About Portersportraits
Inspiring Confidence and Establishing Legitimacy:
With years of experience in teaching and a strong background in technology, I am dedicated to helping my students achieve their learning goals. My approach is centered on clarity, patience, and personalized instruction, ensuring that every student not only understands the material but also feels confident in applying their new skills. I’ve successfully guided students from various backgrounds, including beginners and those with specific learning needs, to a level of proficiency they never thought possible.
I currently teach as a Computer Lab Manager as well as a Content Director, which reflect my commitment to staying current in the field of technology education. My professional journey has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to make complex concepts accessible to all learners.
Reassuring Students of My Professionalism:
I take pride in providing a professional and respectful learning environment. I understand that each student’s time and progress are valuable, and I ensure that our sessions are well-organized, punctual, and focused on your individual needs. You can expect clear communication, structured lesson plans, and a supportive atmosphere where your success is my priority.
My teaching philosophy is centered on continuous improvement—both for my students and myself. I regularly seek feedback to refine my methods and stay adaptable to new educational techniques and tools. Whether we’re working together in person or online, you can trust that our sessions will be conducted with the highest level of professionalism and care.

My Teaching Method and Techniques:
My approach to tutoring is rooted in patience, clarity, and practicality. I believe in breaking down complex concepts into simple, digestible steps, allowing students to build a strong foundation in basic computer technology. I use a hands-on, interactive method where students learn by doing. This means we’ll spend plenty of time working through real-life scenarios, practicing skills that are immediately applicable.
I tailor my teaching techniques to each student's learning style, whether they prefer visual aids, step-by-step instructions, or a more exploratory approach. I also incorporate regular feedback and adjust the pace of lessons to ensure that students fully grasp each topic before moving on.
A Typical Lesson Plan:
A typical lesson begins with a brief review of the previous session to reinforce learning. I then introduce the day’s topic with a clear explanation, supported by visual aids or demonstrations. The bulk of the lesson is hands-on practice, where students apply what they've learned in real-time. We’ll troubleshoot any issues together, ensuring that they feel confident with each skill.
For example, if we’re covering basic word processing, we might start with an overview of the software, followed by creating, editing, and saving a document. I wrap up each lesson with a quick recap and assign a small, practical task to reinforce learning between sessions.
What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
What sets me apart is my ability to connect with students on a personal level, making learning enjoyable and stress-free. I’m not just teaching a subject; I’m empowering students to become more confident and self-sufficient in their technological skills. My background in education and performing arts allows me to present information in an engaging and memorable way, ensuring that students remain motivated and interested.
I also emphasize patience and encouragement, creating a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes—both of which are crucial for effective learning.
Who the Lessons Are For:
My lessons are designed for anyone looking to gain a solid understanding of basic computer technology, whether you’re a beginner with little to no experience or someone looking to brush up on specific skills. I cater to a wide range of students, including:
Elementary and Middle school students needing to start with the basics
High school and college students needing foundational tech skills for academic success
Adults re-entering the workforce who need to update their technology knowledge
Seniors looking to become more comfortable with computers for personal use
Professionals aiming to improve their efficiency with basic software tools
No matter your starting point, I’ll meet you where you are and help you achieve your learning goals.
