My name is Ferdinand. I am a software engineer with over 5 years of experience. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Virginia Commonwealth University (where I worked as a tutor for 2 years) with a degree in Computer Engineering and minors in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics.

Currently, my focus is on helping students become comfortable with programming and providing software engineering industry guidance for those interested. I understand what it feels like to be a student beating around ground-breaking concepts (that simply needed to be explain another way) or someone who is trying to break into the industry. As for my teaching principles, I make sure my students understand the "how" and "why" of the material we cover and provide actionable steps to approach tasks in the future.

Because of the action guiding principles I give to my students, many are able to solve problems on their own and reason about their approaches after a few sessions. Feel free to reach out with any concerns or to schedule a session!

Ferdinand was extremely patient and took his time to explain material.

Testing api’s. We went over classes, methods and constructors. He was clearly able to break down steps and assist with an assignment that was very challenging. He really clarified each scenario and patiently made sure I understood each step

Ferdinand is AMAZING

I have had Ferdinand as my tutor multiple times. I love how he guides you and helps you make the decisions rather than just showing you what to do. Definitely has helped me learn a TON!

Ferdinand---excellent! He was very patient and kind with my son, who has autism

Ferdinand took the time to make sure he understood the Java assignment before starting. He checked for understanding along the way and reviewed some important concepts that had been forgotten. We got a lot done in two hours!

So knowledgeable, patient, and great at explaining hard concepts

Ferdinand is helping me with my HLA class in college. He is so patient, is great at explaining all of the hard concepts, and really knows his stuff! He is so nice and accommodating and goes above and beyond to be available and helpful. I went from getting Cs and not understanding the subject at all to raising my grade to an A and now I feel like I know what I'm talking about. Every project that he has helped me with so far I got 100! He is a great tutor whom I highly recommend!

Very helpful!

Ferdinand really helped me with understanding so many concepts and he cleared everything out. He is very patient and he explained things until he makes sure I understand them.

Knowledgeable and flexible

My son was off to a bad start in Algebra 2, but Ferdinand was able to clear up some areas of confusion for him during their first lesson today. He is feeling a lot more optimistic and looking forward to the next lesson. Thanks!
