Rose H.
Rose is currently pursuing a Master’s in Computer Science at Harvard University. During her undergraduate years at Harvard College, she studied Computer Science (CS) and Math. At school, she is heavily involved in Harvard’s Women in CS mentorships program as well as the CS Peer Concentration Advisors team. She is currently conducting thesis research in the voting algorithms space and has previously conducted research in reinforcement learning.
Rose has significant teaching and tutoring experience. As an undergraduate, she served as a Teaching Fellow for two of Harvard’s largest undergraduate CS classes—CS 124 (Data Structures and Algorithms) and CS 61 (Systems Programming)—and was awarded a Certificate of Distinction for her teaching. This fall (2021), she is a Course Assistant for a 200-student math class covering vector calculus and linear algebra and peer-tutors for a variety of CS and math classes as part of Harvard’s Academic Resource Center. In the past, Rose has also worked as a part-time math instructor at Mathnasium, where she taught and tutored K-12 students (both 1:1 and in group settings) in subjects ranging from pre-algebra to calculus. Because of the pandemic, Rose has extensive experience teaching both in-person and remotely. With her strong technical background, Rose looks forward to working with students across all levels of math and CS.
Rose strongly believes that each student has the potential to succeed and will work with each student to set goals and create detailed roadmaps to achieve them. Through her teaching, Rose also strives to help students build confidence in their abilities and prioritizes a student-centered approach that is highly adaptive to individual learning needs and styles. Rose’s students often describe her teaching style as passionate, patient, and creative. She meets students where they are and is excited to play a long-term role in each student’s growth and improvement.
