Hello all! I graduated summa cum laude, majoring in computer science and mathematics for my bachelors and also have my masters in computer science. I have a lot of experience tutoring various math subjects and age groups from the elementary to even the college level recently as an adjunct instructor. I have a lot of patience with students and help students form a fearless mentality toward their problems. I like to begin by discussing a lesson with a student verbally. Then, we work together through problems and the student can talk out their thought process with me. Questions can be packaged many ways, but I try to help students have a strong mathematical foundation on topics, so they are prepared for these multiple packages. I then test a student's foundation on a topic by asking them questions from these other packages. I also, like to show the relationship between past topics with current lessons to make sure old lessons have not been forgotten.

Generally, students who seek tutoring have a desire to learn and become better. And, that energy is great to be around, and I love being able to contribute to that. Also, I always learn more and strengthen my own knowledge about a topic when I'm helping students. The relationship is always mutualistic. At times, math can seem very abstract, and one of the most popular questions is: "When am I ever going to use this in real life?" I try to bridge this gap and provide practical examples. Additionally, improving one's logic process and mechanics is always helpful for everyday life. I am an extremely motivated individual, and I try to help build the confidence and/or drive in my tutees. Feel free to contact me with any inquiries or to schedule a lesson!

"It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge." -Albert Einstein

Best java tutor...

We rarely see tutors like Edward on this website. His unbeatable knowledge in Java is absolutely impressive. Plus, he is so patient with his students, even with those with zero knowledge. He helped me get a solid foundation in Java. I am so glad I met him. Thank you again, Edward!

Knowledgeable/Patient/Supportive

Edward is very knowledgeable about Java, and he is very patient with those he is tutoring, not only will he help you on things you don't understand, he will make sure to lead you in the process so that you could do it yourself as well.
