Introduction: Hi! I am a private tutor specializing in math and computer science and have been tutoring professionally since 2012. I worked as a full-stack software developer for 3 years using Java, C#, C++, VB.net, and SQL. I also have 4 years experience teaching at a charter school: 2 years computer science and 2 years math. I believe everyone's learning styles are different, and I look forward to the challenge and reward of helping you or your students in their quest for learning. I can't wait to hear from you!

Elise has been an amazing tutor to me for two years now! We've worked on many projects together, utilizing languages such as node.js, python, javascript, and SQL. She is patient with me and is excellent in discussing things to consider while we move forward with a project, as well as with estimating the time needed to complete a project. She takes the time to explain the math behind what we are doing, and does so in a very thoughtful way. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a math and/or computer science tutor!

Elise is AMAZING! I am in a very competitive graduate level program. Elise helped me with data analytic concepts and application such as Numpy and Pandas packages. I had very little background in prior to working with Elise. She was excellent in explaining the following coding concepts in (Python, C, Java, command line in Linux, understanding hexadecimal and binary number etc). I have worked with Elise for over a year. She really takes time to make sure students understand concepts and how to apply them. I will continue to work with Elise. You couldn't ask for a better tutor. She is friendly, punctual, smart and has an exceptional ability to teach many complex topics.
