I have 6 years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages in Computer Science and Game Design. I specialize in Python, Game Design in Unity, Cloud Computing and Machine Learning. I currently work as free lance Software Engineer but have previously worked as as full time Senior Full Stack Developer and as an AP Computer Science high school teacher. I also run an after school Robotics and Programming club. I emphasize project based learning. My goal is to figure out what creative technology centered project you want to work on and help you accomplish your goals.

I enjoy making coding activities fun and interactive. My hope is for you to walk away from each lesson with a fun project you can continue to work on and learn from independently. Every 1 hour of tutoring should open the door to 10 hours of independent learning or the tutor isn't doing their job right.

If you love technology and want to gain understanding about creating your own software, I would love to help you learn more.

Great teacher, he knows Unity well.

Great tutor, very knowledgeable and doesn’t waste your time on things that you already know. He knows Unity very well and helps you with other sights on where to get premade movements. If you’re looking for Game design, Noah is an excellent choice.

M. Gabriela, 1 lesson with Noah

Explained things in a way that finally made sense to me!

We reviewed Classes and Noah explained binary trees in a straightforward way, which made it easier for me to grasp the concept. Will definitely reach out to him again in the future when I’m stuck.

Sabrina, 1 lesson with Noah

Solid first session

Noah helped me map out strategy for a Extract, Transform, Load project w/Python. Looking forward to next session to review implementation.

Manuel , 1 lesson with Noah

Excellent at explaining complex details

Noah worked with my son on computer science. He was getting an F in that class, but after classes with Noah, he brought his grade to an A. My son feels very comfortable with Noah because he explains things very clearly. I highly recommend Noah for CS tutoring.

Pilar, 9 lessons with Noah

Basic Unity lesson

This is my first time using this app and I had Noah as my first tutor. His method of explaining and comparing functions to animals really helped me develop a better understanding of unity.

Nicholas, 6 lessons with Noah

Learned a lot!

Noah helped my son last minute with a CS project, and he completely understood the lesson after one session. He was very accommodating of our schedule, too. We will definitely use again!

Nicole, 5 lessons with Noah

Knowledgable and patient

Noah has an extensive knowledge of coding and unity and the ability to approach error messages on Unity from multiple angles. He is friendly, and willing to explain things and break them down step by step
