CalTech Grad, Software engineer with 30+ years experience.
I would love to help. I find online tutoring works quite well. I will have you share your screen with me. If you have an assignment, together we will write a working code solution. We will use the software development environment (e.g., eclipse) of your choice.
I'm a software engineer recently retired. My work experience includes coding in C++, Java, C, and assembler in the Linux environment. I have used tools such as vi and Eclipse. I have experience with various scripting languages...

Knowledgable and Passionate Tutor - Highly Recommend!
Amy has helped me multiple times over the last few weeks in advanced object-oriented programming. I have learned so much from every single lesson. She has walked me through many assignments and because of that, I have been able to pass every quiz/test with ease. I am a college senior and have never had any tutoring prior to this, but I am very pleased with her ability to help me understand. Her passion for the material is evident and she is willing to explain and demonstrate multiple ways to accomplish the task at hand. While nervous at first at the idea of online tutoring, she made the experience very easy and comfortable. When I started my Java class this semester, I had no idea how I would be able to pass. Now, I am looking at finishing with an A thanks to Amy's help. Please don't hesitate to schedule an appointment. Every minute of Amy's tutoring is valuable!

Amy is a wonderful tutor
Amy is a wonderful tutor. She is very engaging, patient, and knowledgeable in Java programming and good at explaining concepts. She has many resources to aid in learning. I plan on having her teach my son again. I would definitely recommend her.

Top-tier tutor!
Amy has an amazing ability to quickly locate issues and come up with a solution with hardly any prompting- she gets down to the root cause almost immediately and her debugging skills are top notch. With Amy's help, we were able to come up with a solution to a binary search tree issue I was having problems with in Python. I would highly recommend Amy to anyone - she's truly a wiz and takes time to explain the issue and what precisely needs to be fixed. 10/10 - would use again :-)

Amy is Amazing !!
I’m impressed with Amy’s ability to quickly grasp a complex level of information given in the assignment and zero in on the problems. She’s a super knowledgeable programmer and fast thinker with amazing problem-solving abilities. Given the complex and difficult assignments I had to implement 3d image processing algorithms and recursion, though she didn’t have everything mapped out at the beginning Amy was able to promptly figure out the right solutions. Thanks so much Amy! Kudos to you !!

Incredibly knowledgeable and good at explaining
Amy went over how to parse binary data and to pull specific pieces of information from a binary header file. I was impressed with her scope of knowledge and hope to have more tutoring sessions with her in the future.

Super knowledgeable and flexible hours
Amy is a genius at C++. She also has a very kind manner about her and is good at explaining concepts. I plan to continue to work with her on an ongoing basis to strengthen my knowledge.

Excellent tutor
Amy taught our daughter Java and C++ (both college level) for several months. She is very knowledgable in programming and has a terrific background and experience. She is patient and flexible with any last minute scheduling requests. She is my go to tutor for programming help. Highly recommend Amy.

Very helpful!
Amy helped me to work over all of my bugs and figure out how to fix the issues I couldn’t solve on my own. She also gave me some general tips and advice for going about solving a problem set.

Look elsewhere for college assignments
This session was a waste of time and money. If you're in college and have an assignment the professor gives you that has constraints and a particular way the professor wants you to do it - go elsewhere. Amy did not understand what my professor was asking for - despite me having sent her all of the files/prompts/constraints well in advance - and didn't seem to know how to do it the professor's way. She actually asked me about half a dozen times to "google search" certain C++ functions/libraries, etc. so that she could read it and figure it out. I did not appreciate paying over 100 dollars to google for my tutor. Even if she did need a reminder of a certain ruction, why couldn't she google it on her own computer? What a waste of time! And, it didn't help anyway...in the hour I had she wasn't able to figure it out and the code the did tell me to write was incorrect and broke the rest of the program I already had running. I had to undo it all, contact my professor, and re-do it. Waste.of.time.and.money.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor in C programming
Amy assisted with a C programming assignment of a client/server interactive game. She was kind and patient when examining my existing code and helping me to progress the development of the code. Amy was helpful to explain the why behind all lines of code written to ensure my understanding after we ended our session. I would definitely work with her again and look forward to the opportunity to learn from a wonderful programmer and teacher.
