Receive customized instruction in this private, 1:1 tutoring class on a variety of computer technology skills such as typing technique, coding, Google Apps, Microsoft Office, graphic design, video editing, and file management - for academic support and/or personal interests!

In our modern world, technology skills are essential for academic and career success. While some technology skills can be learned naturally, specific instruction on the finer details of various technology topics is often crucial for learners to develop truly proficient skills. Many learners also excel in technology skills and would love the opportunity to refine and improve their skills in certain topics further through the mentorship of an experienced teacher.

This computer/technology weekly tutoring class is designed to be tailored to each individual learner’s needs and interests in partnership with the learner and parent(s). If you are interested in technology tutoring, please message us on Outschool to begin a conversation about the particular skills and topics you would like your learner to focus on. We can tutor learners on one technology skill only OR provide instruction and coaching on a variety of skills over time.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Most of the websites used for tutoring will likely require an account with a username and password. In some cases, parents will need to create the account for their learner. This is the case for Google, Microsoft, Canva, Khan Academy, iMovie (Apple account), and WeVideo. (If any of these are used in class for creating projects.) All of these accounts require an email address, which must be selected and supervised by the parent as a way of giving permission for use. (Parental permission is REQUIRED for learners under age 13.) In other cases, the teacher will create the account and share the username/password with the parent. This is the case for Typing.com and Code.org, which DO NOT require an email address for the username. All instructions regarding logins and account access will be communicated CLEARLY to parents before the website is used, including the link(s) for creating the account and/or logging in. All website accounts must be parent supervised, managed, and monitored. (Especially if the learner is under age 13.) Parent supervision is also recommended when learners search the internet for images or research information to ensure appropriate and accurate searches.
Supply List
Learners will need access to the internet and a laptop or desktop COMPUTER. (NO tablets, please!)
