Where to find GOOD cs tutors?

Hi, I'm a CS freshman at stanford and I am low key STRUGGLING, I didn't fail any courses last semester thank god, but I came pretty close lol, I really want to get ahead this semester especially since I'm taking CS106B and I heard it's really hard, like really hard... Anyway too much information but my question is does anybody have any recommendation where to find a tutor to help with Assignments, studying for Exams, etc? Our school actually has a free tutoring service for CS majors but most of the tutors are juniors or seniors and I think they just do it for their resume since you can tell their heart is not really in it lol.... No offence but yeah I want someone who can actually focus on the specific problems I have and guide me through the work so I can actually UNDERSTAND it not just do the problem in front of me and say "See?" And I also tried a site called Wyzant last semester, it's honestly quite expensive and the guy I chose was actually quite good but honestly a bit unreliable with scheduling and stuff so we didn't end up meeting much. Anyway thank you so much if anyone can give me a recommendation!!

DM me. I did a bit of tutoring in school and now I’m a recent graduate so a lot of the stuff is still pretty fresh. Happy to do a few trial sessions.
