I am pretty quick at picking up new software, but Excel is a total language of its own. The 2 hrs that I spent with McKenzey was DEFINITELY worth it! The hm office that she teaches out of is very welcoming and user friendly. I highly recommend her for any level of tutoring, due to her patience and listening to what the "student" needs and wants to achieve. THANKS McKenzey! I just had my 2nd session, and I have gathered so much more information and feel much more comfortable working within Excel! McKenzey has a "knack" for "seeing" what the student "needs" and wants to "achieve". McKenzey's method of teaching allows the student to work at his/her comfort level. After each session, she has promptly followed up with an email outlining what was reviewed and even HOMEWORK, to further practice and apply what was learned during our session. Thanks McKenzey for all of your help and looking forward to our next session.


Aigul J. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey did such an incredible job when proofreading my papers and helping me with the personal statements for colleges. Her constructive feedback helped me to write an excellent personal statement, which helped me to get into an Ivy League Institution. Highly recommend!


Ricki R. from Bothell, WA

My son had worked with McKenzey for about a year, and he was so thankful for all her help. He always enjoyed his time with her. She was so patient with him and found ways to help him learn at his speed. He said he never felt pressured and felt that she cared about his learning. He is looking forward to future sessions with her. I am so glad that we found her!!


Amy M. from Kirkland, WA

I brought an oddball challenge (trying to figure out why VLookUps kept bombing out when using Salesforce.com extract data even though it looked clean to the human eye). McKenzey put the data into Notepad and pointed out that there was hidden code in it and showed me how to use "Clean and Trim" to clean the data before using VLookUps so they'd flow. I am grateful!


Carole K. from Bainbridge Island, WA

I have been working with McKenzey for several months and cannot say enough positive things about her teaching skills and willingness to "go the extra mile". She has patiently talked me through technical issues (she set up a system that allows her to access my computer during our sessions), and she is genuinely interested in helping me accomplish my goals. If you are looking for a good tutor, you would be lucky to secure some of McKenzey's time.


Kathy L. from Bothell, WA

McKenzey has been a gem. We feel very grateful to have found her. She is an excellent instructor, very talented and conscientious. Always quick to respond to emails. After my husband met her he said "I don't know where you found her but good job!"


Claudia M. from Everett, WA

McKenzey patiently spent 2 hours today providing clear and practical training on Excel. I have VERY rudimentary knowledge of this critical business program. McKenzey quickly identified those features of Excel training that would help me the most. I returned to the office and was able to immediately implement several of her suggestions. I am looking forward to our future lessons and highly recommend McKenzey's services.


Eileen Z. from Bellevue, WA

Really enjoyed our time with McKenzey. She is an excellent tutor and really knows her subject. She is a delight to work with and we look forward to our future sessions with her. We are preparing an art book of my husband's paintings using Photo Shop and we can tell that this book will be outstanding with the guidance and help of McKenzey. She is patient, thorough and knowledgeable. Really glad we found this web site and this tutor.


Rupa P. from Seattle, WA

I hired McKenzey to proofread my dissertation document so anyone can read and understand it. Words cannot express how thankful how I was when she responded right away and was so reliable about her time estimates and workload to complete in a very short timeframe. Basically I wrote to her on Monday and had everything I needed by Saturday, even though I had to send her the document in 3 batches. Highly recommended as personable and able to get the job done right! Thanks McKenzey! I'll be recommending your services to other graduate students in the future.


Cathy L. from Kenmore, WA

McKenzey is meant to teach. Not only has she helped me learn, she has instilled confidence in my capabilities. Very professional and yet personal. Comfortable working environment. A++.


Cherie U. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey has a willingness to help her students beyond just the subject matter. She is patient and insightful, and genuinely cares about your success. I'm glad I chose to work with her!


Laila M. from Mountlake Terrace, WA

McKenzey was ready to teach me what I needed to learn in order to get the skills needed for our website. She focuses her attention on the skills required to move forward. Easy to follow, Easy to understand, HANDS-ON tutoring. Love it. Could not be happier.


