I’m Jose, a bilingual tutor with degrees in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics, and over 15 years of experience helping students succeed in math, coding, test prep, and Spanish.
I specialize in making complex topics—like Java, statistics, precalculus, AP Calculus, and Spanish—simple and approachable. My teaching style is patient, example‑driven, and tailored to each student’s learning style.
In addition to subject tutoring, I help students prepare for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, building the academic confidence needed for success. Many of my students have raised their test scores and strengthened their problem‑solving skills through clear, structured practice.
I spent my early years in South America before moving to the U.S., which shaped my bilingual fluency and cultural perspective. I’ve helped learners of all levels build fluency and confidence in Spanish, whether for school, travel, or professional growth.
Whether you're preparing for a test, tackling a tough assignment, or just want to improve your skills, I’m here to help. Let’s make learning clear, effective, and even enjoyable.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I’ve been tutoring math since 2011, including a lot of Algebra 1, and I have a degree in Applied Math and Computer Science. Algebra 1 is the foundation for every math class after it, so I want you to actually understand why the steps work, not just memorize them for the next quiz. We’ll work through equations, inequalities, graphing, systems, and word problems at your pace, using real-world examples so it feels less abstract. If something doesn’t click, I’ll explain it a different way, because no question is a dumb question with me.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I’ve been tutoring math since 2011, and Algebra 2 is one of the classes I help with the most. It’s usually where students start thinking they’re “just bad at math,” but they’re not, and there’s almost always a gap from Algebra 1 that never got filled. I find that gap first, fix it, and then the rest of Algebra 2, like logs, polynomials, functions, and complex numbers, starts making sense. I’ll look over your notes or homework before we meet and keep explaining it different ways until it clicks.
Calculus

Calculus

I hold a Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, and have over 10 years of tutoring experience—including work at a community college and private sessions. I’m trained in multiple learning styles to meet each student’s unique needs. My students consistently report increased confidence and improved grades after working with me.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

I have a degree in Applied Math and Computer Science and have been tutoring since 2011, including intro programming courses. I help beginners understand the core ideas behind any language, like variables, conditionals, loops, functions, and debugging, with Java as my strongest language. We’ll work through your actual assignments, and I’ll explain the logic behind the code so you can solve the next problem on your own.
Differential Equations

Differential Equations

I hold a Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, and have over 10 years of tutoring experience—including work at a community college and private sessions. I’m trained in multiple learning styles to meet each student’s unique needs. My students consistently report increased confidence and improved grades after working with me.
Java

Java

I have a degree in Applied Math and Computer Science and have been tutoring since 2011, including Java from total beginner level up through OOP and data structures. Java can feel confusing at first, so I’m patient and use plenty of examples to make classes, objects, and error messages make sense. We’ll work through your actual assignments, and I’ll explain the “why” behind the code so you can write it yourself next time, not just get this one working.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I’ve been tutoring math since 2011, and Prealgebra is where I love helping students build a strong base before Algebra 1. We’ll work on fractions, decimals, ratios, percents, negative numbers, and simple equations until they feel easy instead of stressful. I break everything into small steps and use real-world examples, and if something doesn’t click, I’ll explain it a different way. My goal is for you to stop thinking you’re bad at math and start trusting yourself.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I’ve been tutoring math since 2011, including a lot of Precalculus and AP Precalculus, and I have a degree in Applied Math and Computer Science. Precalc covers so many topics, from functions and logs to trig and the unit circle, that it’s easy to feel like you’re starting over every unit. I connect each new topic back to what you already know and write everything out step by step, so it builds instead of piling up. My goal is for you to walk into calculus feeling ready, not scared.
Spanish

Spanish

I’m a bilingual tutor with over 10 years of experience helping students master Spanish, math, and computer science. I tailor each session to the student’s learning style—whether they’re beginners or advanced learners. My approach emphasizes clarity, confidence, and real-world application. Students consistently report improved grades and greater comfort with the language.
Statistics

Statistics

I hold a Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, and have over 10 years of tutoring experience—including work at a community college and private sessions. I’m trained in multiple learning styles to meet each student’s unique needs. My students consistently report increased confidence and improved grades after working with me.

