- Santa Clara , California ( 95054 )
- 20 miles
I am a Stanford MSEE and have tutored High School students at the individual level and taught Community College students in the Bay Area and in Colorado. The best part of teaching for me is to see the experience of the “AHA!†Moment when the student experiences the insight that translates to unforgettable intuition!

- $50 / h
- Stanford , California ( 94305 )
- 10 miles
I'm a senior studying Computer Science at Stanford University. Throughout my academic experience I came to realize that despite a good lecturer or interesting material, some subjects require students to bounce around ideas or reinforce concepts in a safe environment that is conducive to learning. While study groups work best in my opinion, I have been fortunate enough to experience the advantages of a good tutor on the development and understanding of a subject and have also participated as a...
