Garrett T.

24 UNIX lessons

Ted was a huge help in getting me started with programming in unix. He explained the concepts very well and helped me get comfortable with the text editor vim. It was also extremely helpful to be able to meet in person. I have been searching for someone who was willing to meet in person and Ted was the perfect fit. Very well spoken, easy to understand, and had great social skills. I felt as if I were working on homework with a friend, which made me feel comfortable and easier to communicate.

Arianna B.

1 UNIX lesson

Mark helped me learn C and understand UNIX commands. Prior to our lesson, I was so lost and had no idea how to even compile and run a C program and was overwhelmed with starting a project. Mark took the time to help me understand C syntax, how to compile, and run my programs. We also went over good coding standards which was really helpful. After just one lesson I already feel more confident with C and UNIX. Mark is a great tutor!

Brenda G.

1 UNIX lesson

She helped me understand my Unix homework better and taught me more Unix commands with how they work and how to work in the vi editor. She was patient and helpful.
