Certified Tutor
I grew up very poor, and through persistence and hard work overcame many handicaps to acquire first a bachelor's then a master's degree. I am a self-taught computer programmer, and my specialty is web and mobile development with JavaScript. After I learned programming, I wanted to teach and help others with disadvantages succeed just as I did. So I went back to school for a master's in education. I have taught programming to elementary, junior, and high school children as well as to college students and also adult professionals in the work force. I have no elite credentials to share; my students are my successes, and I am dedicated to them. They work at companies such as NASDAQ, Chase, GM, and HP. They all earn more than I do, and that pleases me greatly.

I am interested in intelligence, creativity, philosophy, science, and entrepreneurship. I am of the arcade game generation. I started with Asteroids and Galaga, moved on to Zelda, then Team Fortress, StarCraft, WoW, and now I play TFC 2, but usually just with bots. I like computers of all kinds, and I am equally proficient with MacOS, Windows, and Linux including Debian and Red Hat lineages. I enjoy writing mobile apps, and my coding expertise is in the JavaScript pipeline. I have been writing JavaScript for over 30 years! I read science fiction and fantasy, and I watch the same. I also sometimes write fantasy fiction.
