Experience Summary
I began my software training career in May 2000. With eight years of classroom, and small group based training, the remaining years have been primarily one-on-one tutoring. I currently teach at UNR Extended Studies and Washoe County Admin.
I've taught every version in the Microsoft Office suite, from Office 97 through the current version (Office 365)
Having used and taught the Adobe Creative Suite, I can also offer basic introductory assistance with those programs.
Custom tutoring allows us to cover anything from the most basic skills, such as how to properly double click and the difference between a right and left mouse click, to more advanced skills such as using styles in formatting Word documents, or creating and using Macros.
Excel basics include entering and editing data, creating simple formulas and functions. Intermediate and advanced features include multi-argument and nested functions, pivot tables and charts.
Teaching Style
My students set the learning pace. I cover topics relevant and specific to their needs.
My Hobbies
I'm an avid outdoor enthusiast, and enjoy rock climbing, camping, hiking, and canoeing.
