Isaiah B.

Private tutor in Walla Walla, WA

Education

Bachelor in Computer Science from Whitman College, where I was Computer Science Department Liaison and a Class Mentor

Experience

Hello I'm Isaiah and I recently graduated with a degree in Computer Science and picked up a love for Philosophy and Community Building along the way! While a student I was a Class Mentor for the Introduction to Computer Science course and would help students to understand fundamental data structures like linked lists, arrays, and hash tables and basic algorithms. I would also help students develop necessary skills for coding such as using the command line, setting up your environment, and debugging their programs. I like to know about those I tutor: your long-term goals, what skills you want to develop, and where you are seeking help the most. It could be a specific task, getting more information and guidance on a problem and its solvability, or maybe its a specific data structure or algorithm. In college I especially loved my classes in Algorithms and Design, Artificial Intelligence, and Natural Language Processing (or NLP, a sub-field of AI). I'm a strong believer in a project-based learning approach. A project is a great way of learning a concept or developing a skill, while also being something interesting that you can add to a github repository or resume. The projects I've had the most fun with and followed through on were always the ones I was curious and passionate about like the Sudoku Solver, making an Othello AI (aka Reversi), and a Q&A chatbot with a custom knowledge base! I'm especially confident in tutoring fundamental Programming Concepts, Data Structures, Algorithms, as well as working with Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing algorithms, libraries and toolkits. As far as languages, I've primarily coded in Python and C/C++, OCAML, and SML, but I also have a familiarity with HTML/CSS, C# Java, and Javascript.
