eslie has been teaching for more than 20 years, specializing in software training, coaching, and project mentoring since 2000. Leslie says, “I don’t teach because I’m a know-it-all; I teach because I love helping people get to where they want to be with their skill sets and empowering them with knowledge. We don’t all learn and process information the same way, and I don’t try to make you change your learning style to fit a narrow little box when I work with you; I teach

the way you learn, not the other way around. I don’t use geekspeak, techspeak, or nerdspeak, even though I wear all of those badges proudly. I break down software, tools, and concepts in plain, accessible language and visuals (and on rare occasions, through interpretive dance), but you may come away feeling more like a techie at the end of [our] classes. You may even unleash your inner geek!”

w

Ne

Like all good stories, a mystery requires a grasp of good writing techniques.

This class will have you plotting the almost perfect crime. (The class Crafting The Story: Short Story & Novel Writing is a good companion to this class.) Fee $89.00. CEUs: .8 Y178 Bohart L SH-258 W 6:30-8:30p Class begins 05/21/14 and ends 06/11/14.

CEUs: .4 Y180 Lane W ZWC-107 Sa 9a-1p Class begins 05/17/14 and ends 05/17/14.
