Highly Experienced & Enjoyable To Work With.
Cecelia, 16 lessons with MichaelSaying that Michael has extensive experience is an understatement. He's been in this industry for 50 years, including working as a professor for two decades, and it shows. He's very patient, and is excellent at explaining concepts, how and why your code is working (or not working),and he does this in an easy to understand and approachable way. I highly recommend him.
I was a software developer for 30 years, and then taught Computer Science at a community college for 20 years. I have been very successful at teaching students how to write code based on accurately understanding what goes on inside a computer. Degrees: MS, PhD, Computer Science.
I could charge more than $25/hour, but I tutor because I enjoy teaching, not to earn the most possible money. I like to help people who really want to learn programming, even if they are not able to afford a high...

Absolutely enjoyable
Michael did wonders in explaining concerts in a concise and straightforward way. The C programming demonstrations done also helped to understand the key concepts at hand. Likewise, conversing with him is great, super nice guy!

Great tutor who teaches practical information with a focus on developing a deep understanding of programming
When I chose computer science as a major, I knew I'd like it, but I never thought I'd be passionate about it until I hired Michael as a tutor. Every time I meet with him, I fall a little more in love with computer science. He's taught me practical skills such as how to use debuggers in Visual Studio and GDB, and he's helped me gain a better understanding of what's actually happening under the hood of the programming languages I'm using. I transferred from a uni that uses mainly Java to one that uses C++ and I would be drowning if it weren't for him showing me features of the languages that help me conceptualize things such as memory management and pointers. I'm so grateful to him for his help. If you're struggling to understand something or trying to play catch up like me, definitely reach out to him.

great fit!!
Based on this first I’m very hopeful that I’ve finally found what I need out of a tutor. He is very knowledgeable both about programming and about teaching. These are both equally important in finding a good teacher. I should be able to make steady progress towards my goals now!
