About Dexter
I'm a passionate and experienced tutor who has been teaching for over 10 years. I have a degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Brown University, and I have worked in the computer industry for over 28 years, including at Google, YouTube, Adobe, and several Silicon Valley startups. I am patient and encouraging, and I always strive to help my students succeed. I am also a great listener, and I am always willing to answer questions and provide support. In addition to teaching Roblox, I teach: Scratch, Python, JavaScript, Java, C/C++, and Arduino programming. I worked in the Peace Corps as a volunteer high school computer teacher. In this role, I taught students how to program and also helped them develop their problem-solving and critical thinking skills. I am confident that my experience in the Peace Corps has made me a better tutor.

Does your kid love Roblox and want to learn how to program?
Or do they need some help grasping Computer Science concepts at the High School or College level?
I can teach them!
I specialize in helping students new to programming but I am happy to have intermediate or advanced students too. I have a proven track record of success in helping students of all ages and abilities learn these skills. I am confident that I can help your child achieve success in programming.
The programming skills your kid will learn in one language are transferable to other programming languages they might want to learn.
Every student learns differently and I tailor my teaching style to each student's individual needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

Perfect! Dexter is delightful.
He has been working with my kids on not only the technical aspects of bringing their technology-focused products to life, but also on helping them understand the project management side of moving the spark of an idea closer to becoming a real thing.
Dexter is highly personable, knowledgeable, and patient. He's also down-to-earth and has a just-right tone for each kid that he's working with.
Highly recommend working with Dexter!See more reviews

Dexter was on the founding team for the Google Developer Academy program, which helps Googlers transition to Software and Developer Relations Engineering roles. In this capacity, Dexter oversaw the creation of our first technical curriculum. The pilot was a success and we are now in our fourth year! We couldn't have done it without Dexter's expertise in pedagogy best practices and his knack for demistifying complex topics.
Since the pilot in 2018, Dexter and I have become friends, and I've had the pleasure to see him apply his love for education in many different contexts and with a broad range of learners. Dexter is incredibly patient, a great listener, and can make any student feel supported and encouraged throughout their learning journeys. He is the type of teacher that will instill confidence and curiosity in any student, and excels at making technical concepts approachable and fun. Book your session with him today and you will be so happy you did!10/10!! My 9 year old wanted private 1:1 help with Roblox Studio. I couldn’t find anyone locally to come to our house to help him locally. I did some internet searching and found Dexter! Dexter is exactly the teacher my son was looking for and needed! He has far exceeded my expectations! My son loves working with Dexter and is learning a lot. Happy son, happy mom! Dexter is very patient with my son and answers all his questions. He is able to explain things in a way a 9 year old can understand. Dexter challenges my son to learn more and grow! I feel very lucky to have found Dexter to help my son!
Having the pleasure of knowing Dexter for many years, it would not surprise me that he would be instructing others on any number of subjects. His patience and easy nature is what sharing knowledge is about. He possesses the gift of instruction, his ability to explain and make the subject matter clear and understandable from beginning to the end is not commonly found. I hope that others take advantage and experience this for themselves.