Nathan P. from Woodinville, WA

I originally planned just 2 or 3 sessions with McKenzey, but ended up taking nearly 4 months by my choice! Once I observed that she is very organized with projects to give you, helpful aids set up in a Sharepoint file for you to access, and has extensive real world experience, I stayed on with her until I had a better grasp with the entire MS Office Suite. She is friendly and helpful, and her organization clinches the deal.


Tina H. from Kenmore, WA

McKenzey has helped my 1st grader make great progress with reading! She makes each session exciting and engaging which is especially important for a 6 year old. McKenzey was able to assess my daughter's ability and tailor her sessions to be the most effective. After about 4 weeks we received great feedback from my daughter's teacher- "I just want to celebrate with you how much she has grown this last month! All the hard work and time you are all putting in are definitely showing in her reading, writing, and her overall confidence! She came in beaming today in all subjects!"


TRISTA S. from Seattle, WA

I have only taken 3 sessions with Mckenzey, but she has been GREAT!! She is like a computer coach, counselor and financial advisor all in ONE!!! She is patient, makes it fun, puts me at ease about my lack of computer knowledge and has worked around my busy schedule.


Ted L. from Bellevue, WA

This was my first lesson with McKenzey and I couldn't have been more satisfied. She is clearly an expert in Photoshop Elements but was able to tailor the lesson to my skill level so that I am prepared to apply the knowledge gained. I have already scheduled another lesson and plan on continuing.


David B. from Seattle, WA

Excellent teacher. McKenzey has a great set-up for learning (side by side, large screen computers). I look forward to continue learning more with her. I highly recommend her to anyone from beginner to more advanced who wants to improve their skills and comfort level.


Jeannie A. from Kirkland, WA

McKenzey is able to keep me on track while also helping with my random questions that fill in the blanks. She gives great feedback and has a common sense approach to teaching and learning. I give her a spectacular rating with top points, but don't really want to share her quite yet! She's a great communicator and gives email reviews of the info we covered so I can practice after tutoring. I long to be as brilliant as McKenzey!


Ann B. from Kirkland, WA

McKenzey is a extremely knowledgeable about Photoshop. She is easy-going, personable, and very professional. Her office is very thoughtfully setup to accommodate students and learning. She can offer a range of information from the very basics of Photoshop to advanced and in-depth nuances of the program. Very glad I contacted her!


Jeffrey W. from Seattle, WA

I had an easy time finding excellent instruction using WyzAnt. My tutor was professional, knowledgeable, well-equipped for the task at hand (dual-monitor computer) and patient. She tailored lessons to my skill level and ensured I grasped what was taught. I will definitely seek to gain from her services in the event I require additional instruction.


Calvin B. from Skykomish, WA

McKenzey is a cracker-jack instructor of InDesign skills; she's extraordinarily patient, clear, thorough and more in her lesson feedback on the web.


Angie C. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey has been great! I feel fortunate to have her as my teacher for graphics and HTML. I knew nothing about graphics prior to my first class. McKenzey has the ability to teach in a manner that I was able to understand and take the information and apply it to projects that I am working on. I feel comfortable with the basics in 3 lessons and can't wait to continue on my graphics journey with her. I highly recommend McKenzey, you will not be disappointed.


Suzan B. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey is a wonderfully skilled tutor for anyone interested in learning Excel. She is organized, good-humored and extremely patient! Her deep understanding of the program allows her to scale her lesson plans for any level of student so that the information is delivered in an efficient and manageable fashion. Her home/office is set up with 2 huge screens so that she can show you what is happening on her screen while you can try it out on your own. Very Cool! My favorite tutoring characteristic of McKenzey is her ability to help you see all of the multiple ways that Excel can be used whether for personal or business purposes. Her enthusiasm is totally contagious and truly makes learning Excel fun! I highly recommend her.


Duane G. from Bellevue, WA

There is no shortage of people who want to be your tutor. If you choose McKenzey, you won't regret it. Simple as that.


