Q. Would you come to us?
Yes, no problem.
Q. Can you show me how to work on the kind of project I usually have to, if I provide examples?
Yes, no problem. I don't expect there will be any aspects of your examples I am unfamiliar with but it is best to discuss it briefly with me before-hand.
Q. I am quite proficient at the moment but can you help me identify and fill-in gaps in my knowledge?
Absolutely. That is an important feature of 1-2-1 training: we can do just what you want or need to do.
Q. How far would you go to come to us?
Try me and see. I am prepared to go a long way if I think I can help.
Q. Can I bring my computer to you to help me organise it better and sort out some issues?
Yes.
Q. I need to set up a web site for my business. Can you show me how to do it myself so I can save money and edit it myself
when I need to?
Yes.
Q. Can you help me clarify some issues I am having with several programs in one course?
Yes. Phone me to discuss your list and I will give you an idea how much training I think you might need.
Q. How do I know how much time I need to book given my requirements?
How much time you need depends on three things: how quickly you learn; what your objective is and how much you already know. Firstly discuss it with me by phone. I have been doing this a long time and I can give you a pretty good idea. The chances are I have already come across someone with the same requirements before.
Q. Do you train PC users?
Yes. The programs I teach, with the exception of the Mac Operating System of course, are the same on PC as on Mac.
Q. I am new to Mac but have used a PC. Can you teach me the things I need to know quickly?
No problem.
Q. Do you teach Microsoft Windows Operating System?
Not strictly but I have used it extensively and have been able to help several people learn the basics. The best thing to do is discuss it with me.
Q. I have degree in Fine Art and want to get into to Mac artworking as a job. Can you bring me up to speed on the necessary programs?
Yes, all my courses are taught to professional level. We will also teach you to do things efficiently, confidently, smoothly and from the correct technical perspective as well as teaching you important creative techniques. I would expect you to go away with as much knowledge as any other Mac Designer/Artworker.
Q. Do you train people on the latest hardware and software?
Yes, everything is up to date.
Q. Can you provide me with buying advice?
No problem. I have been using Macs ever since they first came out so I know them inside-out, and I also have a Masters degree in computing.
Q. I am changing jobs. Can you help to objectively assess my portfolio, my Mac skills and provide any necessary training?
No problem. We can also gear the tuition to bettering or adding to your portfolio if it needs it.
Q. I need to able to edit our companies product brochure but I don't need to know how to create it from scratch. Can you help?
Yes. I have trained a lot of people in the same situation so I know exactly what you need.
Q. My boss wants me to learn how to update our web site with new products and specifications. Can you show me how in a couple of days?
Yes, I would teach you to do it using Dreamweaver or whatever content management system you are using. I suggest I first assess your web site and advise you as to the best options.
Q. Do you teach Microsoft Word, Excell and Powerpoint?
I am happy to add them if you ask and design a special course for you. I do teach Apples equivalent programs which go under the collective name iWorks (separately they are called Pages, Numbers and Keynote). Pages is better than Word; Numbers and Keynotes are on a par with Excell and Powerpoint respectively.
