Great tutor!
Shirley is an amazing tutor. I started looking for a tutor for my web development class. I couldn't have found a better tutor. Her lessons are well planned out and she always has exercises that go well with the topic you are learning. She helps even you when you're struggling and is always available to email, she responds very promptly. I highly recommend her to anyone.

Very knowlegable about the subject.
She is teaching me basically from ground zero on how to use Adobe Photoshop. She was very good and I look forward to learn more from her. Afterward our meeting she even sent me a paper on what we learned in our first lesson.

Experienced and very knowledgeable
I learned basic techniques and a few complex ones. Shirley has a nice teaching style. I highly recommend her to other students. InDesign is more complicated than it should be, so its an app that screams for a tutor.

Knowledgeable and responsive
Shirley helped me with a book project bringing text from Word into InDesign. She is thoroughly experienced and versed in this, and was responsive to all my questions. She had prepared lesson pages for me, which were very helpful.
