Dedicated and Patient Tutor for Computer Programming and Math
I studied Engineering and Computer Science at UCLA, then worked full-time for Citibank as a Programmer and Designer for over 25 years before becoming an independent contractor.
At my job I taught programming classes and mentored new employees. I traveled to several countries to install software and train users, so I have worked with a variety of cultures and personalities.
I am patient and strive to see the world from the viewpoint of the student, and I never talk down to anyone.

Knowledgeable tutor
Mark was instrumental in my finishing this assignment. He has years of experience with C++ and was incredibly thorough. I am struggling with PIC10B and PIC 20A this quarter at UCLA and with his help it is seeming a lot more manageable. Thanks for all the assistance, Mark!

Really excellent tutor and explains things so clearly
Had my first session with Mark, and it really opened up my mind and helped things to click... he’s patient, explains things in detail at my pace, and really cares to make sure I understood everything we went over. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help and to truly learn something that they are struggling with. He’s very clear and gives great examples. Highly recommend.

AMAZING TUTOR! going to have him as my teacher throughout the rest of my CS courses.
Currently taking a data structures class using c++ and was completely lost, was about to drop the course till i found Mark! Not only did he teach me the subject better than my professor, but he followed up with me frequently to make sure I’m doing okay and would ask if i have any questions. He truly cares about his students success. Thanks to his help i was able to raise my grade up to an A. I can now confidently say i know what I’m doing in programming thanks to Mark! Thank you!

Knowledgeable, Great Teacher
Mark was exactly what we’d hoped for in a tutor. He knows his subject matter well and was able to explain it clearly to a student who was encountering it for the first time. Thank you Mark.

Fantastic Tutor - patient and reliable
After just a couple of lessons with Mark, my daughter got a 100 on a quiz in her AP Computer Science class. Mark is very thoughtful about his approach to planning his tutoring sessions and clearly wants my daughter to be the best she can be.

Knowledgeable Tutor
Mark is worth every dime spent. He is very patient with you and also very knowledgeable about the subject he is tutoring. I would highly recommend him for future sessions. He helped me in the areas I was struggling in and guided me threw the lessons allowing me do do the work on my own with assistance when needed. He was exactly what I was looking for.

Expert and nice tutor
Mark was very helpful preparing my son for his AP Java exam. Mark reviewed relevant books and practice tests, and made great recommendations. He helped my son cover the material he missed on the practice exam, and helped him think about the word problems on the test.

Knowledgeable Pic10A Tutor
I had never coded before taking Pic10A at UCLA and I truly would not have gotten through this class if it wasn't for Mark. He has so much experience in this subject and knew the class curriculum very well. He had his own material and practice exams to help me study for the final as well. He was also fast to respond whenever I needed help outside of sessions. Would highly recommend!

Incredibly Intelligent and Caring Tutor (PIC20A - UCLA)
Mark helped me with my PIC20A (Java) course at UCLA. I was amazed by the work he put in to both prior to and during our tutoring sessions, both on explaining lecture material and covering any homework problems I was confused about. Most importantly, I gained more and more confidence in working on my own and understanding how to solve problems. I would recommend Mark to anyone who feels stuck or confused. Trust me, his hourly rate is very much worth the time and help you will receive!
