How website tutoring works
When we’ve discussed your goals, we’ll make a plan for educating you on the website design topics that are relevant to you. We will work together on the computer, and using a screen-share program so that I can actually see your screen and guide you, one on one, through the process of building or modifying your website. When I tutor this way, it’s like we’re in the room together.
