Computer Programming Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Federal Way, WA

Java, Python, Javascript, C, Shell By knowing your background and goals, generally teach in three styles: 1. If you are a quick learner and have a good memory, I'll show you a lot of examples and explanations, try to give you the knowledge scope first and tackle the issues one by one deeper later (Top to Bottom) 2. If you are a free thinker and always have questions, I'll try to let you drive and be ready to Q&A anytime, then help you connect the dot and let you find the big picure (Bottom to Top) 3. If you just want to achieve utilitarianism, we will pick the most "profitable" area and dive deep (Cherry Pick) I hold a bachelor degree in electrical & computer engineering, a master degree in computer science & engineering, have 2+ years of working experience in industry as a software developer, currently I'm a software developer at Amazon, developing internal services in JAVA, maintai

I present the information or concepts at hand in several different ways. I draw on the learners personal experiences to make the information or concepts relevant to them. I help the learner tie the information or concepts to their own knowledge base thus establishing ownership. I tutored for the Federal Way, WA campus of DeVry University from spring of 2007 to fall of 2008. I tutored students in English, multiple maths, programming, game design, logic, and test prep. I stopped tutoring to devote my time to the final project of my degree. Now I'm an independent video game developer tutoring to make "ends meet" while I'm working on my first commercial game project.

I am a recent graduate of the University of Washington. My studies focused on physics, pure/abstract mathematics, applied mathematics, computer science, as well as some work in statistics and engineering disciplines. I have a BS in Applied Computational Mathematical Sciences which is a hybrid degree that focuses on all of the disciplines listed above. Throughout school I have run several personal businesses and developed training, management, and communication skills. I have tutored mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, statistics, and computer science. Having the opportunity to work with and help all sorts of students has allowed me to better define and shape the methods that I use to teach and assist students. I would describe my teaching style as very dynamic. I try my best to explore what methods of thinking and presentation work best for each individual student. I typically try

I really believe that everyone has their own learning style. As a Psychology major, I understand and adapt to all learning preferences, whether it be visual, auditory or tactile and provide the best tools and strategies for learning. I am very patient and easygoing but believe that everyone can achieve great things given the right tools and resources. I obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Foreign Languages and Cultures with an emphashis on French at Washington State University. At the same institution, I was a volunteer tutor. Between August 2007 and May 2009 I was a tutor for individuals getting their High school diplomas. I volunteered to tutor at the High School Equivalency Program(HEP) at Washington State University. In the program I tutored 20 Mexican/Mexican American students in various subjects including: math, science, and English. I also provided guidance and preparation for the GED

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. As one of the top graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned bachelor degrees maths, Physics, Accounting, and French. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and l

I've taught in a Preschool classroom at my church for 1 year, and I've been a substitute teacher for the 2nd grade classroom at my church for 2 years. I've homeschooled two children for the past 11 years, and I've spent two years as a math instructor at a homeschool co-op. I've also worked as a tutor for Eastern Washington University's Computer Sciene Department for 2 years, and I've mentored several co-workers in software development over the past 28 years. I treat math phobias and anxiety with respect. I teach students to be relentless when conquering their math problems. With the younger crowd, I often turn it into a game. With older kids and teens, I stress the importance of exposure and repetition.

I believe that every student can learn, given the right approach. Sometimes the "right approach" requires explaining the concept in several different ways, or includes a more interactive process with experimentation or discussion. I try to work with each student to find the correct approach. In addition, I believe that one of the most important parts of tutoring is giving the student confidence in their own abilities, and I try to provide as much encouragement as possible. I graduated in May 2009 with a BS in Engineering from Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering, a prestigious technical school in Needham, Massachusetts. Aside from my engineering coursework, I completed an arts and humanities concentration and capstone in Political Science, focusing on third world development and ethno-political conflict. I served as a course assistant for math and science courses throughout much of

In the past I have worked with students both one and one and within a group setting, and feel comfortable adapting to any particular group or individual's needs. I believe effective teachers must compose a delicate balance of meticulous discipline and natural concern. The best teachers and professors of my academic career were not only intelligent, but carried a contagious passion for what they studied. I would like to think my teaching style is the same. In college I volunteer tutored at the Crawford Country READ center to a pupil struggling with reading comprehension, writing and mathematics. In addition to this, during my senior year at Allegheny College I was a teaching assistant for a Research Design and Statistics I and II course. Furthermore, I am currently living in Pittsburgh as a private tutor. As a recent college graduate I can understand the difficulties some students may fac

While completing my BS in engineering, I spent two years tutoring math, physics, and optics. During my senior year I was also able to teach a portion of two terms of the freshman optics class. During the last four years I have worked as an aerospace engineer, and as a private contractor. Although these weren't teaching positions, I believe that these experiences have given me unique opportunities to share my knowledge and will be helpful to me in the future for teaching and tutoring. What strikes me most as I look back at my education is how much of an impact a teacher can have when they make their subject relevant to their students. When I am teaching I try to find out what motivates each student as a person, in addition to what is motivating them to take the class. My goal is to find a way to present the material in such a way that the experience of learning is a journey of meanin

I will work with the students and find where out where they are weakest. By doing so I will be able to give them the knowledge required to understand the material they are struggling with instead of teaching them how to solve the problem at that moment which will prevent them from struggling with mathematics their entire school career. I believe that with out understanding what is going on in the background the students will never fully understand what they are doing. Thus having worked with them to make their weak points their strong points they will gain the confidence needed to go into an exam and pass with a strong grade. I want to help the kids that others have given up on because I feel that it's these students that have the greatest potential to succeed if given the proper guidance in life.

I have always enjoyed teaching children of all ages. I've had experience as a teaching assistant that has well prepared me as a tutor. I am very laid back and patient while finding a positive way to encourage students to meet their potential. I am a firm believer in positive reinforcement and enabling students to feel comfortable in their learning environment. I believe that education can be the foundation for a successful and happy life which is why I am so enthusiastic about assisting others with their educational goals. I graduated from the University of Washington in 2008 with a dual degree in Accounting and Information Systems. In 2009, I sat for and passed all four section of the CPA examination.

My interest in educating others sparked when I first conducted a training program for engineers in my work place. Since then I explored the field of learning and development and gained a lot of knowledge on how knowledge flows from person to person. Inspired by my findings, I did my master’s thesis on Knowledge Management. Today, I share my knowledge with my co-workers by presenting new information. I do it in a way that is interesting and easy to understand. If there is one way I can differentiate myself with others, it is the way I share and present knowledge. I am interesting in tutoring under graduates, high school students on math, physics, chemistry, statistics and computer science. I help people to understand complex ideas, gain new knowledge by presenting the information that is interesting and easy to follow. I use a lot of analogy when presenting the information. I choose a
