Patient Tutor- Math, Digital Literacy, & Computer Science

Sumaiyah Nadira R.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Boston University, which laid the groundwork for my passion for technology and programming. Currently, I am one class away from completing my degree in Cybersecurity from Georgia Institute of Technology, further enhancing my expertise in this rapidly evolving field. This educational background not only equips me with technical skills but also instills an understanding of the theoretical concepts that underlie cybersecurity and digital literacy. As a teacher, I have the privilege of sharing this knowledge and fostering a sense of curiosity in my students.

For the past three years, I have served as a Computer Science and Digital Literacy teacher. In this role, I have developed and implemented a curriculum that covers a wide range of topics, including coding, cyber practices, and safe internet practices. My approach to teaching emphasizes interactive and hands-on learning, where students participate in projects that apply their skills in real-world scenarios. By encouraging collaboration and problem-solving among students, I have created an engaging classroom environment that inspires learners to achieve their full potential.

Throughout my teaching career, I have worked primarily with middle and high school students, allowing me to tailor my methods to suit their developmental stages. My experience includes both classroom teaching and mentoring through after-school programs, where I actively support students in their projects and interests in technology. I firmly believe that fostering a growth mindset and instilling confidence in students' abilities are critical components of effective teaching. This combination of my educational background and diverse teaching experiences positions me well to provide effective tutoring in computer science, math, and digital literacy, helping students navigate the world with confidence and competence.