Best Tutor i’ve had by far

Jose is by far the best tutor i’ve had yet. He is very understandable, patient and knowledgeable. He goes through every step very thoroughly and makes sure you understand it by using real world examples to help. I would recommend him to anyone. 10/10 Tutor!

Andrew, 12 lessons with Jose Alberto

1st lesson so far, and Jose is GREAT

Very patience, he was the gift of teaching! So grateful, thank you so much! I 100% recommend, very satisfied!

Evelyn, 2 lessons with Jose Alberto

Highly Recommend

Jose has done a great job working at my son’s pace and making sure he truly understands the material before moving on. After just seven lessons, including helping my son prepare for a retake quiz and a test, his grade improved from an F to an A. We are grateful for Jose’s help and highly recommend him!

Heidi, 26 lessons with Jose Alberto

Excellent tutor. Glad I found him.

Mr Alberto tutored my daughter in her AP Calculus homework. She struggled with a new chapter so she had tutoring for it elsewhere but still didn't get it. She decided to try here and I'm so glad I found him. His style of asking her questions, while initially she didn't like, led her to figuring out the solutions. And was able to finish the rest on her own. Huge relief. She'll definitely be back if needed.

Abi, 3 lessons with Jose Alberto

Best tutor ever!!

We’ve only had our second prealgebra class with Professor Jose, and my son (11-year-old, middle schooler),is already very excited and looking forward to the next session. The classes are dynamic and tailored to my son’s level based on the initial assessment Professor Jose gave him. What we love most is that he goes beyond simply teaching the material—he knows how to guide children step by step and spark their curiosity, making them genuinely interested in learning more. Every exercise feels like a new challenge that encourages my son to think, reason, and understand the “why” behind the answer. We really appreciate that the lessons are not based on repetition or memorization, but on questioning, reasoning, and learning how to solve problems in an organized and correct way. Professor Jose is the best math teacher we could have found. He is an excellent person, extremely patient with my 11 yo son, very organized, attentive, and truly knows how to work with children. We couldn’t be happier with our experience so far!

Edna, 7 lessons with Jose Alberto

Patient and understanding tutor

Jose Alberto did a fantastic Job on helping me understand statistics. He was able to help me understand it in a different way that makes sense for my style of learning. If I could’ve had him teach my class instead of the professor I would. But overall very patient and is very flexible and will make sure you understand. Very smart as well.

Lance, 6 lessons with Jose Alberto

Excellent Tutor

Jose is new to tutoring me, and he’s already made a huge difference. He’s knowledgeable and patient, and helps me feel confident with questions. I am a Senior in college and online classes can be tough, so I value any help I can get. I highly recommend booking him as your tutor. Thank you, Jose.

Katelyn, 4 lessons with Jose Alberto

Knowledgeable and patient titor

Jose Alberto was very helpful to my son with AP pre-calculus We meet online and in person which is my son preferred better. Jose was very flexible with time and location. My son understands much better his school work now and we will continue to work with Jose . Thank you

Tatiana , 4 lessons with Jose Alberto

Very Patient and Knowledgable

Jose helped me on a pipeline that needed a few scripts added and I’m not too familiar with HTML but Jose did a great job at helping me with the code that included HTML. I had messaged many tutors to see who would be able to help me with this project and many said they couldn’t but Jose was kind enough to try and he did great at helping me. I highly recommend him! You wont regret it.

Janet, 3 lessons with Jose Alberto

Knowledgeable and very patient.

I felt very comfortable with him. He allowed me to take my time. In fact, so much so that I immediately booked another appointment with him. His patience and his pacing of the steps helped me.
