I have tutored a lot of my friends and other students from my university , I help them out with their assignments.I always walk them through the best solution in a short period of time.Most of the students i have tutored come back for their next assignments because they have received good grades on previous ones, which encourages me to help them even more.
I feel confident the most with data structures in the C language .Also, algorithms is on of my favorites, in addition to that i can help with java, html ,JavaScript, JavaFX, XML.
Moreover, I have a very good experience in math such as Calculus, advanced functions , business mathematics.Also, I love physics and i enjoy teaching it as well , i always got high grades in this course (A+ on grade 12).
