    “Yes, Ruth has a high level of technical expertise. But what most distinguishes her from all the other trainers I have worked with is that she figures out who the user is as a unique person.Ruth knows that each of us thinks differently, works differently and so we learn how to use our computers differently.”~ Leonard O’Brian,

    “I have been working with Ruth since I was a beginner in 1993. My son kept telling me how easy it was to use a Mac and I felt very stupid for not being able to learn it by myself.I can’t believe how much I have learned and am still learning with Ruth’s regular training. My young adult children are amazed at how much I know and their friends think I am a “techy”.~ Elaine Kates,

    “I had never used iChat before and really didn’t even know what it was or how it worked. Ruth walked me through the setup, which was very simple, and suddenly there we were…face-to-face….well, kind of. Ruth was able to see my computer and make changes and teach me how to do things. It was fantastic!This was a great way to get the help I needed from afar and certainly not necessary to have Ruth physically sitting right with me.”- Roxanne Haughey

    Self-Paced, Self-Study Video Training

    with the Mac to School Virtual Classroom

    Self-Paced, Self-Study Video Training is designed for people who prefer to learn on their own, at their own pace.

    The Virtual Classroom provides you with hours of bite-sized video lessons that teach you everything from the basics to secrets and shortcuts on all of the popular Mac programs so that you become proficient with all the things YOU want to do with your Mac.

    You can watch the videos over and over again, pausing and replaying them so that you can try the skills being taught.

    And new lessons are added every month so you’ll never run out of things to learn!

    In addition to the video lessons, you’ll get step-by-step written notes and a Quick Quiz to reinforce everything you’ve learned.

    And, in the same way that you can raise your hand and ask the teacher a question in a real class, you can email me with any questions you have and I’ll answer them in a monthly You Asked, I Answer video lesson.
