Hi, my name is Zach! I graduated college in 2015 with a BS in computer science and a BA in game design and development. I worked as a peer tutor for three years during college, and I have been teaching computer science and software engineering classes as a part-time faculty at my university since the fall of 2016. I have about ten years of experience working with college students in both a one-on-one setting (peer tutoring appointments, office hours) and groups (hosting study groups, teaching classes, group office hour meetings). I primarily tutor and teach introductory computer science topics, but I have some experience tutoring algebra and other math topics from my time as a peer tutor.
As a tutor, my focus is on supporting students as they pursue their own goals. Whether you're taking a class or learning independently, I'm here to help you get the most out of the time and effort you invest in learning. I prefer to adapt lessons and tutoring sessions to what my student is currently working on, so I don't follow a set format. We can spend a tutoring session reviewing code, projects, or homework, discussing a new topic you're trying to understand, working on practice exercises, or whatever else would be helpful to you at the time.
Feel free to reach out any time. I'll try to get back to you within a day, and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have about tutoring sessions before you decide whether to book an appointment.
