I won't try to dazzle you with how much I know, but in turn will teach you what you need in order to work effectively with any of these programs. You will learn real-world application of the program features.
And, most importantly, you will learn what you want and need in order to accomplish your goals.

My students have ranged in age from high-school age to 87 years of age.

My approach will take you through learning material that is relevant to your needs, as well as the ins and outs of topics that are important to you. You will become familiar with the "what if's", shortcuts, surprises, and tips that help you work smarter, faster and confidently in the the knowledge of your newfound skills.

Knowledgable, patient tutor

Chita is patient and kind. She doesn't waste your time on teaching things that you don't want or need to know at that moment, saving you precious time and dollars. Excellent, well spoken teacher. I learned a lot. Thanks!

Great introduction

I have finished my first appointment with Chita and I found her to be very nice and knowledgable, we have created a lesson plan for what can help with my specific needs and I am looking forward to future sessions. She took the time to learn my goals and take a look at my skill level to better understand how I can improve, and is tailoring her tutoring to my specific work needs.

Excellent teacher -- highly recommend

I am learning basic design software for the very first time in preparation for returning to school in a new field. Chita is extremely knowledgeable and has a great and very clear way of explaining things that could easily be overwhelming. She is patient and warm and has already helped me enormously in the few sessions we have had together so far.

Deb, 6 lessons with Chita

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Chita was very personable and easy to work with. She had to undo a lot of my mistakes before we started. Once that was completed, everything else went smoothly. She knew what she was doing and was able to convey that easily.

Pleasant but no-nonsense tutor

Chita Hunter taught me more about formatting books in one hour than I learned in the couple of years working on my own. While reviewers of my books correctly criticized their readability on iPads, they cited the wrong reasons for their correct criticism. Chita showed me how reading fixed layout eBooks in landscape view can be more like watching a single TV screen than reading a printed book with a fixed gutter at the binding of opposing pages. Also, the leading of type as well as the best font is very important in giving each page enough air to avoid a congested appearance. Chita is a pleasant, no-nonsense tutor that I highly recommend for problems involving Adobe Indesign.

Great at working and understanding my needs

I enjoyed working with Chita. She was very knowledgeable about my issue and was able to help me understand how to better use the programs that I was using. Chita was able to help me navigate Photo Shop that will allow me to work indepedently in the future. If I have issue in the future, I would differently use Chita again.
