Android Development Computing, GCSE/A levels Expert (PhD)
Every student is different. To teach a student, you have to first analyse the situation of the student. What state they are in, what is their level of understanding and how much they can absorb at a time. Once you have an understanding of these, learning is so enjoyable for a student. I have 15 years+ of teaching experience at different levels. I have helped many students to polish their expertise in different subjects at different levels. Starting from the school level, I have worked on the basics, which helped them to grasp wider skills. At the college level, I helped them manage their skills...

I arranged to meet with Micheal via email, he replied promptly to my questions and explained what he was able to offer, then arranged a lesson at a mutually agreeable time. Micheal was always prompt each lesson and very knowledgeable about the area I required assistance with. He explained concepts clearly and succinctly; he really knows a lot about programming concepts and it was easy to keep up with him. I am really happy with my time with Micheal.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

What if I don't like my first Android Development lesson?

Your peace of mind is our priority. With our First Lesson Guarantee, if you're not completely satisfied with your initial lesson, we'll find you another tutor for free. We're committed to helping you find the perfect match.

Do I need to own an Android phone?

No, you don't! While having a physical device is helpful for testing, it's not a requirement to start. Android Studio, the official development environment, includes a powerful emulator that can simulate various Android phones and tablets directly on your computer.

I'm a complete beginner. Is Android Development tutoring for me?

Absolutely. Our tutors love working with beginners! They can start with the absolute basics, from setting up your development environment to writing your first line of Kotlin or Java, guiding you every step of the way.

How much do Android Development tutors cost?

The cost of tutoring varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can browse tutor profiles to see their individual rates and find an expert who fits your budget.

What equipment do I need to start learning Android Development?

All you need is a reasonably modern computer (Windows, Mac, or Linux) capable of running Android Studio. Your tutor can guide you through the installation and setup process in your first lesson.

Which programming language will I learn: Kotlin or Java?

Most modern Android development is done in Kotlin, as it's Google's recommended language. However, many tutors are also proficient in Java. You can discuss your goals with your tutor to decide on the best language for you to learn.

Can a tutor help me with my existing app project?

Yes! Our tutors are perfect for this. Whether you're stuck on a specific bug, need help implementing a new feature, or want to prepare your app for the Play Store, a tutor can provide the expert guidance you need.

How long does it take to learn Android Development?

The timeline varies for everyone. With a personal tutor, you can learn much faster than on your own. You'll focus on the most important concepts and avoid common pitfalls, helping you build your first simple app in just a few weeks or months.

How do I find the right Android Development tutor?

You can browse our list of expert tutors, read their profiles, check student reviews, and even message them beforehand to discuss your learning goals. Finding the right fit is easy.

What is 'Gradle' and why does it seem so complicated?

Gradle is the build system used for Android apps. It can seem intimidating, but its job is to compile your code and package it into a runnable app. A tutor can demystify Gradle, helping you understand build scripts and troubleshoot common errors.

How can a tutor help me design an app for different screen sizes?

This is a common challenge. Tutors can teach you the principles of responsive design using modern tools like ConstraintLayout and Jetpack Compose, ensuring your app looks great on everything from small phones to large tablets.
