How we do it

General

At PC-HelpLine, one of our specialties is skill training in -- and customization of -- Mac applications.

Our niche is individualized one-on-one training. All of our Macintosh training is given on a one-on-one basis.

Structured Courses

The ability to retain new learning skills seems to decrease as instruction time increases. We believe strongly that a single day's computer learning session should not exceed three hours.

Accordingly, we structure our formal courses in modules, each 2 hours and 30 minutes long, teaching only one module to a student in a single day. This has an additional advantage in that the student is away from her or his workplace or home for only a half-day during that session.

We ask that our students schedule sufficient practice time between modules so that they can practice the skills learned.

Custom Instruction

As an experienced Mac user, you may require skill-enhancement training. In cases like this, we recommend our specialty -- custom (unstructured) training. You will find this type of training extremely effective.

    • You decide the quantity and level of course content
    • We customize instruction to meet your requirements.

Our charges are by the hour, based on the instruction time you need.
