Computer science combines abstract theory with technical precision, which can be exciting but intimidating. Our expert tutors break down difficult ideas into simple, understandable steps and teach students how to reason through code, debug effectively, and build real programming confidence.
Serving students across the East Bay — from Berkeley High, Albany High, and Piedmont High to UC Berkeley and community colleges.
Meet Our Berkeley Tutors
Students often understand concepts in class but struggle to translate them into working code—or get lost debugging problems they can't diagnose. The gap between theory and practice is real.
We teach students to reason through code, identify errors, and understand why their programs behave the way they do. We build both conceptual understanding and practical fluency.
Our CS tutors are experienced programmers, engineers, and computer scientists—carefully vetted and trained to explain technical material clearly and patiently.
We don't just help students finish assignments—we teach them to solve problems on their own. The goal is to develop the logical mindset of a true computer scientist.
Every level — from middle school through advanced college courses.
We've used High Performance Tutoring for two subjects, Calc and Chem, and have been very happy. The most important thing was for our son to feel confident, and that's exactly what happened. He came home saying, 'Now I get it.' Highly recommend.
This group is just excellent! When my daughter fell behind in Chemistry, they helped her get back up to speed and get the highest score across all classes on the final exam. They hire only the best tutors and customize their work to your student. I'd use them again in a New York minute!
This tutoring service has been life changing for our family. When we started, our son was failing chemistry. He got an 89% on his final — seriously an amazing turnaround. It's been great watching him gain confidence as he now understands the subjects instead of having his classwork wash over him.
High Performance Tutoring was the best thing we've discovered in recent years. Our son got the support he needed for AP Physics and Calculus, and it gave him the confidence to pursue engineering in college.
Larson was very good with Adam. It was to prepare him for his first chemistry test, and he ended up with a 94% — one of the highest grades in the class, where the average was a C-. Will definitely be meeting with him again.
Isaac received a 27 out of 30 on his last Chemistry exam. He hadn't passed a single test all year until he started tutoring sessions with Payton. Thank you!
We've used High Performance for two years. Victor helped my son with Chemistry — his grade went from a D to a B+, and he ended up liking the class. They've also tutored him in Algebra and for the ACT. They genuinely enjoy working with the kids, and the kids enjoy working with them!
My daughter needed an AP Chemistry tutor, and they paired her with a Chemical Engineering major. She came away from her session feeling like she understood much better than before, and definitely feels more confident about chemistry!
High Performance Tutoring blends deep knowledge, genuine compassion, and serious professionalism. My son made HUGE improvements in his honors-level chemistry and math this year. More importantly, he's built more confidence academically, because they helped him see that his hard work can pay off.
We've been very impressed with the methodical, detailed tutoring by Ingo. He's been working with our son on his SAT and ACT prep. Extremely pleased so far!
My son goes into tutoring so defeated from school, thinking it won't help him. But as soon as his sessions end, he has this sign of relief and can't wait to see Eugene again next time.
My tutor, Ingo, was incredibly helpful in guiding me toward a higher Quantitative GRE score. He was patient and thorough, and I learned more than just how to take the test — I learned fundamental math skills I'd let lapse. I'm really grateful for his help!
