I’m a MA state qualified teacher that has been tutoring professionally for 8+ years. I tutor in both CS and math, and I love Discrete Math specifically because it’s the intersection of the two. I was a CS major in undergrad (GPA 3.9/4.0) and got an A in Discrete Math. Ask me for help with proofs by induction, graph theory, and whether infinity is countable. Most importantly, I’m patient and will work at your pace!

Knowledgeable and Patient

Avi was very friendly and patient and made me feel confident that I would be able to do good in the introduction to Computer programming course in college. I had initially taken the course but dropped it because of its fast pace.

Help Session

Avi was wonderful in helping me understand algorithms. I appreciated her willingness to walk through things with me. I look forward to working with her in the future

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

I requested the lesson for my daughter to help with catching up and studying for AP Comp. Sci principles (Python). Wyzant recommended Avi and I am so relieved my daughter finally has the support she needs. Prior to the lesson Avi explained her teaching style and answered all my questions. My daughter walked out of the tutoring session smiling and told me she understood the material. I will definitely request another lesson with Avi when needed. Thanks Avi!

Great teacher, and very patient!

Avi was so patient with helping me with my coding assignment. They were super welcoming and made me feel less nervous and comfortable throughout the whole process! They also explained very well certain things that I was confused on. I will be booking future sessions with them very soon!

AWESOME AND INTELLIGENT TUTOR!!!!!!!

Avi is the only Java tutor who is patient, and clearly knows how to work with beginning coders with limited experience. She is definitely knowledgeable about coding and knows how to collaborate with students. Avi has a great personality which is rare as most tutors I’ve met on here are selfish, conceited and impatient. Being able to interact with your tutor is so important. On this website its like discovering a new element that can change your whole perspective and approach on coding. She simplifies the problem, and helps me think about my next step in order to solve a problem. She is a great teacher!!!I wish I had started taking lessons with her earlier instead of wasting my time with other tutors who lack social skills, and do all the work for you without teaching you a thing. What’s the point in that? I would have grasped some of the basic fundamental concepts needed by now in order to to code if Avi was my first instructor. If your a beginner coder whose wandering aimlessly in sights like Hacker Rank with no clue and seriously want to learn to code with a professional, then Avi is the best tutor from my experience.

Knowledgeable and experienced tutor

Avi was able to help in mastering algebra 2 problem methods and help build confidence in my daughter for her exam. They used Jamboard and made session interactive and my daughter to think about different strategies before solving problems. I would suggest Avi to any students who are looking for experienced tutor.

Knowledge/Patient

'She was very patient and helpful. She was able to give Michael some "tricks" for remembering certain things he admitted to be confused by. Michael ended the session feeling much more confident.
