About Marvin
Creative problem solver with a thirst for knowledge, using tech and art to make life more beautiful.

Hi, my name is Marvin and I am passionate about programming. I came into contact with programming for the first time during my studies and immediately tasted blood. Since then I have been training myself privately and professionally in a wide variety of web development topics. I didn't grow up as a programmer. So I can still put myself in your position very well. When you start programming, it's easy to get overwhelmed. And where do you even start looking for answers? Don't worry, together we can do it.
See you soon,
your Marvin

Read on if you want to become a frontend developer, brush up knowledge in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React or TypeScript, or need help with your own web development projects.
I offer the following services:
---
I. FROM ZERO TO HERO - your basic course in web development
All the way from step zero to your first job application, we will go through all the important topics you need as a front-end developer. During our lessons I'll share foundational knowledge, in your free time you'll practice the practical application with appropriate exercises from me.
The curriculum* looks like this:
Module 1: The Developer Foundation (2 hours)
Here I explain everything about how the internet works, the command line, important tools for frontend developers and help you get your computer ready for working as a developer.
Module 2: User interfaces (10 hours)
HTML and CSS. Heard of them? In this module, you'll learn how to use them to design user interfaces and implement them optimally for different devices. Responsive Design, CSS variables/functions and BEM will be as familiar to you as Flexbox and Grid.
Module 3: Programming with JavaScript (10 hours)
In this module we will do some real programming for the first time, at least what a frontend developer considers programming. HTML and CSS are not considered programming. At the end of the module you will be able to speak JavaScript as a native language and explain array methods, classes, prototypes, functions and variables to your friends.
Module 4: Using React Skillfully (10 hours)
React is used to build the big and complicated pages of the Internet. That's why this word appears in almost all job postings. We'll look at React in detail, discuss Functional and Class Components, React Hooks, Routers, Context, State, Props, JSX, and much more.
Module 5: And now with TypeScript (4 hours)
TypeScript is JavaScript on steroids. Almost every developer in the world has caught on to this by now, and you can't miss out. Fortunately, it doesn't take long to get the hang of this if your JavaScript foundation is sufficient. We'll take another look at modules 3 and 4 through the TypeScript lens.
Module 6: Final Project (2 hours)
Congratulations, you've made it. You have enough knowledge to venture into your first applications. But those are only half the battle. If you want to get hired as a front-end developer, words on paper are not enough. You need challenging, creative and cleverly solved projects in your portfolio. I'll help you find a suitable project, plan it, document it and publish it on GitHub.
---
II. KNOWLEDGE BOOSTER
You are already a bit more advanced or want to repeat and deepen a certain topic? No problem. I can give you more knowledge on all topics from my "From Zero to Hero" program and give you tasks in different difficulty levels.
The following buzzwords as a suggestion:
HTML (HTML5, DOM, Input, Form, CORS) | CSS (Variables, Functions, Root, Flexbox, Grid, Position) | JavaScript (Variables, Functions, Classes, ProtoType, Object Oriented Programming, Functional Programming, NPM, Node, Testing with Jest) | React (Functional and Class Components, React Hooks, Router, Context, State, Props, JSX) | TypeScript | Git | JSON
---
III. PAIR PROGRAMMING
Already taking a course or training to become a frontend developer and need extra help? Contact me and I will help you. If you have another request in the area of webdevelopment, just write me as well, I am sure we will find a solution. Attention: I will not do university projects or similar for you. Generally I don't like to work with my students under time pressure. I want to share lasting knowledge and not code a submission head over heels.
---
*If you're wondering how to read the curriculum properly or if it's all set in stone, here's some more info: The curriculum is like the one for your practical car driving test. For example, we need at least 10 hours in Module 2 to go through all the relevant topics. But we could need more for exercises and further explanation.
Reviews
All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Marvin.
Perfect! Marvin ist ein absolut geduldiger Lehrer, der komplexe Inhalte bezüglich JavaScript sehr verständlich und anschaulich kommuniziert. Dank seiner Hilfe konnte ich die Übungen aus meinem "Web Development" Bootcamp effektiv vor- und nacharbeiten, so dass ich auch zukünftig davon profitieren kann. Die Organisation der Unterrichtseinheiten (via Webcam) war super einfach und flexibel. Ich kann ihn wirklich wärmstens empfehlen!
- Pünkltich, freundlich und zuvorkommend.Marvin's response :

Hi, im Riccardo,
Marvin is a great guy and teacher, every time happy with a great energy, very motivated and friendly who guide me into the new experience of the code.. I never had experience before and he prepare for me every-time new personalised simplified lessons to understand better the concepts and helped me with my Web Developer School. I had a beautiful experience taking lesson from him. Recommended. :) R.Marvin ist ein super sympathischer Typ, der sehr viel Zeit und Geduld aufbringen musste um mir JavaScript und React nahezubringen.
Er konnte mir mit einfachen Beispielen komplizierte Zusammenhänge verdeutlichen und hat mir dabei geholfen Verständnisprobleme während einer Umschulung zu beseitigen, so dass ich diese erfolgreich abschließen konnte.
Deswegen - und weil Marvin mir immer wieder Mut gemacht hat, auch wenn es mal nicht so gut geklappt hat, kann ich ihn als Superprof absolut empfehlen und werde mich wieder an ihn wenden, wenn ich in Zukunft mal etwas nicht verstehe!See more recommendations
