Approved Subjects

C#

C#

I have worked on a variety of proprietary projects in C#, including Alexa Skill backends, vocal interfaces for existing applications, and leading/teaching C# workshops for my local community.
Computer Gaming

Computer Gaming

For the 10 or so years that I have been writing software, my passion has been helping others to understand the fascinating world of programming Software Development. In the world of gaming I have experience with the Unity, Gamemaker, and Godot engines, as well as experience using HTML5 Canvas and similar methods to create and design games more manually.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

For the 10 or so years that I have been writing software, my passion has been helping others to understand the fascinating world of programming Software Development. I have experience with every popular coding framework, and many of the less popular ones as well. My clients range from college students to startup cofounders to project managers at fortune 50 companies to software engineers who just need a programming partner. Whatever your programming needs, I am happy to help.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I have a degree in Computer Science (Software Engineering focus) from Covenant College. For over 7 years now I have been practicing Software Engineering (especially Software Craftsmanship) professionally, including teaching community workshops on the subject matter.
HTML

HTML

Over my 7+ years writing software, nearly all of my projects have involved HTML. I have built websites for employees of large companies and startups with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I have also used HTML in combination with other technologies to develop mobile applications and on several personal projects.
Java

Java

Java is the first language I ever learned and has a special place in my heart. It is a great language to start with, since it is well structured and gives a great foundation for the concepts that are needed to understand Computer Science effectively. Much like learning the piano gives you a great understanding of musical theory. I have worked on a wide variety of projects in Java, including mobile apps, data structures, sorting algorithms, and personal side projects. I also have a good familiarity with JUnit testing and good Java conventions that I am excited to share!
JavaScript

JavaScript

I have worked on many JavaScript projects throughout my career, including web apps, mobile apps, website front ends and back ends, and a number of more academic projects. If you are looking for help with a particular framework, I have experience with Angular 2-8, Ionic, Node, and a bit of Vue and React. JavaScript is a fun language with lots of interesting idiosyncrasies, that is very flexible and versatile to use.
Python

Python

I have been using python for about 10 years now. In that time I have also trained several clients in the use of Python, from college students to startup founders to experienced software developers. Whatever your Python needs, I am happy to help.

Very knowledgeable, patient and helpful

Reagan did a great job helping me with JUnit testing and java. He did a great job with explaining certain tests that I didn't understand. He explained what the code was doing and the reasons that the tests were passing or failing. He challenged me and asked questions which helped me understand better. I highly recommend Reagan as a tutor if you really want to understand the concepts.

AWESOME !!!! THE VERY BEST!!!

Reagan is not only kind, he's smart, patient, and a gentle, logical teacher. He knows how to guide you while teaching you. I've had many on-line teachers, but this guy is THE BEST I have ever had. I will only use him going forward. What I thought would be 5 or 6 meetings took only one. Truly an amazing man and teacher

Patient, knowldgable, well rounded instructor

I had reached out for help on a school project. The turnaround time is rather tight, and me being completely new to Java + having no coding back round makes this pretty challenging. Reagan is absolutely wonderful. He is patient with me but also make sure I learn every step we go in building this project. He is also very flexible with his schedule to accommodate. Definitely recommend five stars!

Reagan is the real deal!

Reagan was great, I was skeptical about this service but it is legit. He helped me out with my coding boot-camp homework. I will be scheduling more sessions soon!

Reagan is just the best!!

I'm working my way through an Algorithms course and Reagan is helping me build out a data type for my algorithm. To say he's great is an understatement. He catches things that I don't see way ahead of time. It's a skill I aspire to have and working with him makes me feel more and more experienced. That's huge, especially when it comes to imposter syndrome when becoming a software engineer. I can't stress this enough, schedule with him! He's incredible!

fantastic!

Explains everything really well. He breaks down complicated blocks of code and helped me understand how it worked. Highly suggest for undergrad CS students.

Shayna, 2 lessons with Reagan

Helped me with c# .net logging feature of nlog

Hi everyone, I was in a real bind with my project. I was unsure what kind of logging to implement. I told Reagan what kind of logging i had researched, and he helped me implement logging on an application utilizing nlog. He did it in 2 hours without knowing much about the application. I had already installed nlog from nuget. I highly recommend Reagan.

Great Instructor

Working on custom form field formats via JavaScript within an Acrobat DC PDF. Reagan got me MUCH farther than I would’ve gotten myself and he’s as patient as he is knowledgeable. Great Guy!!

Patient and Goal-Oriented Tutor

Reagan listened to my goals for my programming, and helped me get set up with Database work right away. He is prompt and resourceful, and makes it easy to ask questions along the way so as to learn more.

COLBY, 3 lessons with Reagan

One of the best tutors!

I've had the opportunity to work with a few tutors on this platform and Reagan is by far one of the best! He's super patient and explains DSA concepts absolutely perfectly. He's an effective communicator and takes time to make sure his words make sense to you. I highly recommend him for tech interview preparation! I'm way too happy I found him! Check him out for sure, go on and schedule!