Patrick D. from Seattle, WA

Complete a presentation and gain recommendations on formatting, design and use of PPT to communicate desired objectives and content. Very helpful.


Carol M. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey was clearly an experienced Excel tutor; examples were well-prepared in advance and forwarded to me following the session. She tailored the 2-hour session to my needs, patiently allowing my questions to follow their own path. Her office set-up is well worth the drive; I'd recommend the one-on-one on site over the remote tutorial.


Michael B. from Lynnwood, WA

McKenzey was flexible with her teaching format, not only begin demonstrating rudimentary skills, but also help resolve real time entry/operation issues relating to my work environment. Very cool.


Dan O. from Kenmore, WA

I was struggling with some last minute Excel charting required for a work meeting. McKenzey scheduled me during her off time to accommodate my rushed time frame. Then even followed up with more suggestions afterwards. Much appreciated. Her home office setup also very accommodating with a double keyboard and shared screen setup. I would contact and recommend her for tutoring anytime. Thanks!


Cheryl W. from Everett, WA

I enhanced my knowledge of cell and worksheet formats, the use of functions and was introduced to Pivot Tables.


Laurie L. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey explained all the functions on the "ribbon." She encouraged me to practice to be sure I had a good basic understanding of it. She is very patient and is willing to help you develop the skills required to apply specifically to your personal learning goals.


Kristi M. from Burlingame, CA

I was on deadline to create a corporate newsletter, and McKenzey provided a combination of tutoring and graphic production to help me create a modern, beautiful newsletter I can be proud of among my peers. She is not only a wizard of all things graphic design and Microsoft, but she is kind, patient and truly goes the extra mile for you. I am thrilled to have a “secret weapon” (aka McKenzey) to help me take on additional projects and move forward in my career.


Christopher F. from Edmonds, WA

She does an amazing job. My son is very happy with her. She goes above and beyond when she is working with my son.


Lisa T. from Jacksonville, FL

McKenzey taught me Adobe Illustrator in such a way that was actually extremely easy to understand. I'm looking forward to our next lesson. So grateful to have chosen McKenzey for a tutor!


Holly S. from Bellevue, WA

To be honest, I don't know how I survived at my job prior to working with McKenzey! Her expertise, broad range of knowledge and calm yet efficient teaching style is a rare combo in a tutor. I've learned more in our short time together than I did taking TWO continuing ed college courses in the evenings for 8 hours per week for 6-8 weeks! She not only has taught me skills to do my job better and more efficiently, but has also helped my company with some major projects that I am still not 100% capable of doing. I truly cannot say enough good things about her. She is definitely a great find!


Jennifer M. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey was calm and patient and came prepared. We look forward to seeing how our son's handwriting and spelling improve.


Jill B. from Bothell, WA

McKenzey has been helping me develop a spreadsheet for tracking income and expenses for my business. She has taught me so much and is such a wonderful resource to have.


Emily B. from Tualatin, OR

I'm a busy professional/independent contractor with little time to improve my brand image. In just a few hours, McKenzey completed a presentation that I've been working on for three years. I wish I found her sooner! I'll hire her to help with all of my marketing. She's patient, professional, current in her design work without being trendy, and provided valuable consumer insight I would have been unable to get if I hired marketing assistance within my industry. Highly recommend!


MONICA W. from Houston, TX

A great way to face your fears with Illustrator, McKenzey is great at helping build confidence in an unknown field! She has helped my daughter very well.


Candis E. from Seattle, WA

McKenzey helped with a problem I've had for a very long time with Excel. The issue was overwhelming to me, and one I'd tried numerous times to straighten out on my own with no success. What a relief to find WyzAnt and McKenzey. She is so patient, knowledgeable and seems to know the answer to all of my questions. The best part is that she didn't just "fix" the problem, but she taught me how to do it myself. My first session was over a couple of hours ago, and I'm already looking forward to the next. Thank you Wyzant and thank you McKenzey.
