Sid: Experienced Personable Tutor | CS + Finance Background

Siddhant K.

As a double major in Computer Science and Finance at the University of Pittsburgh, I have developed a strong academic foundation across both technical and analytical disciplines. My coursework has included data structures, algorithms, programming in Java and C, discrete mathematics, statistics, microeconomics, and financial modeling—subjects I now help students understand with clarity and confidence. My diverse studies have enabled me to connect with students across STEM and business fields and explain complex concepts in ways that are both intuitive and results-driven.

I have extensive one-on-one tutoring experience, both formally and informally, working with elementary through high school and college students. I’ve supported students preparing for AP Computer Science exams, undergraduate Java and Python coursework, calculus, logic, and even early exposure to programming for middle school learners. I tailor each session to the student’s learning style—breaking concepts into manageable pieces, encouraging active problem solving, and using real-world analogies to improve understanding. I emphasize foundational understanding rather than rote memorization, helping students become independent learners.

My approach is patient, practical, and always student-centered. Whether helping a student debug code, prepare for an exam, or build confidence in problem-solving, I focus on building long-term skills. Tutoring is not just about content delivery—it’s about mentorship and academic empowerment. I look forward to helping students achieve their goals through clear instruction, personalized support, and a deep respect for the learning process.
