I am SVP. Software Engineering including Design, UI/UX, Programming, and Servers while making time to teach students as I feel very strongly in the importance of helping people learn. I have been teaching students of all skills, interests and ages for over 20 years and really enjoy helping you achieve your goals and objectives in what you would like to learn.
My primary teaching focus includes teaching computers, design, programming (HTML, HTML5 PHP, CSS, Javascript, Servers, Cloud Computing and more), Typing, QuickBooks, Database Design, Interactive Marketing and other computer skills and Photography for over 20 years.
I am an adaptive teacher whose goals and objectives are to adapt to the best method to help you learn. I have taught classes at UCLA, UCI, UCSB and other schools in computers, marketing, software, servers, emerging security threats and more.
Does that REALLY matter to you? Not so much!
What matters is that I help you achieve your goals and objectives in learning. It's your pace and we will get their together. I offer one-on-one classes, group lessons (small premium handled through TakeLessons.com) and even even corporate training and consulting services.
Want to learn Adobe Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator and how to programming your website, social media, linkedin.com or anything in-between? Just ask me and I'm here to help! I am confident you will enjoy your learning experience with me.
What you will find out from my teaching style is that I listen, I adjust and I am here to help you achieve your learning goals at the pace you want to learn.
The TakeLessons.com makes it very easy for you to learn what you want, when you want and how you want to learn it. If you want to learn online, no problem. If you are local, we can do local classes.
I'm here to unlock your passion, potential and give you the tools to learn what you are interested in. So, ask me your questions and let's get started on helping you unlock your interests and greatest potential. - Zack

Write a ReviewZack did a great job and adapted the lesson just right to match my style and needs
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.
+ Read MoreZack 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.
I honestly did not ever think I would become a web designer. I know that I wanted to maintain my business website, however with the knowledge I learned in taking classes with Zack, I have been able to start a side business and now I am creating my own schedule and expanding my clientele every day. I cannot believe how fun and easy Zack made learning HTML, Website Design and Photoshop to build a website! It's been amazing and I'm really having FUN and for a side project, it's a great living!!
+ Read MoreAs a senior, I wanted to earn some extra income learning a useful skill I could do from home. I hired Zack and he came to my home and taught my computer programming. He showed me the proper way to "code" and now I am able to list my services online as a freelancer to earn extra income from what I learned in my classes with Zack. He is a great resource and makes himself available for questions should I have any.
+ Read MoreI wanted to learn programming for my own website. I do not have a lot of time or patience as a student. However, learning from Zack was by far the best experience I have had. I learned how to program faster than I expected (and it stuck!), I learned how to use Photoshop, Illustrator and the tools I needed to manage my own website. When we finished our classes, I expanded them to include SEO, marketing online and offline and he has helped me grow my skills and my business through the skills of programming
