Graduate from one of the top engineering schools in the US: UC Berkeley, I got my degree in computer science and electrical engineering! I personally know what its like to struggle when it comes to complicated math courses and computer science. I was able to develop many techniques to problem solve which I am more than happy to pass on to all of you! My goal is to help you succeed and help you beat the learning curve!

Graduate from one of the top engineering schools in the US: UC Berkeley, I got my degree in computer science and electrical engineering! I personally know what its like to struggle when it comes to complicated math courses and computer science. I was able to develop many techniques to problem solve which I am more than happy to pass on to all of you! My goal is to help you succeed and help you beat the learning curve! As of right now I am working as a computer vision and robotics engineer for a laser cutter company, so I also have real world experience which I am more than happy to share. I have been happily tutoring in the STEM field for over 6 years.

One example of a time I taught was when I was using another tutoring website and the person needed help with coding a 3d graph that displayed mathematical equations using matplotlib, numpy and python. They were having trouble displaying the surface of a merged graph. I walked them through the process and explained each step to displaying the plot. I taught them the fundamentals of navigating the docs for the library so that in the future they knew how to use it on their own. I also reminded the person of basic principles such as function calls, arrays and data structures. After the session the person seemed to understand the fundamentals much more clearly

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have studied and applied algebra to many real world problems for over 7 years. I am patient and love all subjects related to math. I am currently working as a computer vision engineer for Full Spectrum Laser, where we use 3d cameras to engrave and cut metals using lasers. I have also been tutoring for about 5 years now so I know how to maximize a students potential and help them make learning fun!
C++

C++

I have extensive experience in C++ development for embedded systems, particularly in the aerospace and robotics industries. My expertise lies in designing real-time software solutions that interact directly with hardware, ensuring high-performance, reliability, and safety. I’ve worked on systems involving flight control, navigation, and onboard avionics, optimizing code for minimal latency and resource constraints. Whether it’s low-level hardware programming or system integration, I help students understand how to write efficient C++ code that meets the demanding requirements of embedded systems.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

- I have experience in a lot of different languages including: Python, Java, JavaScript, C, C++, C#, Matlab, HTML and CSS - I am family with a lot of software structures and I am familiar with tools such as Git Desktop, Visual Studio and Jira - As a Software Engineer I have focused a lot on business code and full stack development - I have experience with a lot of libraries and can help you use programming to solve all types of problems
Computer Science

Computer Science

I have been teaching Computer Science for the last 5 years including algorithms, data structures, and computer architecture. I also have 4 years of professional experience as a software engineer
Geometry

Geometry

I have over 5 years of experience applying geometry to real world problems and teaching geometry to various age groups. I am very patient and will help you reach your goal within a couple of lessons. We can explore the different routes to make sure that you understand all the concepts in Geometry. I can help make sure you don't fall behind in your math classes. Reach out to see if I have any promotions going on!

Very knowledgeable.

I am a new learner with Pythin and Jonathan helped me with a data scraping project. He was quickly able to write the code and provided explanation along the way.

Outstanding tutor who really knows his stuff!

Jonathan is extremely knowledgeable and patient. I look forward to working with him going forward! The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. I got about fifty feet out and suddenly, the great beast appeared before me. I tell you, he was ten stories high if he was a foot. As if sensing my presence, he let out a great bellow. I said, "Easy, big fella!" And then, as I watched him struggling, I realized that something was obstructing its breathing. From where I was standing, I could see directly into the eye of the great fish.

Great Tutor

Jonathan helped me with Python for a college class. His approach to working on the problem with you was especially helpful for me. His lessons also adapted to my needs, solving problems or explaining concepts.

BETTER PROFESSOR THAN MY PROFESSORS

Will make sure you understand, and reach task completion. Very flexible and kind. Could not have asked for a better tutor.

Oseghale, 16 lessons with Jonathan

Amazing Tutor!!

Very experienced, incredibly thorough and patient throughout the process of fixing errors in a program and understanding the platform. Jonathan was really helpful throughout a challenging project, that required alot of adaptability and experience to navigate.

Cleo, 3 lessons with Jonathan

Excellent Tutor

Johnathan was very patient with me during the tutoring session and he was clear in explaining concepts in python I'm studying. I would recommend him to anyone.

Ivette, 2 lessons with Jonathan

Knowledgeable and Kind

Jonathon was wonderful at explaining Python to me in ways that I could understand. He encouraged me to come up with solutions on my own while offering guidance to help me figure things out. I could not recommend a better tutor! I will definitely be using him again!!

Harley, 4 lessons with Jonathan

Very helpful

Jonathan patiently worked around our crazy schedule and was able to help my son overcome some challenges before a test. Would definitely use again and recommended.

Jessica, 1 lesson with Jonathan

Patient, Knowledgable, and Flexible Tutor

Jonathan is a great tutor. This semester he has been helping me with several of my coding classes and is flexible across programming languages. He is currently helping me with Python and HTML. He is very good at rewording/rephrasing complex concepts to make them more understandable. He has a great teaching style, and he is also funny, which makes learning more enjoyable. He goes above and beyond to be a great tutor!
