Andrew S. is a thoughtful, experienced, and keen educator. He is proficient enough to answer most any question some one might have about IT or security. He provides explanation past your initial query to ensure that you leave the lesson with a little more mastery than you expected to sit down and receive. Andrew has a high and low level command of the subject matter and will help you understand in turn. I highly recommend Andrew for your IT/Security needs.

Security+ tutoring

Andrew was a great help when it came to passing my Security+ exam. He broke down the concepts in a way that was easy to understand and was able to provide lots of links where additional information could be found for difficult topics. I would highly recommend Andrew if you are looking to take the Security+ exam.
