Services

Delivering training for IT, Numeracy, Literacy and Personal Development can be difficult areas. So often the training fails because the trainer doesn't understand the client's needs and fails to 'get the message across.' I offer a wealth of experience, a calm and happy disposition and know that learners I work with benefit from my experience and empathetic approach.

I have considerable experience delivering training to college students, 16 to 18 year-old government funded learners, New Deal clients, mature students and private sector clients, and have experience working with dyslexic learners and those with learning difficulties, social and domestic problems. Feel free to contact me at any time to discuss your training needs.

IT Training

Since relocating to Glasgow from London in May 2004, I have delivered IT Training with numerous quality training providers, including Rathbone Training, MB Education & Development and Protocol Skills.

I have in-depth knowledge of Microsoft packages: Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Publisher and Outlook, and have tailored training for absolute beginners to experienced clients.

Furthermore, I have developed and delivered training for CLAIT, City & Guilds, OCR, NVQ and ECDL qualifications. Most of all, I know that IT Training needs to be fun!

Numeracy and Literacy

Teaching Numeracy and Literacy skills can be a difficult area. I am very much a 'hands-on' trainer and know that the learners I work with benefit from my experience and empathetic approach. I like to use a combination of all teaching methods and resources to stimulate the learner.

As a Numeracy and Literacy trainer, I have considerable experience delivering training to 16 to 18 year-old government funded learners and New Deal clients. I have worked with dyslexic learners and those with learning difficulties, social and domestic problems.

Since relocating to Glasgow in May 2004, I have delivered Numeracy and Literacy training with Rathbone Training and The Scottish Training Foundation on PSD, Life Skills, GRfW and SIBS programmes.

Personal Development

Personal and Social Development involves motivation, communication skills, interview techniques and job search as part of a programme to aid unemployed people to return to work.

As a PSD trainer, I have considerable experience delivering training to 16 to 18 year-old government funded learners and New Deal clients. I have worked with dyslexic learners and those with learning difficulties, social and domestic problems.

Since relocating to Glasgow in May 2004, I have delivered PSD training with Rathbone Training in Glasgow and Clydebank.

Life Skills

Teaching Life Skills can be a difficult and challenging area. Without a doubt, the first hurdle is simply to engage learners and you cannot do this if you do not understand them. I use a multitude of training techniques and employ my experience and empathetic approach to stimulate and reengage these youngsters.

As a Life Skills trainer, I have considerable experience delivering training to 16 to 18 year-old government funded learner. I have worked with dyslexic learners and those with learning difficulties, social and domestic problems.

I have delivered Life Skills training with Rathbone Training and First Rung. I have also developed a Life Skills training programme for The Scottish Training Foundation.

Programme Development

I have developed training material for many training programmes, including IT (VQ, CLAIT, Key Skills and ECDL), Numeracy, Literacy, PSD, GRfW and Life Skills.

I specialise in easy-to-follow training materials that relate specifically to the clients who will be using them. I have developed training materials and complete training programmes for First Rung, Rathbone Training, The Scottish Training Foundation and MB Education & Development.

Training materials and programme development can be made to your exact specifications and requirements. Feel free to contact me for a free consultation to discuss your needs.
