"Great teacher! I learned more than I ever could have studying on my own."

Review by Adrian

"I have been working with Mary Anne on my computer programming skills for the last three months, and I have had a wonderful experience with her thus far. S

he has helped me with programming in both Matlab and Python, and on a variety of different projects. She is very good at explaining how to use the software, but more importantly, she is very patient when actually troubleshooting my attempts at coding. I make a ton of mistakes while writing, but Mary Anne is always great about helping me correct them without making me feel bad for making so many silly mistakes. She cares a lot about getting her students to succeed, and she definitely has the talent to help even the most trouble-prone of coders. If you are in the market for a programming tutor, you have found the right girl!"

"Very helpful, Viktor knows what he is talking about!
Viktor helped my son with his AP Computer Science. Having never taken CS myself, I was uncertain

what I was looking for in a CS tutor, but my son was very pleased.
Viktor showed himself more than qualified to help my son with the material, and we look forward to many more sessions."

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!

Bill's tutoring made a big difference in my child's math grades. He simplifies math concepts and reinforces good study techniques

Meg December 8, 2017

I thought piano was going to be impossible to learn for me because I have bad hand-eye coordination. Somehow Bill is able to motivate me to work with me despite my slowness until I am able to start advancing on my own.

I have been teaching professionally for 22 years. I have a specific style of teaching computer programming--it's whatever method works best for your learning style!! Besides learning computer programming, I will teach you the tools you need to make sure you have all the tools you need to be the programmer you would like to be! Today's computer programmers are expected to know the importance of usability for your audience, search engine optimization and how to create graphics and more. You will learn why things and what are your best reference tools to turn to if you ever need them! I make it fun and accessible to learn--as it should be. Humor is a great enabler to unlock your greatest computer programming. Anyone can teach and anyone can learn, but when you connect with your teacher who shares your goals and objectives it is a whole new level of what you can do.

Zack did a great job and adapted the lesson just right to match my style and needs

Jenn N December 24, 2017

Zack has really taught me a lot as far as basic html, how to create easy email templates and basic coding skills for microsites. His skillset knows no bounds. Has vast experience to draw from, has the patience of a saint, has been teaching for a really long time. But private lessons are where its at. That way you can learn exactly what you want, and not syphon through the stuff you really don't need to help your career, along.

Zack is a great teacher. He went above and beyond during my lesson and provided valuable resources, tools, and advice. I would highly recommend his services.
