Computer Tutor, Design, Photoshop, Video Editing, eBay

I am a working professional interested in helping students learn how to think creatively in graphic design. I will provide a personalized outline for each student, complete with assignments to insure that students have understood and can apply their new skills.

I have over 12 years of experience with photography and graphics software. As a Graphic Manager and Project coordinator, I have trained many associates in the following software applications: Gerber Graphics Omega 3.0, Adobe Dreamweaver CS4, Adobe Acrobat 9.0, Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Fireworks CS4, Sony Vegas Platinum 11, Microsoft Office Professional and Home version 2007 and 2010. Web applications include Wordpress and setting up eCommerce sites with PayPal.

My strategy is to speak with my students prior to meeting in order that I have the most relevant training available for them. I create a syllabus that is on target for the what they are looking for and instill them with marketable skills.

My goal is to make the learning experience fun, exciting, memorable, and enable the student to be confident in their ability to work with the programs learned.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel is such a versatile program. I concentrate on the structure of the program, the tools and how to use them to create reports for presentations and analysis.

After speaking with the student and finding their level of expertise, I work with them to strengthen their weaknesses and move them forward.

To work with Microsoft Excel efficiently, the student must learn the basic functions. The first step is where the basics are presented (or reviewed). We examine each... Read More

HTML

This course will examine the basics of HTML code and enable students to be able to write HTML code in their web pages.

Adobe Photoshop

I have more than 19 years experience with Adobe Photoshop. I teach it with a print, video and design perspective.

This study starts by presenting basic elements of photography: composition, lighting and capture techniques. By understanding these elements it makes the tools of the program easier to learn and make more sense.

In Photoshop we take digital images, determine the appropriate format for the chosen purpose, edit the image using Photoshop tools, size the image and... Read More

Web Design

Web design is composed of many elements which are brought together to create a visual presentation on the internet. When I teach, I present each of the elements and then show the student how to bring them together to create their own web site.

My studies include developing a concept and carrying it out until completion. The study includes: all about domains, composition basics, fonts, colors, graphics, photographs, video, and writing content. The web site will be created using Wordpress... Read More

Video Production

When I teach video, I draw upon my 18+ years of experience from creating special event videos, weddings, and commercial shorts.

For my video teaching I include shooting, editing and distribution. The elements to create great video and multimedia products includes: planning, outlining, scheduling, scripting, working with talent, location shooting, lighting, the audio elements, about copyrights and video recording formats.

Once video is recorded, study continues with digital... Read More

Photography

My photography course explains the three basic controls which creates a photograph. Digital photography will be examined in detail so that the student has a clear understanding of how images are created, and how to control the quality of the images for printing and on the web.
I have been a photographer for 50 years and can easily draw from my professional experience to relay photographic concepts to the student. Once the study is complete, students will be able to apply what they learned... Read More

Desktop Publishing

As a Graphic Manager and Project coordinator, I have trained many associates in software applications. Over 7 years' experience with web site creation using Adobe Dreamweaver, Word Press, Microsoft Publisher, Corel Paint Shop Pro and basic HTML. I have a strategy that I use that helps facilitate learning.

The first step is to understand structure of what you are creating, doing your research, outlining your project and then creating the materials using various applications.

Dreamweaver

Having actively used Adobe Dreamweaver for the past 7 years, I have been able to train associates on how to create web sites from creation to completion. My approach is systematic so that a student learns essential concepts quickly.

The best way to learn Dreamweaver is by starting with the domain registration, and then creating the pages for the site. Making sure that SEO (search engine optimization) is met.

My personal experiences with SEO help me relay to students what... Read More
