Hey I'm James :) I'm currently a senior studying economics and computer science at New York University. My goal is to create a welcoming and engaging learning environment covering essential computer science topics. I'm skilled in backend, working with Linux systems, and programming language design. Whether you're completely new to programming or are looking to brush up on some skills, I will tailor the lessons to drive the best learning outcomes for you. I encourage you to bring lots of questions with you. The good, the bad, and the silly. You will not be barking up the wrong tree! If it's indicative at all if I have done my job correctly, you will leave feeling satiated and curious to go even deeper. Learning doesn't have to be a pain. I believe the glory is all in the journey and hopefully you can one day look back in awe at the progress you have made. It is truly my greatest pleasure to make learning fun and accessible for students of all ages and backgrounds.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading Murakami novels, running, and keeping up with new technologies. Right now, I'm learning about blockchain and all things web3.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out and I will get back to you!

Patient

Very patient, understanding and encouraging. This was my first session and I was not fully prepared for it. He slowed me down to focus on what can be, and needed to be accomplished for the session.
