Garrett Drake, Computer Science Tutor

What's up, I'm Garrett! I offer one-on-one tutoring sessions for computer science students.

My tutoring style is oriented around personalized instruction and providing resources for your long-term success. I'll teach you self-sufficient approaches to studying, solving problems, and researching new subjects.

I offer remote tutoring sessions in addition to in-person sessions on campus or in libraries.

My schedule is flexible but subject to change. I'll notify you ahead of time if I have scheduling conflicts.

My rate is currently $25 per hour. I accept payment through Venmo, PayPal, checks, and cash.

🐤 About me

I've earned an Associate of Science in Computer Science from Washtenaw Community College. I'm now a senior at EMU pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Applied Computer Science.

In my free time, you'll find me developing Rust applications, bouldering at Planet Rock, eating Costco pizza, and listening to LCD Soundsystem with the lights off.
