About Me

I have always been a huge fan of helping others and computer science, so I thought that I might as well combine the two! I have always been looking for opportunities to help others around me, including tutoring and volunteer activities. This has been a part of me for as long as I can remember, and I have been tutoring students that surround me since before High School. I'm currently is college as a freshman, going towards a major in computer science, software development, and a minor in sociology. I love the wide range of uses that computer science can be implemented into, and I absolutely enjoy learning how others see problems before them and how they proceed in getting through that problem. With all of that being said, I will be tutoring a variety of computer science languages and subjects, such as Java, C++, and Ap computer science classes. I tend to take the first quarter of the very first tutor session to get to know who I will be tutoring in order to gear lessons towards something they can easily digest. I like to include activities or subjects that they may enjoy into lessons in order for the students to more accurately, and actively, learn their lesson. This also helps keep the student focused on their subject and even make the tutoring session enjoyable!
