About Amy
Hi, I’m Amy! I’m pursuing a Bachelor's in Computer Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), where I also conduct research in computer science education. My research explores how students learn abstract CS concepts, which gives me unique insight into effective teaching strategies. I have 5+ years of experience teaching students ranging from elementary school to college. Currently, I’m a Senior Computer Science Instructor at Juni Learning, teaching Python, Java, Scratch, and USACO competitive programming. I design personalized lessons and assignments tailored to each student’s learning style, helping them build confidence, develop problem-solving skills, and achieve their goals. At UIUC, I’m a Course Assistant for both Discrete Structures and Algorithms, supporting undergraduates by clarifying challenging concepts, holding office hours, and guiding students through problem-solving techniques. This role lets me help students build strong foundations and advanced skills while fostering curiosity and a love for exploring new ideas.
