About Zachary


Bio

Hello, I am Zachary. All throughout my life I have realized that I enjoy passing on my knowledge and helping others increase their own knowledge because in the end, that is the best outcome for everyone involved. For example, when I was joining the U.S. Army, before being shipped off to Basic Training, my recruiting office asked me tutor some of the other guys that were struggling with some parts of the ASVAB. I had agreed because I saw no reason not to help others any way I could.

Hello, I am Zachary. All throughout my life I have realized that I enjoy passing on my knowledge and helping others increase their own knowledge because in the end, that is the best outcome for everyone involved. For example, when I was joining the U.S. Army, before being shipped off to Basic Training, my recruiting office asked me tutor some of the other guys that were struggling with some parts of the ASVAB. I had agreed because I saw no reason not to help others any way I could.

I have no professional math tutoring experience, but did well enough in math all of my life to be able to teach basic mathematics. I informally tutored one of my Aunts a couple of years ago at the request of my Father. I taught a couple of fellow Army recruits enough high school math, algebra, and confidence in their own skills to be able to pass the ASVAB.
I have always had an interest in and passion for technology. In high school, I was a part of the school's robotics team. When I joined the U.S. Army, my job title was Cyber Operations Specialist. The training for that job included a 6-month course that went from how computers work at a basic level to programming to defense and malware analysis and everything in between.

I am now going back to college for my degree in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance, currently have a CompTIA A+, Network+, and Security+ certificates, and in my free time I am moderator of a python learning discord where we frequently teach each other things about python. Most of my time on that discord is answering questions, giving pointers, and providing resources to learn from. I also do the same thing on a subreddit either answering questions or explain quirks of python and how best to handle them.

Great Tutor & Highly Knowledgeable

Zachary was very helpful in showing many different approaches to using Python code. He was very thorough, knowledgeable, and a great resource for helping me comprehend Python coding. I would highly recommend Zachary as a tutor as we were able to accomplish everything I was looking to learn.

excellent experience

Had an amazing experience! He walks me through each step and does not make me feel like an idiot for not knowing information. Definitely been a huge help and supplement to my regular learning.

Knowledgeable and prepared tutor

Zachary tutored my son for his Intro to Programming class. My son said that Zachary was very knowledge and personable. He was also fully prepared for the tutoring session. My son will be a repeat customer!

Knowledgable, but didn't finish the job :(

Zachary did teach me a lot, however, I needed help getting the program finished. I kept asking about shuffling the decks, but he would not completely help and when we did start talking about it, time was up. I kept telling him that the shuffling was important and that was the main thing I needed help with. Although he helped with reducing some of the code, it was unfinished. Hopefully, this is not the case in that he was stalling to make money which is part of the process, but when I kept persisting about the shuffling it needed to be fixed. It is the most difficult for me to try without help forcing me to get yet another tutor to finish the job, and yes, he even forgot to send a file last night. I direct messaged him asking for it, but didn't respond until well over 12 hours later. This is coming from another veteran.

very smart ! patient and helpful !

He tutored me for my homework python/API/GitHub. He had so much knowledge and took his time to explain as well as helping me finish the assignment. Awesome !

Kanza, 2 lessons with Zachary

Very well explained

I like how Zachary talked through each step and always asked if I understood what line of code we were on before he moved on to the next step. He was very patient and knowledgeable.
