The Languages I teach include Python, Modern JavaScript, Java, C, C++ and Ruby.

My approach is being patient, informal and listening closely to my students. I prefer one-on-one and side-by-side learning and working through problems and projects together. Most important, I care a great deal about helping my students succeed!

Need coding advice? Or having trouble dealing with a complicated codebase? I have over 20 years of industry experience as a software developer, architect and project lead. I consult using Java, JavaScript, C, C++, Python, Spring Framework, Android, Angular, React, Full Stack Web development and a whole host of other technologies.

I am a scientist (physicist), software engineer and tutor, with a PhD in Physics and a background in Math and computer science. I've been tutoring high school, home school, college students and adult life-long learners for the past 15 years, and I love doing it. I draw on my years of experience, to bring life to sometimes otherwise dry subject matters. I focus on the intuitive, helping students develop a deeper understanding of the subject, develop problem solving skills

My Background: I graduated from the University of Maryland Honors College, with a Bachelors in both Physics and Mathematics in 1992, followed with a PhD in Physics, from SUNY Stonybrook in 2000. I've worked with Lasers; slowing and trapping atomic beams; calculated the equations of state of collapsing neutron stars; climate modeling; Accelerator Particle Physics Simulations; Quantum density matrix computations; computati

Looking for help with Angular 2? It just so happens that Web programming is one of my specialties, as is teaching programming and doing pair coding sessions online. I have been building websites and web applications for over 20 years now, and I am confident I can help you, whatever your learning needs are. I have worked with Angular specifically for almost 8 years now, I can guide you though the Angular architecture, with or without TypeScript. I can show you how to effectively use Components and Services, structure your Angular Modules, write your own Directives, work with the Angular IoC/dependency injection architecture, lazy initialize components and routes, use the Router effectively, to solve your routing challenges as well as instruct you in industry best practices.. I regularly teach students how to program in modern JavaScript, ES6/ECMAScript JQuery, Angular, React, Flux, Redux, Axios, Fetch, D3, Underscore, NodeJS, Express, Handlebars, SQL/RDMS, SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Microsoft, SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB, Firebase, Responsive Mobile first design, HTLM 5, CSS3, Bootstrap/Foundations, Git and Github, as well as other tools and technologies for bringing your Site to life. I help my students to learn web design with modern techniques, web programming, creating and consuming RESTful API's, Google API's including maps, cloud hosting, cloud services (such as Firebase, AWS S3 and more), social media integration, routing, MVC architectures and so much more. My students include high school students; current and newly matriculated University students; Boot Camp and nano degree students; as well as mid career adult students, looking to step into new roles or change positions. I work by helping my students in gaining confidence, adding to their programming portfolios, learning new technologies and shoring up their understanding of programming topics.
C,

C

I have been working with C and C++ for over 25 years. I have seen it change from "C with Classes," to the language we have today. I have kept abreast with coding best practices, and modern advise on auto, pointer, smart pointer, reference and gvalue, lvalue, rvalue, xvalue and prvalue and move semantics. I have a great deal of experience with the STL, and proper use of templates.

I specialize in Java, J2EE, C++, Angular, Javascript, HTML5, JavaRX, OpenGL and Vulkan. With over 15 years of Industry experience as a developer, lead developer, team lead and software architect, I have seen it all. I have hired and fired developers, built teams from the ground up, mentored team members, evaluated their work and help guide them to be better programmers. I have countless successful full lifecycle development projects under my belt. I have worked with Product Management and stakeholders to develop project requirements schedules. I am happy to share my knowledge and experience with you.

Calculus,

Calculus

Calculus in one of my favorite subjects to tutor. As a Physicist, and even as a software engineer, I have had a long acquaintance with both analytical and numerical methods in Calculus, and in teaching and explaining them to others. I find that while people are often intimidated when they are first exposed to the subject, given the right attention and individual coaching, they can easily master the subject. In addition to helping you master the subject, I will also introduce you to so many additional resources, available free online, to help you along your Calculus journey. While it may seem sometimes that Calculus is just one great big mixed up jumble of finicky techniques and obscure rules and ideas. I believe the subject can become completely intuitive and understandable with the right teaching methods. Let me help you untangle that mess and master this subject. Calculus is such an important subject, both to your education and your future. Don't let your GPA or future suffer!
Geometry,

Geometry

Teaching geometry requires a different touch, than most other Math Classes. Geometry is unique among the early math classes, as it relies mainly on the ability to reason spatially, and not on the ability to manipulate symbols on a page. Yet, geometry is probably one of the most important courses you will ever take, as many Mathematicians say, "All math IS Geometry." With a PhD in Physics, and an interest in many pure maths, such as differential geometry, abstract algebra, discrete math, computer algorithms, and number theory, I spend allot of time revisiting the Concepts I learned in Geometry. Let me help you gain and understanding and an appreciation for this incredible subject.

I would love the opportunity to change your mind, and share with you the beauty of this subject. Let me help you to shine in this incredible and exciting subject.

Precalculus

Getting ready for Calculus is an exciting time! Precalculus is partly a review of algebra, geometry and trigonometry along with a range of new topics. Precalculus is an excellent time to solidify the foundation necessary, to enable you to solve many real-world problems, and make Calculus easy. As for my qualification, I've been teaching High School and College Mathematics, both online and in person for the last 10 years. I have a Bachelors in both Math and Physics, and a PhD in Physics. I believe in working with students to help them develop a deep understanding of the fundamentals, as well as teach them useful strategies to solve problems and study techniques to excel in their testing. I focus on problem solving using real world examples, to show how relevant and useful These problems solving techniques can be. My goal is to make math fun, not boring, and pleasant, not intimidating. Whether you are looking to go on to Calculus, or just get through the Precalc material, I am here to help you succeed and build the confidence you need to shine!

Great Tutor and very patient.

I am learning Java from Jeffery and he is very knowledgeable in his subject and is very patient and explains everything in great detail and as many times as you want. He will make sure you understand something completely and why that is happening so you also understand the logic behind the questions. Would highly recommend!

excellent

Jeffery is very knowledgeable, respectful, and patient! By far the best tutor I've found on Wyzant so far. He knows D3 well and could immediately spot errors in my code. I would highly recommend him.

Great job.

Jeffery helped me wrap my head around a Java/Spring Framework project, and solve a latency problem caused by some poorly written code. Patient and really knows his stuff.

Stress Relieving, Teenage Saving Tutor!

Thank you so much for helping my son get caught up on short notice after a family emergency required him to miss a number of his class periods. You definitely added value to his life tonight and he (and we) really appreciate your time and effort!
