FAQ

How do I sign up?

Simply send me an email, call me at (437)-345-1048 or use the contact form below to set up a free 30 minute intro session.


Where do the sessions take place?

Sessions are fully online through Google Meets. A face camera is not necessary but a decent microphone or headset is recommended.


How does booking sessions work?

In our initial meeting we will discuss the time and frequency of the tutoring sessions. Sessions need to be paid for ahead of time. Multiple sessions can be paid for at once. Time slot availability may change based on demand or unforeseen circumstances and rescheduling may be required.


Are there any system requirements?

Most computers are likely fine for programming or app development needs. However, game development software tends to be more demanding and may require a more powerful computer for the best experience. Please ensure there is sufficient storage on the hard drive as additional software or programming frameworks may need to be installed on the computer. Detailed program download and set-up instructions will be provided as needed. Note: iOS app development requires a mac computer in order to build the application.


How can I reschedule a session?

Simply send me a message at least a day in advance to let me know you would like to reschedule for a different date. A missed session with no notice given will not be refunded.


How long will it take to build an app/website/game?

Everybody is different. Most students who are new to programming will be able to learn fairly quickly and will have a working and complete tutorial project within 10 sessions. Students are guided through the entire process from start to finish but are also always encouraged to brainstorm and experiment on their own in between sessions.
