Skilled Coding Mentor with 25+ Years Writing Production C++ at both Fortune 500 companies and startups.

I'm Tarie: a senior software engineer with 25+ years of professional C++ and C# experience building production systems at companies including Microsoft, Coca-Cola, AT&T, and more. My academic background includes a BS in Information Technology and an MBA, a Certificate in C++ Programming from Champlain College, and additional certifications in data science, blockchain, and project management. I begin graduate coursework in computer science at Georgia Tech this fall. I tutor C++, C#, .NET, introductory programming, data structures, systems concepts, debugging, and code review; I also coach students through college CS coursework, AP Computer Science prep, and industry certification study. My students range from beginners and career switchers to working professionals leveling up and college students stuck on a tough assignment. My teaching style is patient and concrete: we work on your actual code, your actual problem, and the conceptual gaps your textbook glosses over. I've personally mentored a family member through an accelerated business degree, so I understand what real, sustained learning support looks like. Send me what you're stuck on; I'll meet you exactly where you are.
