/ Peter W.
I was educated in graphic design using hot metal type; progressed through the wonders of golfball typewriters and fax machines; and worked in four major Fleet Street newspapers when they were still produced by individuals on Linotype machines the size of wardrobes with molten lead furnaces in them – indoors!
Not only to avoid lava damage to the offices carpets, newspaper journalism moved to mainframe computers. However, all illustrations and maps were done by hand until Steve Jobs brought us the Apple SE in 1987.
First, I taught myself to use the Mac – because there was no one in those days to teach me – and then I taught and enabled many designers to make the move to these life/career/business-changing machines.
Thirty-six years of working for clients in London, Britain and in Europe, developing skills to solve hundreds of clients' complex requests, has given me a wealth of experience of how to get the best out of your computer, and yourself.
I'm Mark the director of Creative Studios Derby Ltd. I have been an Adobe software trainer for 15 years now both freelance, at the University of Derby and for my own company. Previously to that worked as a Graphic Designer for 6 years. I have a lot of experience training individuals and groups at all levels, from small freelance individuals up to multinational companies.
I use a very interactive and project-based method of teaching so that you don't just HEAR but you DESIGN from Day 1. In teaching languages I use the same method, less facts more interaction and conversation and before you know it you are speaking in a language you never knew before.
