Liz
MS Simmons College • BA Washington University in St. Louis
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

Christopher
BA Harvard College
1+ Years Tutoring

I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

Frequently Asked Questions

The most in-demand languages depend on your target platform. For iOS apps, you'll want to learn Swift, Apple's modern programming language. For Android development, Java and Kotlin are the primary choices, with Kotlin becoming increasingly popular due to its concise syntax. Many developers also learn cross-platform frameworks like React Native or Flutter, which allow you to build apps for both iOS and Android using a single codebase. A tutor can help you choose the right language based on your goals and then guide you through the fundamentals before moving to framework-specific development.

Building foundational skills in a programming language usually takes 2-3 months of consistent practice. However, becoming proficient enough to build functional apps typically requires 6-12 months of dedicated learning, depending on your starting point and how much time you dedicate to practice. The journey accelerates with personalized instruction, since a tutor can identify gaps in your understanding immediately and provide targeted explanations rather than having you struggle through confusing concepts alone. Advanced skills like app architecture, API integration, and performance optimization develop over additional months of real-world project experience.

In a classroom setting, instruction moves at an average pace that may leave some students behind on complex topics like asynchronous programming or API design patterns. Personalized tutoring lets you focus on exactly what you need—whether that's spending extra time on concepts that challenge you or accelerating through material you grasp quickly. A tutor can also provide real-time feedback on your code, explain why your app isn't working as expected, and show you professional best practices specific to your project. This targeted approach typically helps students build confidence faster and start creating functional apps sooner.

The best tutors combine current industry experience with the ability to explain complex concepts clearly. Look for someone who has shipped real apps and can discuss real-world challenges like debugging, testing, and managing app performance. They should be comfortable with the specific language or framework you're learning and able to review your actual code, not just teach theory. A great tutor also adapts to your learning style—whether you learn best by building projects, working through exercises, or asking lots of questions—and can help you understand not just how to write code, but why certain approaches are better than others.

New developers often struggle with asynchronous programming and understanding how mobile apps handle background tasks differently than desktop applications. Debugging can also be frustrating since errors sometimes occur only on specific devices or OS versions. Many beginners underestimate the importance of user interface design and usability testing, focusing too heavily on code and not enough on how users actually interact with their app. Common issues like managing app state, handling device permissions, and optimizing performance for older devices can also be confusing without guidance. A tutor can help you avoid these pitfalls by teaching best practices upfront and providing hands-on support when you encounter these challenges.

Yes, absolutely. While understanding fundamental programming concepts like variables, loops, and functions does help, many people successfully transition into mobile development from non-technical backgrounds or with minimal coding experience. The key is starting with foundational programming skills first—learning basic syntax and logic in a beginner-friendly language—before diving into mobile-specific frameworks. Personalized tutoring is especially valuable here, since a tutor can move at your pace, ensure you truly understand each building block before moving forward, and use examples relevant to app development to keep concepts concrete and motivating.

Start with simple projects that reinforce fundamental concepts: a to-do list app, a calculator, or a weather app that fetches data from an API. These teach you core skills like managing state, handling user input, and making network requests. As you progress, tackle more complex projects like a social media feed, a real-time chat app, or a game—these introduce challenges like managing complex data, authentication, and performance optimization. The best learning path combines guided projects with personal projects you're excited about. A tutor can suggest appropriate project ideas based on your current skill level, guide you through the trickier parts, and help you understand how to structure your code for a real-world application.
