Experienced AP CS A, Physics, Java & SAT Tutor

Advaith B.

I am a dedicated computer science and physics tutor with several years of experience teaching students from middle school through high school. I specialize in AP Computer Science A, AP Computer Science Principles, Java, Python, and introductory programming, as well as AP Physics 1 and AP Physics C. I have taught and tutored students in both one-on-one and group settings, and I have conducted over 60 sessions, working with more than 80 learners across 19 different countries. These experiences helped me develop a clear, patient, and structured teaching style that adapts to each student’s needs and learning pace.

My background includes serving as an NHS computer science tutor, teaching Java to students at a coding bootcamp, and mentoring younger students in my school’s computer science community. I have also taught students in person through official tutoring organizations and online through platforms that focus on academic support. Many of my students come to me feeling unsure about their abilities, and I enjoy helping them build confidence by breaking down complex concepts into simple, intuitive steps. Whether I am explaining recursion in Java or helping a student understand Newton’s laws, I focus on developing deep understanding rather than memorization.

When I work with a student, I begin by identifying strengths, gaps in knowledge, and preferred learning styles. From there, I find practice problems, walk through examples, and model the type of thinking needed for exams like the AP tests and the SAT. I also emphasize study strategies, organization, and long-term retention. Students have described my sessions as supportive, engaging, and easy to follow, and I aim to make every session productive and encouraging. My goal is to help students master the material and feel confident in their abilities, whether they are preparing for a test, catching up in class, or exploring computer science for the first time.
