonso thrives — algorithm analysis, Big-O notation, and discrete structures all draw directly on his math degree and statistics training. He unpacks topics like graph traversal, sorting complexity, and data structure trade-offs in a way that builds genuine understanding. His 5.0 rating speaks to how well that approach lands with students.
Between his electrical and computer engineering degree from Olin and his current work as a software engineer, Subhash has lived on both the hardware and software sides of CS.

Frequently Asked Questions
During your first session, a tutor will assess your current programming knowledge, discuss your goals (whether that's mastering a specific language, preparing for AP Computer Science, or building projects), and identify areas where you need the most support. They'll also learn about your learning style and create a personalized plan tailored to your needs, so every session after that focuses on what matters most to you.
Debugging is one of the most valuable skills a tutor can help you develop. Rather than just pointing out what's wrong, tutors teach you systematic debugging strategies—like reading error messages carefully, using print statements or debuggers, and tracing through your code step-by-step. This approach helps you become independent at finding and fixing errors on your own, which is essential for real programming work.
Syntax is the specific rules of a programming language (like how to write a loop in Python vs. Java), while logic is the problem-solving approach behind your code—understanding how to break down a problem and design a solution. Many students struggle because they focus only on syntax without building strong logical thinking. Tutors help you develop both by teaching you to think algorithmically first, then translate that thinking into any language.
Absolutely. Project-based learning is one of the most effective ways to develop Computer Science skills. Tutors can guide you through building web applications, games, data analysis projects, or other applications that interest you. They'll help you break projects into manageable steps, review your code, suggest improvements, and teach you best practices—so you're learning by doing with expert feedback.
Data structures and algorithms are foundational but abstract—many students find them challenging because they require both logical thinking and visualization skills. Tutors break these concepts down with diagrams, worked examples, and hands-on coding practice. They help you understand not just how to implement a data structure, but why you'd use it, which builds the intuition you need to apply these concepts to real problems.
