Approved Subjects

Adobe Lightroom

Adobe Lightroom

As a professional photographer and photo editor, I’ve spent years perfecting my workflow using Adobe Lightroom to create striking, high-quality images. I specialize in teaching students how to manage photo libraries, enhance colors, correct exposure, and develop a consistent editing style. My lessons focus on real-world techniques — from portrait and landscape editing to batch processing and exporting for print or web. Whether you’re a beginner learning Lightroom for the first time or an advanced photographer refining your editing style, I’ll help you edit with confidence and creativity.
Adobe Premiere

Adobe Premiere

I teach Adobe Premiere Pro with a structured, hands-on approach focused on real-world results. Students learn timeline organization, cutting techniques, transitions, audio cleanup, color correction, exporting formats, and workflow optimization. I work with beginners building their first projects as well as creators refining professional-level edits. My goal is to help students understand how Premiere works so they can edit confidently and independently long after our sessions.
Hebrew

Hebrew

I am a native Hebrew speaker specializing in practical, real-world Hebrew for conversation, reading, and comprehension. I work with beginners building their foundation as well as intermediate learners improving fluency and pronunciation. Lessons focus on speaking naturally, expanding vocabulary, understanding grammar in context, and gaining confidence in everyday communication. My goal is to help students think in Hebrew rather than translate word by word.
Information Technology

Information Technology

I have more than 10 years of professional IT experience, helping students, professionals, and businesses solve technology challenges and build digital skills. My expertise includes Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, Teams), Windows and Mac operating systems, cloud platforms, and everyday troubleshooting. I specialize in making complex technology simple by breaking it down into clear, practical steps that students can immediately apply. Whether you want to strengthen your computer skills, gain confidence with software tools, or improve productivity at work or school, I provide structured, patient, and results-focused IT tutoring tailored to your goals.
Macintosh

Macintosh

I specialize in practical, real-world Macintosh training tailored to each student’s needs. I teach macOS navigation, system settings, file organization, backups, iCloud integration, security basics, software installation, and performance optimization. I also guide students through troubleshooting common issues, syncing Apple devices, and integrating Macs with Windows systems and cloud platforms. My lessons are structured, hands-on, and focused on building confidence so students understand not just what to click, but why it works.
Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365

I am a Microsoft 365 consultant with over 10 years of experience helping individuals and small businesses use Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Teams effectively and efficiently. I provide structured, practical training designed to improve productivity, organization, and collaboration. My expertise includes email setup and optimization, inbox management systems, calendar organization, Excel formulas and reporting, document formatting, cloud storage (OneDrive), Teams collaboration, and Microsoft 365 account configuration. I also assist with business-level setup including user management, permissions, and security best practices. Lessons are hands-on and customized to your skill level. Whether you are a beginner learning the basics or a professional looking to improve workflow efficiency, I focus on clear instruction and real-world application. References and examples of past work are available upon request. I also offer a free 15-minute consultation to review your goals before we begin.
Microsoft Project

Microsoft Project

With a strong background in IT infrastructure and project management, I have hands-on experience using Microsoft Project to plan, track, and deliver technology and engineering projects. My expertise includes creating project schedules, managing resources, tracking budgets, and building Gantt charts to visualize timelines and dependencies. I’ve managed complex projects involving networking, hardware deployments, and software rollouts, and I train learners to use Microsoft Project step by step for both academic and real-world scenarios. My approach makes the software accessible for beginners while offering advanced tips for professionals looking to optimize their project management skills.
Microsoft Windows

Microsoft Windows

I provide practical, hands-on Microsoft Windows training for both personal and business users. I teach system setup, file organization, security basics, troubleshooting, performance optimization, and cloud integration. Lessons are structured step by step so students understand how their system works and can solve problems independently. My focus is clarity, efficiency, and giving students the confidence to manage their Windows machines on their own.
Photography

Photography

Photography isn’t just about camera settings — it’s about learning how to see. I teach students how to understand light, composition, timing, and storytelling so they can create images with purpose and confidence. My lessons are practical and hands-on. We cover manual mode, exposure control, lens choice, shooting techniques, and real-world scenarios so you fully understand how your camera works instead of relying on auto settings. I work with beginners who want a strong foundation and with more advanced photographers who want to refine their style. I also teach Adobe Lightroom editing, including workflow organization, color correction, and professional finishing techniques so your photos look polished and intentional. Students can view examples of my work at centralparkwest.com. References are available upon request, and I offer a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your goals before we begin.
Web Design

Web Design

I train individuals and business owners to build, optimize, and manage professional WordPress websites from the ground up. Students learn the full process — domain registration, hosting configuration, SSL security, WordPress installation, theme customization, plugin strategy, SEO foundations, and performance optimization. I work with complete beginners launching their first website as well as advanced users who want to improve speed, security, structure, and long-term scalability. Lessons are hands-on and strategic. My goal is not just to help you build a site, but to ensure you fully understand how it works so you can manage, troubleshoot, and grow it independently.

Great tutor

I have no IT background and I was looking to start a wordpress website by myself. I had a great experience taking lessons with Chagai, who is patient and thorough. He is also very honest with his recommendations, explaining the pros and cons of different choices, from plugins to backup plans, and he truly listens to my goals for each session. He's always well-prepared, punctual, organized, and loves to teach. I highly recommend this tutor.

Tutor responded:

Thank you so much—I really appreciate this. It was great working with you, and I’m glad the sessions helped you feel more confident building your site. Wishing you all the best as you keep moving forward.

Super knowledgeable, patient with my ignorance..

He's helping me do exactly what I need right now, that is, getting organized---getting my workflow together. Sent me a good summary of what we accomplished during class. I like that. I believe I'll be working with him for the long-term. Very pleased!

Ani, 1 lesson with Chagai

For the first time....my camera actually makes sense!

Chagai was great! We experienced a little technical difficulties but he hung in there with me, and we jumped into our very first lesson. He provided me with materials to help me continue working on my new skills between now and our next lesson. Keep working with him, and you'll have a great foundation in no time!
