About Andrew


Bio

I'm a software engineer with 20+ years of experience, including 13 years building iPhone and iPad apps. I've shipped 6 apps to the Apple App Store, worked at Microsoft, and hold a CS degree from the University of Toronto. I love helping younger students discover that programming is a creative superpower, not just a school subject.

I tutor Swift, C, JavaScript, React, AI coding, and computer science fundamentals.

My teaching style is project-based and hands-on. We can build a simple game...

I'm a software engineer with 20+ years of experience, including 13 years building iPhone and iPad apps. I've shipped 6 apps to the Apple App Store, worked at Microsoft, and hold a CS degree from the University of Toronto. I love helping younger students discover that programming is a creative superpower, not just a school subject.

I tutor Swift, C, JavaScript, React, AI coding, and computer science fundamentals.

My teaching style is project-based and hands-on. We can build a simple game (I've published 3 games so far), a calculator, or whatever the class requires. We'll pick a project that's genuinely interesting to the student and use it as a vehicle for learning real concepts like variables, loops, functions, classes, and debugging.

I'm patient and direct. I never make students feel bad for not knowing something. I ask a lot of questions to figure out where the confusion is, then break the concept down step by step until it clicks. I also try building confidence along the way.

If your student is curious about programming, struggling in a CS (Computer Science) class, or wants to take their creative ideas to the next level, I'd love to work with them.
