"I hold a Master of Science in Computer Science with a concentration in Data Science, and a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a concentration in Software Engineering and a minor in Mathematics. I have professional experience as a Software Engineer and later as a Software Development Engineer in Test. In these roles, I worked with Python, Java, SQL, JavaScript, and Git to build, test, and support real software systems. This background allows me to explain computer science concepts using practical examples that connect classroom material to how software works in the real world.

My tutoring style is patient, structured, and well-suited for high school students and first-year college students who are new to computer science. I focus on building strong fundamentals in programming and data structures by breaking problems into clear steps and explaining ideas in plain language. Many students feel overwhelmed when learning computer science for the first time, so I focus on clarity and confidence. My goal is to help students understand the material, improve their problem-solving skills, and feel comfortable asking questions as they learn." less...
