AWESOME !!!

Tanner is simply awesome. He is patient, flexible and genuinely cares about ensuring that the students excel and is able to simplify concepts and make them easy to understand. My son really enjoyed learning from him and scored a perfect 5 on his AP exam for computer science principles.

Helpful and Effective AP Computer Science Principles Tutor

Tanner is a very personable, helpful, and knowledgeable AP Computer Science Principles tutor. He completed two one-hour on-line sessions with my high school junior daughter to prepare for the AP Comp Sci Principles exam and final test. They covered material for the AP Comp Sci exam. They spent one session working through a variety of topics and questions that extended into every unit of the course. And during the second session, they worked through multiple choice practice questions preparing for the AP computer science exam. They discussed concepts and testing strategies over a variety of questions. Update July 2025: My daughter scored a 100 on her in-class final and a 5 on the AP Exam. She definitely benefited from those two tutoring sessions with Tanner. We would highly recommend Tanner to any students that need help preparing for the AP Comp Sci exam or classroom tests.

Nice Tutor

Tanner is really patient and kind, and helped my son get to know the AP test system a bit more, which is pretty different from my son coding for robotics related things in Python or C++. Tanner helped improve my son's logical thinking skills, and also helped brush up on some Java.
