Python with Ronald H.

I am a self-taught programmer who managed to get a job at NeXT working for Steve Jobs, then spent 25 years at Apple. I started by writing programming books, became an engineering manager, ran the Developer Publications department, and finally founded the Software University team to teach programming skills across Apple. I've taught Python to thousands of people around the world, from beginners to professional programmers. I focus on task-based learning -- we start with what you want to accomplish, and I build the training around that. Many of my students have said they tried learning to program multiple times, and my class was the first time they succeeded. Experienced programmers, and even programmers who know some Python, find that they get a much more in-depth level of understanding that allows them to solve tough problems in an elegant manner. The rest of the time I love cooking, playing board games, doing a bit of sleight of hand, and watching classic Dr Who.
