Lessons For and From a Tutoring Client

Filed under: What's New! — Ruth @ 12:01 pm

My, but I do get some interesting feedback whenever I mention my cat, Snowflake. :) But I must restrain myself some weeks for the sake of those who would rather I talk about other things. Got some nice comments too, on my flag-waving.

I had a private tutoring client yesterday afternoon, and will have another session with her this afternoon. This is a lot of fun. Especially starting to put together a power point.

They say that one way to discover your special skills and gifts is to notice when you enjoy your work the most. Well, I sure do have a great time when I am showing someone else little tricks and methods at their computer that they didn’t know before. I find that quite fulfilling. So I am encouraged that my plan to offer my projected course this fall is a good move. I’m going to enjoy doing that!

But I also discovered an outright scam she had fallen for. She got fleeced!

I had a little shock though, when I showed her my aloe-vera-and-handy-herbs site on her laptop. I had no idea that Internet Explorer made it look so distorted! Not at all as nice as in Firefox. I will have to take that in hand tomorrow and see if I can fix it. I had just got a nice long page on mint up on Saturday night, and thought I was coming along well.
