Matthew

Certified Tutor

I am a senior at the University of North Florida working on finishing up my Bachelor of Science degree. My major is Computing & Information Sciences with a concentration in Computer Science and my minor is Mathematics. Before attending UNF's School of Computing, I graduated from St. Johns River State College with an Associate of Science degree for Computer Programming & Analysis and an Associate of Arts degree. I maintain a personal GitHub repository showcasing my portfolio of programming projects.

Technology, engineering, computers, and their underlying mathematics/sciences are my life's passion. After graduating from UNF, my goal is to secure a position in the field of software engineering. My primary focus in teaching is CS-related: Computer Programming (C/C++/C#, Java, Python, Visual Basic), Web Development (ASP, HTML, JavaScript, PHP), and Data Structures. My secondary focus is Math-related: Remedial/Elementary Mathematics, Geometry, Beginner/Intermediate/College Algebra, and Pre-Calculus.

My teaching style is adaptive. Being a student myself, I know that each student learns differently and has different needs. My goal when teaching is not just to help you pass a quiz, exam, or course; it is to arm you with the necessary knowledge and understanding to enable you to succeed in the future. If one approach does not succeed, I am prepared to come at the problem from a different direction. Real-world problems often require unorthodox and novel solutions. You deserve an instructor equipped to provide you with an unorthodox and novel learning experience!
