About TC

Hi, I'm TC. I’m a former software engineer at Amazon and Morgan Stanley with a degree in Mathematics from UBC. I’ve helped students succeed in both computer science and math—whether they're trying to pass a course, prepare for interviews, or deepen their understanding for long-term growth. I bring a calm, patient teaching style and always adapt to the student’s pace. My goal is to make challenging topics feel manageable and logical, even if you’ve been struggling. I’ve worked with learners of all levels—from high school students to university graduates—and always focus on clear explanations, guided problem-solving, and confidence-building. With my background in both industry and academics, I know what matters in real-world development and what professors expect in exams. If you're looking for someone professional, approachable, and committed to your progress, I’m here to help.

About the lesson

As a tutor, I adapt to your goals—whether you’re aiming to pass a course and graduate, or you want deep understanding to build a strong foundation for your future career.

A typical lesson starts by identifying what you’re struggling with, then walking through the concepts step by step. I focus on clarity, problem breakdown, and real examples. For coding topics, I use live coding and whiteboarding to build intuition and confidence.

I hold a math degree from UBC and previously worked as a backend software engineer at Amazon and Morgan Stanley. My strengths include Java, data structures, algorithms, object-oriented programming, backend systems, and university-level math (like calculus, linear algebra, and discrete math).

️ I don’t tutor frontend university courses (e.g., React, UI frameworks).

My lessons are for:

- High school students in math or introductory programming

- University CS students (except frontend courses)

- Students who need help passing assignments and exams

- Motivated learners preparing for job interviews or tech careers

Whether you just want to get through a class or you're preparing for something bigger, I’ll meet you where you are and help you get there.
