About Me

Greetings everyone, from the mid-west, USA!

Here’s a little bit of background on me: I’ve been into web design as long as there has been a web for the masses. What once started out as a hobby quickly became an obsession, and finally, a career.I really enjoy making web sites. Seeing them come together is really an achievement, and being able to express yourself online is truly amazing in this day and age.

Why should you choose me?
HTML and CSS
- Get things explained in your terms.
- Learn the most up to date, correct, and standards-compliant way of making a site (even from scratch!)
- Learn how to validate your pages, fix errors, and why it’s important.
- How to keep your structure separate from your presentation. Learn to use HTML and CSS effectively.
- How to get your site to look the same in multiple browsers.
- Learn by doing it! I can provide examples and give you links to further your reading.
- We can go as fast or slow as you want, to maximize your learning experience.
- Leave your WYSIWYG at the door!

PHP
- Learn how to write it and how to write clean, readable code.
- Learn how variables, arrays, functions, classes, and methods work.
- Learn object-oriented programming.

Forget what you know!
Chances are, if you do already know some web design, you probably learned it from some place such as an outdated web site or book. Unfortunately, technology changes so rapidly, and the web is no exception.What was once acceptable almost a decade ago has now become deprecated and obsolete. When we think of the web today, we are no longer talking about web sites, but more like “Web Applications.”

What about other web languages?
I may add other web languages here to my profile, so watch this space if your language of choice isn’t listed yet.

Final words
Whether you need to learn HTML, CSS, or PHP from scratch, if you need to brush up on your skills, or if you just want to learn the latest way of doing things on the web, I’m the teacher for you!

I look forward to hearing from you all soon!
