Series Details

About

We will go through the basic Java concepts. I recommend anyone who has never coded in Java before start here! If you already have some knowledge or took the APCSA course last year and are looking to brush up on some skills, I also highly recommend you enroll in this course. 

This course covers only the very basic concepts so I plan to host a Java intermediate course in the future.

Tutor Qualifications

I have a very strong computer science background having dealt with a variety of different programming languages from a very young age. I have experience in HTML, CSS, Python, and Java.

I have both an entry-level and an associate-level certification in python from Python Institute, which I achieved in middle school. These certifications test me in complex concepts and show my deep understanding and knowledge

I have a foundational-level certification in Java from Oracle. This exam is very similar in content to the APCSA exam delivered by College Board. I have studied the concepts thoroughly and achieved a pass with 90%. I also plan to go further and take higher-level certifications in Java to further my knowledge.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

I am pretty flexible when it comes to attendance. Just make sure that you let me know beforehand if you are unavailable to attend so that I am not waiting on you.
