Basics of Building a Desktop Computer & CompTIA ITF+ Test Prep

A partir de 36 $ /h

Computers are an absolute necessity in the modern world, though knowing how to use them is only half the battle. Understanding the layout and internal parts of a desktop computer will provide you the knowledge needed to upgrade and replace various parts in an existing desktop computer, design and build a desktop computer from scratch, and acts as a foundation for the learning of future computer skills, such as programming or troubleshooting.

In the process of learning these skills, you'll also learn everything necessary in order to pass the CompTIA ITF+ certification exam! This certification is an optional way of expressing your skills to potential employers and is most useful to young people starting out on their career path, and working adults considering a transition, however, this class will teach skills useful to people of any age and profession.

This course will be taught by Shane, where he provides a variety of services for clients from across the country. Shane is an experienced IT professional, having worked years for Fortune 500 companies, designed and built computers for both personal and professional environments, and is an avid gamer in his spare time. He was also a D1 ice hockey player in college and is an experienced teacher, having taught both computer and hockey skills professionally in the past.

Información adicional

Since this class is taught online by webcam, you'll need a working computer. Specifically, you'll want to make sure your screen and speakers/headphones work so that you can follow along with the video.

If you'd like to enhance the experience and have access to an old or unused desktop computer, let Shane know and he'll happily tailor the course to help you to learn your specific computer better.

Further, if you were considering designing and building your own desktop computer now, Shane can help you to pick and purchase parts, allowing you to build your computer over the course of the class!

I'm a Spanish teacher with over 20 years of experience in education, and my goal has always been clear: to help students learn the language in a practical, natural, and meaningful way.

My teaching approach is centered around real-life situations, with a strong focus on speaking and oral expression. I use a modern, engaging, and student-friendly method that encourages communication from day one.

I truly believe that learning a language is not just about memorizing rules—it's about living it, using it, and enjoying the journey.

I’m passionate about guiding each student along their path and providing them with the tools they need to feel confident using Spanish in real contexts.

My style of teaching focuses on conversations based on everyday situations. I think that conversation, whether with beginners or with more advanced levels, is a very effective way of facing grammatical and pronunciation challenges. Each class is personalised to the needs and interests of the students.

Along with grammar and conversation classes, I prepare students for official Cambridge exams. These classes are focused on understanding the format of the exam, the requirements and tips for passing each section.

My name is Fawzi, and I am a French language teacher. Since 2012, I have been giving private lessons online. My objective is to support learners towards success in the DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) or the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), as well as the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have had the pleasure of helping many students of different nationalities through my online courses. For me, helping enthusiasts practice the French language is an enriching experience, because I understand the importance of success in the lives of ambitious people.

I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English and a little Turkish. During my classes, I explain concepts in French, Arabic or Spanish, depending on your preference. At the end of each session, I offer exercises to do as homework, in order to identify your gaps and monitor your progress.

Here are some essential points to know about the DELF and DALF:
- The DELF (Diploma in French Language Studies) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two high-quality official diplomas. They are aligned with the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and cover the following six levels, from the most basic to the most advanced: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
- The DELF B2 and, increasingly, the DALF C1, provide access to French, European or French-speaking universities, as well as certain Grandes Ecoles.

If you plan to take DELF or DALF exams, or if you want to improve your level, do not hesitate to book your sessions with me to start preparation. I am available !

Is AI just for adults? Absolutely not!

This is the perfect course for children (and their parents) to truly understand what Artificial Intelligence is, how it works in our daily lives (from Netflix to video games), and, most importantly, how to use it safely and creatively.

Led by a teacher with over 10 years of experience in technology and coaching, your child will learn to:

Identify what is and what is not AI (the myth vs. the reality).

Play the game of 'training' an AI with simple and fun examples (basic Machine Learning).

Ask their first intelligent questions to generative AI tools to create digital stories or art (introduction to Prompt Engineering).

Understand the importance of ethics and safety when using these new technologies.

This course will transform your child's curiosity into a fundamental skill for the future. We use a personalized coaching approach to ensure complex concepts are accessible and exciting, especially for students with Special Educational Needs (SEN)!

My interest for languages has organically led me into pursue a career as a Spanish tutor. With years of blogging and editing for social media, I have developed a keen sense of detail and aesthetics.
In addition, my role as a Professor Assistant has embedded valuable academic experience in me as well. Coupled with my journalism experience, it gives me the tools needed to conduct advanced level Spanish classes.
I now welcome the opportunity to further expand my horizons and look forward to teaching children of all ages while exposing them to the wide Spanish and Latin American cultures.
I'm a journalist who is totally in love with being a Spanish Teacher.

La Inteligencia Artificial ya forma parte de nuestro día a día y se ha convertido en una herramienta clave para mejorar la productividad, la organización y la forma en que trabajamos y aprendemos. Sin embargo, muchas personas no saben por dónde empezar ni cómo utilizarla de forma práctica y segura.
Este curso está diseñado como una guía práctica y accesible para aprender a usar herramientas de Inteligencia Artificial sin necesidad de conocimientos técnicos previos. A lo largo de las clases aprenderás a interactuar con asistentes de IA como ChatGPT, a redactar mejores textos, organizar tareas, resumir información, crear ideas, automatizar pequeñas tareas y mejorar tu eficiencia digital en el trabajo y en la vida diaria.
Trabajaremos con ejemplos reales y ejercicios prácticos orientados a situaciones cotidianas: estudio, trabajo administrativo, atención al cliente, docencia, emprendimientos y uso personal. El objetivo es que puedas aplicar la IA de forma inmediata, con criterio, responsabilidad y confianza.
