I want to know how you learn best! I am dedicated to making tutoring sessions engaging and effective with my personalized and flexible approach to teaching. If you're looking to boost your (or your child's) learning and understanding, let's work together!

I have taught and tutored at all levels including K-12, SAT/ACT/GRE, undergraduate, and graduate studies. This includes private tutoring as well as university-employed group- and individual-tutoring and TA-ing.

I know how rewarding it is to write good, clean, efficient code and solutions and I understand how any math, physics, or coding problem can be solved with a variety of approaches and perspectives. My expertise across different subjects allows me to help people connect ideas and identify patterns that make learning and problem solving easier.

Computer Science

I have several degrees in computational fields. I have worked with many coding languages and a large assortment of CS projects of varying sizes. I have tutored students in data structures, Assembly, computational math/physics, dynamics simulations, Python applications, and more.
Fortran,

Fortran

I have coded in Fortran and worked with Fortran packages as an applied scientist and mathematician for several years. This includes applied linear algebra and differential equations as well as dynamical systems including CFD (and packages such as FLASH and GFD). I have also utilized Fortran in graduate level research and studies.
MATLAB,

MATLAB

I have coded extensively in Matlab for mathematics and physics applications in both research and university-level coursework. I am fluent in the use of several Matlab packages including optimization, plotting, inporting and exporting, writing clean and modular functions and programs, and more. Additionally, I have been a teaching assistant and tutor for several courses that utilize Matlab.

Computer Science

Lia helped me many times while I went through my computer science 2 course. Lia has all the best traits you want in a teacher. She’s very patient, and always did a great job explaining some of the harder concepts to understand in computer science. I would highly recommend Lia if you need help with programming.
