Programming tutor for kids and adults
A programming tutor can help with a first game in Scratch, school computer science or olympiad problems, and teach an adult Python from scratch. Compare tutors by the languages they teach, prices and reviews — or give the student's age, goal and level in an order, and tutors will respond.
Programming tutors
How much programming lessons cost
What affects the price
Language and difficulty
Visual Scratch blocks for a younger schoolchild and C++ algorithms for an olympiad call for very different preparation from the teacher.
Student's age and lesson length
Younger children do well with a shorter lesson, while adults often prefer longer lessons with practice, so the price is set per lesson or per hour.
Working on your project
If the lessons are built around your own bot, website or game, the teacher has to work through someone else's code in advance — that takes extra time.
Code review between lessons
Comments on code the student wrote on their own and answers to questions between lessons may be included in the price or paid separately.
Online or in person
An online lesson with screen sharing and a lesson with the teacher coming to your home usually have different prices.
Prices come from specialists' profiles on Nexperity and update automatically. You agree the final price with the specialist directly.

How to choose a programming tutor
- 1
Who the tutor has taught
Kids starting from scratch, schoolchildren before an olympiad and adults learning for work need different approaches. Ask whom the teacher works with most often, and in which programming languages.
- 2
Projects in the portfolio
Look in the portfolio at the games, websites and apps the students or the teacher have made. You can also ask for links to the teacher's code repositories.
- 3
Who writes the code in a lesson
In the first lesson, pay attention: it is a good sign when the student types the code and the teacher only hints at where to look for the bug.
- 4
Plan and practice
Ask whether there will be a plan from the basics to a project of the student's own, and whether the student will get practice tasks between lessons.
- 5
Code editor and Git
Ask whether the tutor will teach working in a code editor and with Git, as in real projects, or whether every lesson stays in an online sandbox.
What to put in the order
Who will study: you or a child, and the student's age

Questions about Nexperity
How Nexperity works — separately for clients and for specialists
For clients
Nothing. Searching for specialists, sending requests, posting orders and receiving responses are free.
No. You agree the price and the payment method with the specialist and pay them directly. Nexperity does not take payments and is not a party to your deal.
A request goes to one specialist — from their profile. An order is posted for everyone: specialists send you responses, and you choose which one to accept.
How the specialist will do the task, a price — fixed, a range, hourly or “on request” — and, optionally, an estimated timeline.
30 days from publication: all that time it is visible in the feed and specialists can send responses. The exact end date and time are shown on the order in your account. From that moment the order is closed and a response can no longer be accepted. You can cancel it earlier, and if no specialist turned up, post a new one.
Yes: you can hide your name and photo in an order. The anonymity lasts until acceptance — the specialist whose response you accept sees your name and photo. The task description is public: anyone visiting the site can read it.
Only after acceptance — when you accept their response or they accept your request. And only the contacts you chose to show.
After acceptance you see the contacts the specialist chose to show, and they see the ones you chose. You can also message on Nexperity when the chat is on: on an order you decide that, on a direct request the specialist does.
Once the work is done, mark the order or the collaboration completed in your account — then you can say whether you recommend the specialist. A review can only be left for a collaboration that happened through Nexperity: one per specialist, which you can change or delete at any time.
For specialists
Nothing for now: this is the free period, and no subscription is needed yet. Nexperity takes no commission on deals — you settle with the client directly.
Sign up, fill in your specialist profile and add your services — each with a category, a description and a price. Once the profile is complete, it appears in search and on the category pages.
Two ways: clients send you requests from your profile, which you can accept or decline; and you see public orders in your categories in your account and can respond to them.
You describe how you will do the task and give a price and, optionally, a timeline. The client compares responses and accepts one.
Contacts set to “Public” are visible to everyone on your profile. A client sees contacts set to “After connection” once you accept their request or they accept your response. “Hidden” ones are not revealed in new connections: a contact already revealed to a client stays visible to them.
Each service has a fixed price, a range, an hourly rate or “on request”. Prices show on your profile and in search results, and you agree the final price with the client.
Through search and the category pages of your services. The order depends on your clients' reviews — how many of them recommend you — and in search also on how well your services match the query.
A photo, a description, your region and way of working — online or in person — your contacts and a portfolio: photos of your work, each with a short caption if you like.
A client leaves a review after completed work, and only for a collaboration through Nexperity: they say whether they recommend you and may add a few words. Each client counts once, however many times you work together.
