Individual training

I think that the time that you spent helping me work through some of the problems I've been having with these programs and applications that I've put on my computer have been very good. You're succinct, you're direct, you're knowledgeable, and I appreciate the patience and in the face of just probably obvious frustration with my inability to grasp things because, you know, being so old. You exhibited patience that are beyond most people's endurance and I appreciate it. Thank you.

Done via Zoom since Boomers and senior adults learn at a different pace than we used to when they we younger.

Using Zoom allows screen sharing and other features and tools. We instruct and then share screen to monitor progress while offering directions and suggestions (show, tell and do).

We break down jargon, show relevancy and benefits, patiently offer practice and repetition, provide notes, cheat sheets and even videos.

I spent a lot of time listening to you ever since I got on to WACI Mondays and...I've learned quite a bit and you guys have really helped a lot of people and you should be very proud of yourselves for having done that.
