Francesca
Real World Training in Excel and other Business Tools
Being the daughter of a 40-year tenured teacher, I like to think I inherited some of the characteristics of my mother when it comes to helping others learn. I enjoy helping others grasp concepts and take the time to learn each and every person's style of learning before I begin working with them. Throughout my high school and college life, I was always the "go-to" person when one of my classmates had trouble understanding the material. Since then, I have worked in numerous industries includin... Read more

Abram
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Adobe CC
After teaching in a preschool for 11 years, I decided that I wanted to be more creative, and more independent. When I was younger, I did quite a bit of graffiti. So the graphic design field seemed like a natural transition for me. Since leaving my teaching position, I've done graphics for DePaul University, Cambridge Educational Services, and The Onion News Network. I'm now a freelance graphic designer, specializing in Adobe CC software such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, AfterEffects, ... Read more

Marcus
"No," scolded Yoda. "Do, or do not. There is no try."
I have taught college level chemistry from 2010 to 2015. I choose to teach based on my love of chemistry and mathematics in large part due to the actions of Mrs. Terry Peartree and Mrs. Mary Kelly, my high school chemistry and calculus teachers. These educators encouraged my inquisitive nature and taught me that science is about asking questions and challenging assumptions, because the outcome could lead to new and exciting experiences. I believe that learning does not stop when you leave the... Read more
