I tutor students from middle school through college, beginner through advanced. My expertise includes Java, Python, Scratch, Snap!, and C/C++. As a certified teacher in Virginia, I taught computer science to hundreds of students, covering introductory courses, AP® Computer Science A, AP® Computer Science Principles, and data structures.

With years of experience grading AP® exams, I understand what it takes to earn a five, and I have access to valuable AP® materials. I've worked with various AP® curricula, including CodeHS, code.org, CSAwesome, CMU Academy, BJC, and CS50x. My knowledge of data structures encompasses recursion, Big O notation, sorting algorithms, resizing arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, sets, maps, and graphs.

I graduated summa cum laude with a B.S. in Mathematics and a minor in Computer Science, followed by an M.S. in Education. I was particularly drawn to computer science because it allows me to use logic and problem-solving skills in a creative setting.

When working with students, I encourage questions and provide a supportive environment where they can explore solutions. Whether you need help with coursework or are interested in learning something new, I’m here to assist you!

Approved Subjects

Computer Science

Computer Science

As a teacher, I have extensive knowledge and experience with AP® Computer Science A and AP® Computer Science Principles, as well as data structures. As a tutor, I have worked with students learning Python and Java from middle-school to college-age with all levels of coding experience, including beginners who have never coded before.
Data Structures

Data Structures

I earned a minor in Computer Science and taught all levels of Computer Science to high school students. The courses included introductory courses, AP courses, data structures, and a capstone course. The data structures course used Java and included recursion, efficiency of algorithms (Big O), resizing arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, maps, sets, hashing, and graphs.
Geometry

Geometry

I taught Geometry in Virginia for 5 years to students in 7th grade through 10th grade and served as the Geometry team lead. I use a variety of approaches and have lots of resources. I know where students typically struggle and patiently support them while they gain confidence.
Java

Java

As a teacher, I taught hundreds of students in AP® Computer Science A, AP® Computer Science Principles, and data structures and worked as an AP exam grader for years. AP is my speciality, but I have experience tutoring students of all ages, from middle-school to college-age, and at all levels, including advanced students and absolute beginners who have never coded before.
Python

Python

As a teacher, I taught beginner and advanced Computer Science classes to hundreds of students with varying levels of experience, including students with no coding experience at all. As a tutor, I have helped students from middle school to college learn to program using Python.

Best tutor for AP Computer Science A!

Eva is an expert in teaching Java to my 10th grader son, Ethan. She is also detailed-oriented, patient and kind. She explains concepts in a clear way that my son can understand. She also has great communication with me as the parent. Thumbs up!

Amazing tutor!

Eva is an amazing tutor for AP Comp Sci! My daughter worked with her regularly for the school year. Eva is incredibly knowledgeable, super patient, dedicated, and supportive. My daughter felt very prepared for the AP exam and said she feels very lucky to have found Eva to work with. Highly recommend her!

Exceptional CS (Python) tutor!

Eva has been working with our middle school aged son for the past 2 years - prior to starting with Eva he had very limited coding knowledge, so he was basically starting from the beginning. Eva is very methodical, breaking down complex coding concepts into manageable, easy-to-understand steps that build upon each other. This systematic approach really built his confidence. Because the lessons were interesting and engaging, he was always excited to join and motivated to learn more. They always seemed to have fun during the lessons, and Eva's structured teaching approach brought the material to life with creative examples and interactive exercises. Our son is now able to code complex programs and has a good understanding of Python concepts and structure. We highly recommend Eva to any parent looking for an effective and enjoyable computer science learning experience for their child!

Thank you Eva!!

We’ve been incredibly pleased with Eva’s tutoring sessions for my son. She brings not only deep subject knowledge but also a patient and engaging teaching style that has made a big difference in my son’s understanding and enthusiasm for the subject. Each session is well-structured and tailored to my son’s pace and learning needs, whether he’s working on foundational programming concepts or more advanced topics related to his robotics competitions. She is always prompt, prepared, and responsive to any questions we have outside of the sessions. I would highly recommend Eva to any parent looking to support their child in computer science.

Exceptional Tutor For High School CS

Eva is a very knowledgeable tutor. She has helped my daughter in high school with learning CS fundamentals as well as worked patiently with her on class projects involving Python and other languages and frameworks. Thanks to Eva’s friendly style of teaching, my daughter has felt comfortable understanding CS concepts and gets excited about completing her projects. We plan to continue to work with Eva in future years to help my daughter with CS pathway and AP courses.

Excellent AP Computer Science A Teacher

My son prepared AP Computer Science A test with Eva and had a wonderful experience. Eva started lessons with analyzing his weak areas and helped him prepare for the test strategically. For weekly classes, Eva assigned homework and that helped him to prepare for the test in an organized way without getting overwhelmed. When my son took the test last week, he felt he was well prepared for the test. We highly recommend Eva for AP Computer Science A test preparation.
