Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been in the world of computer science my entire life, often focused on coding and platforms of different types. Over my career I have spent countless hours and presentations explaining how complex technical things "work" to a nontechnical crowd. This is the expertise I bring to classes, gaining understanding before skill building. While retired now, I dedicate my time to passing along decades of experience to the next generation, enabling them to go even further in their own careers. Reviews
