But meanwhile, the main reason I paid him he wasn't able to do it. Yet he was counting his time while he should have thought about what he did for the amount of money I paid him. Before the lesson, I pick with him I told him what he needs to do for me. He said he is definitely able to do what I'm asking for. But at the end he didn't do not all of them but also whatever he did was a couple of them were wrong. Never taking any lessons with TAKELESSONS. Waste of my money.

Private Computer Programming Teacher
Self-taught software engineer with experiences in autonomous vehicles, high-frequency trading, and cybersecurity. I am also currently attending a top 10 computer science Masters program at Georgia Tech specializing in machine learning/artificial intelligence to fill in the gaps in my knowledge.
I know firsthand how difficult it is to learn programming whether you are a total newbie, or a budding intermediate, but I have overcame these challenges myself and will guide you to overcome them too. I also have 3 years of tutoring experience, which will surely come in handy!
About Bill
I have always been a self-studier in my entire life. Being able to learn with just books and your brain is a crucial skill to have! However, I know not everyone (and sometimes even myself) have the discipline and motivation to keep going during hard times. This is where a tutor would come in handy.

Private Computer Programming Lessons Near You
Without computer programming, computers would be functionless hunks of metal and wire. Computer programming tells computers what they should do next. These instructions are called code. There are several types of codes (or languages) used for different types of computer programming.
Computer programming can be as simple and basic as telling a calculator to perform simple sums or subtractions. It can be as complex as gathering and analyzing gigantic data sets. Computer programming can be used to automate cars, to send rockets to space, and even to tell your microwave the perfect parameters for popping corn. Studying computer programming gives you the keys to understanding how just about everything in today's world works.
Why Sign Up for Computer Programming Classes?
Computers and software are everywhere you look. The world we know today couldn't function without them. Various programs are used across all industries for data collection, record keeping, data analysis, communication, commerce, transportation, productivity, research science, engineering, and more. Computer programs are no longer limited to personal computers, either; they're found in our appliances, vehicles, and in our pockets.
Needless to say, there's an enormous demand for computer programmers of all kinds. This means ample opportunities for career advancement in a variety of sectors. Whether you're interested in creating algorithms to improve search metrics or marketing, writing programs for use in the finance industry, or taking your skills to the cutting edge of machine learning and artificial intelligence, a solid background in computer programming is essential for success.
The Best Way to Learn Computer Programming and What You'll Study in Lessons
Sure, you can find plenty of free computer programming lessons and tutorials online, but the best way to learn is with a private computer programming teacher. In private lessons, you'll receive your tutor's undivided attention and the kind of personalized instruction that can't be found in online tutorials or in a larger class setting. With immediate feedback, you'll improve quickly, while focusing on the aspects of computer programming that interest you most.
Plus, every private lesson is different. Teachers customize course content keeping in mind the student's interests, goals, existing knowledge, and preferred learning styles. For example, computer programming classes for adults differ from computer programming lessons for kids in terms of teaching methods and content. No matter your age or current skill level, a private computer programming tutor will keep you motivated and interested, while you learn at a pace that's comfortable for you.
Sample Curriculum for Beginner Computer Programming
