I have degrees in Math and Physics from The University of Texas at Austin.
Growing up in Houston, Space exploration is dear to my heart.

I found from an early age that I am a natural teacher and trainer. I love finding the right way to explain complex concepts, making them understandable to the student no matter what their level and tuning the training to their desired outcome.

I have thousands of hours providing tutoring, training, and coaching to students, entrepreneurs, and engineers.

Whether you are in high school, university or a career changing bootcamp, I can help !

I will help you with the technical material.
I can also help you develop ( and execute ) a study or career plan to guarantee your success.

Join me and become a successful starshipCoder.

I started programing in high school, building an IMSAI 8080 and continue to program microcontrollers to this day.

I have started and participated in several software startups. I have also studied programing, software engineering, and the foundational mathematics of programing and software design from an academic point of view.

Because of my long and storied background and excellent communication skills, I can make programing interesting, understandable, and profitable for you whether you are just trying to pass a class, land a high paying job or to become a top paid freelance coder.

I look forward to hearing about your goals and objectives and creating a custom plan for your success.

Let’s get started today, I can help!

Thanks,

C,

C

Programed C, C*, and C++ from microcontrollers to supercomputers I learned C when it was first introduced in the 80’s. I have programed in C, C*, and C++ from microcontrollers to supercomputers I can not only teach you to code in C, I can teach you the underlying compiler and computer concepts that you will need to know to be a good C programer. C is an excellent training language because it shows you how compilers and computers work. C is an excellent embedded systems language because if you know how it works, you can write the fast, compact code needed for embedded systems.
C++,

C++

If you're new to programming, new to C++, or new to high-performance computing I can meet you where you are and move you forward quickly. C++ is most commonly used for embedded systems and high-performance applications. I started programming in C++ as soon as it was introduced in 1998. I used it to support my work on solar flair simulations on a supercomputer at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Now, I specialize in C++ 20 for embedded and high-performance applications.
CSS,

CSS

I began developing Web sites back when HTML was the only language. Now we have the Front End Coding suite of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Over the years, I have developed many Web sites for my own projects as well as paying clients. I look forward to sharing my decades of experience to accelerate your success.
Data Science,

Data Science

As a scientist and engineer I have used the tools of data science off and on throughout my career. Now I am focused on training data science utilizing the tools available with Python in PyCharm and the Jupyter Notebook. I am also using R and RStudio. I am currently enrolled in a graduate program with the University of Texas called : ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND MACHINE LEARNING: BUSINESS APPLICATIONS This will will extend my understanding and skills into business applications and AI as well. So, if you want to learn data science or need help with the latest tools I can help you with that.

Java,

Java

If you are doing AP CS I can keep it simple and help you understand the basics of programing, logic and math needed to succeed. If you are in a university class and the coding or theory is just not clicking, I can focus on what you need and strengthen what you’ve got. If you want to become a Java expert using Spring or JavaFX, I can help with that too. I first studied Java in a Design Patterns study group back when both Java and Design Patterns where very new. I can help you understand your programing problem, design a solution and implement that solution in Java. We can keep it very simple, to just complete a homework or test problem, or we can go as deep into software engineering theory as you need. Contact me for a free interview or your first lesion now.

JavaScript,

JavaScript

JavaScript is the key to modern Font End Coding. It is also used as a first programing language or many new programers. My focus is JavaScript for beginners, so if your just getting started and want a solid introduction to programing and the tools and techniques of Front End Programing I can help.

Astronomy

I have degrees in Math & Physics, Astronomy / Astrophysics is a passion I can not only help you get your homework done with good marks, I can help you design and write an excellent paper or project. More importantly, I can share with the the beauty of astronomy, astrophysics, and space exploration and its importance in your life and the future “for All Mankind.”

An excellent communicator with contagious enthusiasm for the material

Learning Java with Russell is unlike the tradition lessons in syntax and semantics. I'm beginning to view my Java code with more intuition and look forward to our next lessons very much!

Reis, 4 lessons with Russell

Knowledgeable, places effort into demonstration.

Taught me about threads and processes. Went over c++ implementation of a count character program. Duration was about 2 hours, going to be meeting again this upcoming tuesday.

Tyler, 4 lessons with Russell

Expert knowledge

Russel. has the professional experience, and was a great guide and teaching me design pattern in efficient way also provided me the perfect recourses that I need, affordable hours pay. Thank you.

Very Patient & helpful!

Russell has helped me multiple times with my Java class (intro-college level). Not only did he help me get specific homework assignments done, but also made a huge effort to make sure I’m actually understanding what we are doing. He is very patient and is always willing to take the time to step back, break it down, and explain basic concepts when necessary. He also takes the time to look over the assignment before you meet, which is a huge time saver and makes our sessions very productive! Highly recommend him for any Java help!

Sarah , 2 lessons with Russell

Russell works through the assignments with me. He lets me do as much as I can, but when I get stuck, he takes the time to explain things in laymen's terms so that I understand and can progress.

Russell has been tutoring me in Java and JavaScript. There are distinct differences. By having me do the work and answering my questions when I don't understand, he is ensuring that I become proficient with the fundamentals.
