Linux for beginners through advanced - 30+ years experience
I have worked with Unix/Linux for the past 30 years. I typically work in Red Hat and/or Centos linux operating systems, but most are very similar. I have taught classes in the past regarding this topic and skillset. I will help you grow your understanding of how to navigate and understand the linux operating system. I can also help you learn the daunting linux VI editor, which I am convinced is one of the best editors around. If you have no experience in Linux, that is not a problem. I will get you to a level where you are very comfortable.

About James W.
5.0
(1)
Hello. My name is Jim. I have been working with databases for 30 years as a DBA. Before being a DBA I was a software developer. My focus is relational databases but have also worked with noSQL and document databases as well. I have created many small technology businesses over the years, but mostly for a learning perspective. I have consulted, mentored interns and IT professionals, and taught public classes. Some topics include: Unix System Administration, Oracle Database Administration, and shell scripting. I have taught beginners up through advanced topics. I am easy going and a good communicator. I love noticing the "click" when students suddenly realize they "get it". If you are looking to advance yourself years ahead of other candidates through experienced-based approach, I am the guy that can help you get there. Feel free to view my linked-in profile as a reference. I look forward to working with you.

Experience
Associate Director of Database Technology
Jan, 1993 - PresentBest Buy
I have been involved with learning relational database technology, specifically Oracle, from the ground up. I have been working with Oracle for around 30 years. Over the past 7 years I have picked up other database technologies including: Cassandra and Mongodb. I am also in the process of learning other technologies such as Postgres and Cockroach DB. I have worked with small and large systems. I am a self-learner and love to help others learn as well. For the past 4 years I have been the lead mentor for college interns in my group.
