About Kristy
I hold a PhD in Computer Science (CS) and an MS in Mathematics. I have over 15 years of experience teaching computer science, web development, and mathematics at the university level, and I have received two awards for Outstanding Teaching Assistant in Computer Science. For over 8 years, I have operated a highly successful private online tutoring practice, logging thousands of hours helping students achieve their goals in programming and math.
I specialize in helping college and high school students succeed in introductory and intermediate computer programming and web development courses, especially when they are stuck on assignments or need step-by-step guidance. I have also worked with middle school students and adult learners, assisting with coursework or teaching programming lessons independently.
I regularly work with the following: intro and intermediate Java, intro Python, web programming (HTML, CSS, JavaScript), introductory data structures in Java, discrete math, AP Computer Science, and beginners learning coding or web design from scratch.
If you’re stuck on a programming assignment, preparing for an exam, or learning coding for the first time, I’d be happy to work with you. Send me a request today and we’ll get started.

I have taught or assisted with multiple computer programming courses at universities that focus on Java. As a tutor, I specialize in helping college and high school students succeed in introductory and intermediate computer programming and Java courses, including AP Computer Science (CS). In addition, I teach private lessons in Java based on my own curriculum to a variety of students, ranging from middle school to adult professionals.
My lessons are fully online, highly practical, and focused on results. I am a native English speaker and I am skilled at guiding students through programming assignments, projects, and coding exercises; debugging and fixing code; improving code style and organization; presenting detailed step-by-step examples and explanations; and preparing for exams by reinforcing key concepts.
I regularly teach and support the following concepts: Java fundamentals (variables, operators, conditionals, loops, methods, arrays, strings), intermediate topics (file reading/writing, exception handling, recursion), object-oriented programming (objects, classes, inheritance), Java GUI programming (Java Swing and JavaFX), and introductory data structures in Java (array lists, linked lists, stacks, queues, binary search trees, basic sorting and searching). I am also familiar with coding environments such as Eclipse, CodeHS, and zybooks.
To make our sessions as effective as possible, I ask students to share assignment details and goals via the messaging dashboard in advance so I can come prepared and we can make the most of our time together.
