Computer science teachers/tudors?
I'm entering my sophomore year in highschool and i'm deciding on majoring in computer science in college, my school doesn't offer any computer classes and I was wondering if there's anyone that is willing to teach some one for free, its fine if your just a student that had taken class or any teachers that would be willing to teach me the basics for free, or if you know anyway I can have a free teacher that gives one on one online teaching/lessons or whatever you wanna call it, thanks

How does your school not teach computer science classes? Not yelling at you, I just find it hard to believe that they do not offer any computer classes. I know computer science, but I wouldn't know where to start as far as teaching goes. Their are good books that basically walk you through computer skills and science. I suggest you start with that. I am good with specific questions, but to teach a broad topic from scratch I really do not have time for it. I work 2 jobs and live with my family.

Why does a school not teach computer science? That is a very easy answer. There are so few qualified teachers out there that schools can't find them. In our school district there are 5 high schools plus one magnet school. Only one teacher has a degree in Computer Science (he retired from industry developing compilers and operating systems for a computer manufacturer and took up teaching for fun for the last 12 years of his working career). People who have degrees in Computer Science can't be lured out of industry and into teaching - after all, they have to take a 75% (or more) cut in pay to go into teaching.
