About Robinson


Bio

Hi! I’m Robinson — a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Central Florida. I earned my B.S. in Computer Science (2022) and my M.S. in Computer Science (2024). Python is the language I’m most fluent in, and it’s what I use every day for research and applied projects. I also genuinely love math: it’s been my favorite subject for years, I won my high school math award, I earned a 5 on AP Calculus AB, and I later took Calculus II and Calculus III through the University of Florida...

Hi! I’m Robinson — a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Central Florida. I earned my B.S. in Computer Science (2022) and my M.S. in Computer Science (2024). Python is the language I’m most fluent in, and it’s what I use every day for research and applied projects. I also genuinely love math: it’s been my favorite subject for years, I won my high school math award, I earned a 5 on AP Calculus AB, and I later took Calculus II and Calculus III through the University of Florida online and earned A’s in both. That combination (strong math + strong programming) lets me help students both understand concepts and execute them correctly under pressure.

I’ve spent multiple semesters teaching and supporting students in structured academic settings. At UCF I’ve been a Graduate Teaching Assistant for core CS courses, where I led labs/recitations, held office hours, and gave detailed feedback on programming assignments. I’ve also TA’d Discrete Math and other foundational courses, so I’m used to helping students who feel stuck build the habits that make everything easier: breaking problems down, tracking assumptions, and explaining their reasoning clearly. Outside the university setting, I review student work for a Generative AI program, which has made me very comfortable giving direct, practical feedback in a supportive way.

When we meet, I’ll usually start by asking a few quick questions to pinpoint exactly where things are breaking down. Then we’ll work through a small number of high-value examples together (or debug your code step-by-step), and I’ll leave you with a short plan you can realistically follow between sessions. I reply promptly, and if you send a couple of problems or your code/error message ahead of time, we can use the session time much more efficiently. I primarily tutor online for flexibility and focus, and I’m open to limited in-person sessions near UCF when it’s a good fit.
