Bio

Are you enrolled in a coding boot camp? Do you feel lost sometimes, over your head, or a bit overwhelmed? As the name implies, coding boot camps, are fast-paced, highly intensive programs to get you from zero to hero in the least amount of time so that you can go out and start looking for a high-paying job as a developer. But for those of us who don't always learn quickly, we can get behind pretty quickly and then we are hustling and stressing just to catch up and we feel we must maintain...

Are you enrolled in a coding boot camp? Do you feel lost sometimes, over your head, or a bit overwhelmed? As the name implies, coding boot camps, are fast-paced, highly intensive programs to get you from zero to hero in the least amount of time so that you can go out and start looking for a high-paying job as a developer. But for those of us who don't always learn quickly, we can get behind pretty quickly and then we are hustling and stressing just to catch up and we feel we must maintain this pace just to keep up. Don't let it stress you. I am here to help.

I specialize in full-stack development and assisting those who are enrolled in a coding bootcamp that involves JavaScript libraries and frameworks such as React, Angular and Vue.js and connecting those to an API using either Node.js or .Net and .Net Core and persisting data to either a relational database like MySQL or Postgres or a No SQL database such as MongoDb.

I have been a full-stack web developer for over 20 years and have taught or tutored for the past 4 years. I make sure I understand what challenges you are having so that I can help you understand the problem, explain the code, and devise a solution.

My goal is to help you be a better developer.

Abraham, 2 lessons with James

Best experience I could ask for.

James was a wonderful tutor and was tremendously helpful in teaching me Angular, Node.js, Mongodb, and Express.js. I had very little understanding of programming coming into it but now I feel a lot more comfortable in the languages. Really helped me through programming, and made something I had no affinity for enjoyable and understandable.

James was very helpful with coaching and guiding me with setting up a database model and completing queries. I'm able to construct a model and develop queries and as I began working with James, I became more confident in completing the model. James is a great tutor.
