Hello all, I attended University of Delaware and have a Biology BA degree and minors in computer science and bioinformatics. Teaching played a large role in my university career. I spent 3 years teaching the freshman year Chemistry workshop, 2 years as the lead tutor for the biology and chemistry tutoring center, and 1 year as an upper-level genetics TA.
Tutoring has been fundamental to me as a way of cementing my own learning and improving the educational experience of other students. I greatly enjoy working with students to conquer topics that were troubling them and building a rapport.

I've taken a fair variety of general science courses and have taught a workshop or tutored in most of the general science classes I have taken. Genetics is my specialty and my strongest subject. I have well-rounded Chemistry knowledge feeling comfortable teaching most of the topics covered at the college-level general chemistry classes. In Biology, I focus on topics related to genetics, cell biology, general plant and animal biology.

My minors in bioinformatics and computer science have given me a strong foundation in computer science. I have taken a different route into this subject due to not being a core computer science major but that has allowed me to have different insights and understand the fundamentals in a way I can teach to others. This has been strengthened by me tutoring students in computer programming assisting them through the problems and explaining the principles behind the language semantics. I am comfortable in teaching Scheme (DrRacket), Python, and Java computer programming languages.

Please feel free to reach out to me and we can explore if I will be a good fit as a tutor for your needs. I look forward to exploring new problems with you and learning more together.

Computer Science

I have completed a computer science and Bioinformatics minor at my university that gave me a strong base in computer science knowledge. Some of the research I did at my university involved me making my own programs for the workflow we were doing. I have held individualized tutoring for computer science before.
Genetics

Genetics

I've been a TA for genetics for 3 semesters, the class I TA for was aimed at Junior and Seniors at my university. I have taken an additional two genetics based labs (computational genetics and experimental genetics) that increased my knowledge in the subject. I have also done individualized based tutoring for genetics as well.
Python

Awesome tutor

I had several sessions with Connor over this last semester to help me through a programming class. I would not have made it through it without him. He is very knowledgeable, patient, and tries to adjust his way of explaining to your way of thinking. I was very comfortable asking all questions I felt insecure about without any worry of what he would think of my level of knowledge. He was always on time and flexible with fitting me in his schedule. Just a really great experience. Don't look any further!

Caring and Passionate Tutor

If you need a tutor that will explain every single detail to you however many times you want in a clear concise manner, Connor is the best tutor you can have. I met Connor to learn about one of the most obscure coding languages and Connor never hesitated to guide me step by step. Most of the tutors on Wyzant are focused on the fees and do not focus on the student learning the materials. Connor is exactly the opposite. Not only will he always be happy to help you with assignments, but he will also invest his personal time outside of class to help solve and teach materials to you in the most efficient way possible. If you are looking for a coding tutor, there is no better tutor you can find than Connor!

Extremely smart

He solved some genetics past questions me that helped me passed my first exam. Definitely goes through the concepts and explains properly. I highly recommend him.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Went through each line of code I had trouble with very methodically, corrected the code and got it to run perfectly. Also explained everything very well. Highly recommend Connor for all programming related questions

Carrie, 2 lessons with Connor

Knowledgeable and intelligent tutor

Connor is a dedicated tutor who assisted my daughter with her coding class. My daughter feels much more comfortable and looking forward to her next session. I wish we had met him earlier.. my daughter would have started the class off more confident.
