I am a life-long Chicagoan who earned B.S. and M.S. degrees in Computer Science at UIC. I have 15 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer, and a true passion for teaching. I specialize in tutoring Java, JavaScript, C#, ASP.NET, Python, Linux, and HTML. My tutoring career began as an undergraduate, when I helped students at Harper College and UIC with introductory programming classes. Over time, my repertoire expanded to include HS and undergraduate level mathematics and a w...

I am currently an undergrad studying computer science, and although I love the material, it seems to fly by a little too fast. I decided to ask Jason for some help, and he was able to very clearly demonstrate the concepts to me. On our first session, he asked me my preferred way of learning, and I explained to him that I need to be able to visualize what is going on conceptually to fully understand the material. He was able to draw up diagrams and charts during our sessions, which helped immensely. In addition, he was able to quickly analyze code he had never seen before, and suggest more efficient methodologies to generate the same result. There was no time wasted on his part by "figuring out" what is going on in my assignments, and he always came prepared. For any programming related (dealing specifically with code) tutoring that you may require, I would strongly recommend Jason to you.

Jason did an excellent job with helping me understand the curriculum in my assignments. I highly recommend him as a tutor.

I was having trouble understanding Java for a Data Structures class but I wasn't sure exactly what I couldn't understand. Jason went over my homework with me and helped me understand how all the pieces fit together. He was very patient and helped me break down big problems into easier to handle smaller problems. I learned helpful new skills that weren't taught in class, such as how to use a debugger and ways to minimize the amount of code. He also helped me plan and study for my midterm and final exams. I saw Jason for seven sessions and I definitely feel that I learned a lot from each one. I highly recommend Jason for anyone studying Java.

I worked with Jason for merely 8 hours. He based our session on my needs as I requested, which was working on solving problems and coding programs. He used this to instruct me through the coding process. He is a cordial tutor, knowledgeable, and organized. I liked working with him, he taught me a lot and I will not hesitate working him again.
