MS Word, Excel, Power Pt. & Internet at your pace (beg to intermed)

I am a licensed, certified Business Education teacher with 20+ years of experience. I have taught middle school, high school and adult students, in both individual and class settings. I enjoy teaching general computer skills along with MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint. My best qualities are my kindness and patience. I will teach at your level and your pace (no speedy people!... this is my niche). I will also show you how to insert pictures and print documents. I will make sure you spell and grammar check at all times! In addition, I have helped people draft their resumes and cover letters. I will have a handout for most of my tutoring classes. *I also teach beginning piano lessons. Price adjustment for piano lessons vs. computer apps.

Microsoft Excel

I enjoy showing students how to the "function" key (take totals, averages, highs and lows) for a column or a string of numbers. It's fun to see their faces when the answer pops up so quickly. I especially enjoy creating charts and graphs, making sure the correct columns of data are set up and then choosing colors and styles to impress!

In addition, using the "sort" and "filter" features, students quickly learn how to get information in the format that they are looking for. This is a... Read More

General Computer

In addition to MS Office, you will learn how to navigate the Internet, create an email account and add attachments by downloading files.

You will know how to use CDs and DVDs for music or shows. You will also get to know YouTube to watch current events. We may install programs (or games such as Solitaire and other mind games) on your local hard drive... Read More

Microsoft Word

MS Word is a powerful word processor. In school it is mainly used for research papers. In this case, students learn how to add automatic page numbering, automatic "running titles," turn on double spacing and change margins. In addition, the use of tables, short-cut keys, and adding clip art, photos and/or graphs from Excel are also included as one becomes more advanced.

I teach according to the National Business Standards for business documents. While teaching business letters or personal... Read More

Microsoft PowerPoint

MS Power Point is software that helps you create a slide presentation. This is the place to be creative, yet organized.

You will learn how to create a slide, add a slide, insert bullet points, insert pictures or clipArt, and add color and change font size and style.

Adding movement to the slide show means adding "Custom Animation" (or having bullets slide in one at a time) and "Slide Transition" (having one slide "dissolve" into the next slide). You may turn on an auto-timer... Read More

Piano

I taught piano lessons for six years while taking beginner to intermediate piano lessons for 12 years. I used the Thompson, Schawm and "Finger Power" books and was teaching up to 21 students at one point. My advanced teacher was an instructor at the University of Delaware and entered me in the University's program when I was a sophomore in high school. I played three pieces for a panel of judges: "Puppet's Complaint" by Cesar Franck, "Minuet and Trio" by Mozart, and "Sea Piece" by Edward MacDowell... Read More
