Bio

Hi! I believe in encouraging students to explore and become self-sufficient by fostering curiosity, while strengthening their skills. Personally, my undergraduate education was in Engineering Technologies and led me to a career first in hardware and later my career has progressed towards software technologies.

Hi! I believe in encouraging students to explore and become self-sufficient by fostering curiosity, while strengthening their skills. Personally, my undergraduate education was in Engineering Technologies and led me to a career first in hardware and later my career has progressed towards software technologies. Still, I have a passion for tutoring and helping others develop, especially in the realm of computer science.

Primarily I have previous tutoring tutoring ranging from elementary all the way to the graduate level. I have taught a range of subjects and understand the vitality in tailor fitting lessons to each particular student based on their learning aptitudes. My previous tutoring has been both with students in the US, in addition to many international students, primarily from Asia. The subjects I have previously tutored include writing, science, and engineering. However, on this platform I hope to begin helping students learn Swift. I have been specializing in the cutting-edge framework of SwiftUI for iOS app development and if this is something you are interested in please let me know if I can help. Also, if you just want to learn fundamentals of programming, I would be happy to teach that as well in either Swift, Python, or C++.

Personally, I love tutoring because of the flexibility it gives me. Often I travel extensively and therefore online tutoring is a great way for me to stay engaged. I also, enjoy being able to help others learn and am a lifelong learner myself. To me, tutoring is bi-directional and I often gain tremendous benefit from my students questions and perspective. It would be my joy to help you along your journey towards being a proficient developer.

I have been engaged with many of the features of both the language and the iOS framework it is so often used for. I understand Apple's language design philosophy, as well as necessary tools to become a proficient developer. In addition, through my background with computer science I know best practices for design and testing. Beyon

Approved Subjects

Computer Programming

Computer Programming

I develop complex apps in multiple languages both for web and mobile. Currently my focus is to become a senior iOS developer, but on the side I like to take on data science projects using Python. Throughout my time programming I have worked with teams on complex projects and contributed to the architecture design and testing suites for multiple projects. Additionally, I actively contribute to open source projects on GitHub.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I utilize computer science methodologies and principles to develop complex apps and testing suites. With several years of experience in a variety of software fields, I am able to leverage data structures and algorithms to develop clean production ready software. As to work experience, I have worked as a computer scientist within multiple teams on complex projects. In many instances, I have been a main stakeholder in deciding upon the architecture design and testing suites for projects. Lastly, I actively tutor the subject and contribute to open source projects on GitHub.
JavaScript

JavaScript

Building native apps using Javascript with React Native and also able to help tutor those learning the language in general. I specialize in iOS but have built several apps using the React Native framework. Hopefully, I can help you in your next project or with tutoring needs to understand JS.
Python

Python

I have used Python to develop everything from web development to data science and machine learning applications. Having aced my data structures and algorithms course in college using Python, I am equipped and ready to help students solidify their personal understanding of Python. My favorite teaching style for programming is to pair the theory with the application so that students not only can implement code successfully, but also understand at a deep level what is going on under the hood.
Swift

Swift

I develop complex SwiftUI apps and am focusing to become a senior iOS developer. I have worked with teams on complex projects and contributed to the architecture design and testing suites for multiple projects. Additionally, I actively contribute to open source projects on github.

knowledgeable and patient

I had the pleasure of working with Benjamin, who provided me with invaluable guidance on using GitHub and navigating a Mac for coding. His teaching style was incredibly effective—he broke down complex topics into simple, easy-to-understand steps, making everything feel manageable. Benjamin is not only knowledgeable but also patient, taking the time to ensure I understood each concept before moving on. He walked me through the necessary tools and commands, offering practical examples that made the learning process engaging and relevant. Whenever I encountered an issue related to my classes, Benjamin was quick to provide solutions and explain why they worked, which helped deepen my understanding. His approach made coding feel less intimidating, and I now feel much more confident in using GitHub and coding on my Mac. Overall, Benjamin is an exceptional teacher who truly cares about his students' success, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their technical skills.

Very knowledgeable and great teacher

Benjamin explained things so well and taught me additional information for my assignments in my Swift class that’s so helpful! I think he will help me really learn the language and be successful and I look forward to more sessions.

Cullen, 1 lesson with Benjamin

Very helpful

He taught me about @State to change variables within structure, and observable objects. He also helped me setup my app on Firebase and start setting up the Firebase authentication.

Great communication

I’m looking forward to more help from Benjamin on iOS development like Swift, SwiftUi, XCode, etc.! He was insightful and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to any other beginners needing help.

Patient and thorough

Benjamin walked me through the steps of my assignment and we thoroughly covered each one . He also explained what certain things in python did like loops, dictionaries, etc.

Elda, 1 lesson with Benjamin

Smart, helpful and flexible!

Ben was a great tutor for me. I was able to share the context of where I am on my learning journey with Swift and he was able to suggest next steps that are relatively challenging. Highly recommend for Swift tutoring.

Benjamin

Benjamin teaches me how to create programs on GitHub. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient. He helped me a lot. I feel incredibly horrible approaching my project until Benjamin walked us through. Fantastic. Will be taking more lessons from him. Thank you, Benjamin!

Great teacher!

Benjamin was extremely patient and helpful and he managed to break it down for me to bite-sized data that I can easily grasp, being I'm by far not a tech wiz... Kudos for that alone! Other than that, Benjamin is very pleasant and friendly yet highly professional. Thanks again, Benjamin!
