I also enjoy Computer Science and have taken many CS courses including: AP CS A (Java), AI (Python), Computer Vision (C++), and Mobile and Web Applications Development. I genuinely enjoy learning about Math and CS, and love to teach it to students.
I have previous tutoring experience from when I was at TJ. I tutored students that were struggling in Math and Computer Science. My main methods included explaining the concepts to the students through a similar problem, and then letting them solve the main problem by themselves. Also, I would focus on concepts, and make sure the students understood the "why" behind the answer, and not just the answer it self. Additionally, I approached these tutoring sessions as a way to build relationships with students. I would encourage them when they did well, and point them in the right direction whenever they struggled. I was able to build real relationships from these tutoring sessions, and I even remain in contact with some of my tutees now!
When I tutored at TJ, I tutored kids from from the age of 14 to 18, and I tutored them for 2 years. It was done in a class setting, where 4-5 different students would come to my table to ask me questions. They would each be stuck on a similar concept, and I would help them all out on the whiteboard.
