Christopher
Algebra Tutor • +7 Subjects
I am a current student at Rutgers University on track to major in Electrical Engineering. I tutor a wide range of math from elementary level up to high school and college. This range includes algebra, trigonometry, pre-calc and calculus. I have had many experiences through my high school and outside work at kumon learning centers in tutoring. I love helping students not only learn the material themselves, but being able to know it well enough that they can teach it themselves, achieving my goal of getting students to work autonomously without required help. The many interests I have outside of the classroom includes playing basketball, running, video games, and computer programming.

Amy
College English Tutor • +13 Subjects
I have a B.A. in French and a diploma in Business French from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Paris. I also speak Greek, Italian, and Spanish.I have worked as a private tutor in the area of foreign languages, essay writing, and a variety of other subjects for more than a decade. In that time, I have witnessed the difficulties many students have when learning something that seems unfamiliar, uninteresting, or just makes no sense. Seeing this, I believe it is my responsibility to be a positive influence by ensuring that all my students do well and understand the material. For example, with French, I always give them a brief English grammar lesson beforehand which helps tremendously boost their confidence level as the foreign gradually becomes familiar.I am truly excited about working with students and encouraging them to excel. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing a student conquer his/her fears and expressing him/herself in a way he/she never thought possible. I work with each student’s specific needs in a patient yet firm manner. I also exhibit determination, empathy, and humor to make learning an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Most importantly, I am personable and understanding and believe that brings me closer to helping my students.In my free time, I love cooking Mediterranean/Greek cuisine and would love to open a restaurant one day. I also write poetry, short stories, etc. and am currently working on my first novel. Lastly, I adore knitting and crocheting cute, fashionable clothes and accessories for girls.
Gabrielle
AP Biology Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am recent graduate of Binghamton University, with a Bachelor of Sciences in Biology. I am deeply committed to the value of education, and believe that learning is a gift and an opportunity for growth that should be available to everyone. For this reason, I am passionate about tutoring and helping students, so that everyone is able to not only do well in school, but to fall in love with learning in the process. Anyone can enrich themselves through learning. This is the foundation of my teaching philosophy: in addition to emphasizing results and academic achievement, I believe it is integral to find an individual approach to each student and to focus first and foremost on teaching students to study in a way that is effective and engaging. I tutor elementary, middle, and high school students in all subjects. In my free time, I like to go running, practice dance, learn new languages, and play ping-pong.

Afterwards, I allow students time to practice on their own. I encourage you to contact me to schedule so togetherwe can start achieving your goals
Anna
ACT Writing Tutor • +27 Subjects
I honestly love tutoring. While working in finance and publishing over the past decade, I have independently tutored students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students. Breaking down seemingly complex subjects is one of my favorite pastimes--it's part of the reason I also enjoy writing about arcane financial topics like quanto spreads on sovereign CDS. I've also developed a newfound respect for the challenges students face when undergoing years of testing after developing my own study plan to pass the first two CFA exams (I'm taking the third exam in June). This experience has shaped how I work with students to tackle test-taking anxiety and master difficult material quickly.I have both a BA and MA in English from New York University.

Algebra Tutor • +15 Subjects
Hello! My name is Catherine Raj and I am a second-year medical student at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience in 2022. Since 2015, I have tutored children from ages 3-16 in areas of math and reading, as well as their school curriculum. Apart from tutoring here, I have worked for the Kumon Learning Center as a teaching instructor for 5 years. While I am certified to tutor a broad range of subjects, I have years of experience with tutoring young children in math and reading, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, phonics, reading comprehension, and much more. I connect with elementary and middle school students very well, as I believe in understanding children in order to give them a fulfilling tutoring experience. I also very much enjoy tutoring pre-algebra and algebra as those are my favorite math subjects, as well as my best! My students and I have always had a deeper level of understanding beyond the books and I pride my style of teaching on that aspect.

Creative Writing Tutor • +18 Subjects
I love English, and good writing. Since I like working one-or-one or with a small group, tutoring is a great way for me to help young people communicate more effectively in writing. As a social scientist, I also like to talking about statistics and social science. I like to teach by example and ask lots of questions so students can discover answers themselves. When not working, I like to watch movies, exercise, and write science fiction.

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.
