John: La Habra tutor
Certified Tutor
Hello! My name is John Marquardt.
I have been a computer science teacher for the last four years at the high school level. I have taught multiple levels of computer science to students in grades 6 - 12. I love teaching coding and IT concepts. My students have had great success rates with the AP CSP and AP CSA exams over the last 4 years.
I love helping students find lightbulb moments and enjoy watching them gain an outlet for their creative endeavors. I have gotten to watch students create games, animations, music, and great experiences with computer science. I really enjoy watching those students who entered my class with no background experience find something that they can call their own and be passionate about.
I work with students of all abilities and meet them where their current knowledge lies. I approach tutoring with the intention to first understand where the student is, then understand where they need to arrive, and finally create a measured approach to get them there.
If you are ready to get to work, then I look forward to working with you!

I love spending time with my wife (And soon my son!), learning new things, going to church, spending time with friends, playing slow pitch softball with my brothers, playing chess, and hanging out with our bunnies!
