    About Rodney B.

    Hi I'm Rodney and I've loved programming since after I got out of high school. When was that? A long, long time ago. I offer three unique perspectives: 1.) I use illustrations and stories that teach and show how programming concepts reflect the real world (and so aid in retention and understanding as they get more complex) 2.) I show the practical and pragmatic face of software (and unmask the un-pragmatic stuff) and 3.) I offer a keen understanding of the evolution and journey technology has taken and where it is today. Beyond concepts I share my expertise in Microsoft .NET, C# and JavaScript/HTML/CSS. I adapt my approach to both the individual and age. As with my own daughter, I teach without condescension; treating all like adults (so to speak). I look forward to working with you to show how exciting and fun (and powerful) programming is. Whether making a Grocery List App for your family or spamming your best friend with 1000 emails or preparing for your first job: It's the "joy of creation"!
