STEM Tutor Specializing in Math and Computer Science Topics

Sophia M.

I am a dedicated STEM tutor with a strong academic background in computer science and mathematics. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics, graduating with a 4.0 GPA. My coursework included algebra, calculus, discrete mathematics, data structures, programming fundamentals, and introductory artificial intelligence and machine learning concepts. This rigorous academic foundation allows me to tutor math and computer science subjects with both depth and clarity, while adapting explanations to meet each student’s level of understanding.

I have experience tutoring students in one-on-one and small-group settings, including middle school, high school, and college-level students. I have worked with college students on programming assignments, exam preparation, and core math concepts, as well as supporting younger students with foundational math skills and problem-solving strategies. My tutoring approach focuses on identifying gaps in understanding and rebuilding concepts step by step. I emphasize reasoning and comprehension rather than memorization, and I tailor each session to the student’s learning style using guided practice, examples, and interactive problem-solving.

As a tutor, I prioritize patience, clear communication, and confidence-building. I understand that many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they feel overwhelmed or discouraged by the material. My goal is to create a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. By helping students understand not only how to solve problems but why solutions work, I aim to foster long-term academic confidence and independent learning skills.
