“I was very pleased with my Dreamweaver experience! I appreciate how you provided the scaffolding necessary to allow the student to move to more advanced techniques without trepidation and with a clear purpose. I love the fact that we can retake within a 6 month window. I don't anticipate needing another three days, but it gives me peace of mind knowing I have the option. I look forward to taking classes in the future and will be sure to tell friends and colleagues about the top-of-the-line service you provide.”

“This was the best training class that I've ever attended. The material was excellent, the presentation quality and pacing were perfect. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in learning how to use Filemaker to develop database solutions.”

“It definitely was our pleasure to have you come up
to teach us. Everyone is singing your praises and excited to try out
what we’ve learned. We learned so much in a matter of two-and-a-half
days, wonder how much we could’ve accomplished in a week. Definitely
will call you when we have another training class in mind.”

“Tim is an invaluable asset to our computing training program. He has been involved in redefining our curriculum for our monthly classes, taking on the challenge of learning new applications, and has provided professional advice so that we can provide excellent training to our employees. Without Tim, we would not be as successful as we have been over the past year. He took a program that was dying on the vine and breathed new life into it. The student response has been excellent. Whether it is a high level staffer or support staff taking the class, Tim has a way with all students to make them feel comfortable and allow them to be in a positive learning environment. I am confident that anyone who steps into Tim’s classroom will walk out with learning much more than they have in any other computer training course. I cannot say enough good things about him and his skills as an instructor.”

“At [the organization], we have over 1,000 computer users from extremely differing backgrounds and computer experience. Tim Jones is one of those special trainers who can relate to each one and assist them in improving their computer skills. Evaluations we receive from participants consistently cite his thoroughness, nice personal style and knowledge of the topic. As a training coordinator, I am assured to have positive results when Tim is the instructor.”

“Dear Tim,
I came to you after having failed the tech test at a job interview, a job I really wanted and needed. The head of the company said he would be willing to re-test me in September, when they would actually be looking to hire someone. I was desperate. I needed to learn PowerPoint, Excel and brush up on Word. I took a two-day seminar at a well-known national computer training school and felt no more confident about my skills than before. Then I hired someone to come to my house for one-on-one training. It was very expensive, albeit very hands-on, but again, I just did not feel that I was grasping the concepts, particularly PowerPoint, which I really needed to master for this job.
I then found your website and after just one lesson with you, it was as if the clouds had parted! I knew I had found the person who could help me accomplish my goals. Your very concise and understandable teaching style, along with your small classroom size and hands-on approach was a very winning combination. I went on to take several more classes at Accelerate and I GOT THE JOB!! I start on Monday, and I know it wouldn't have happened without your instruction, Tim. You were so good and patient, you really give it your all - and your all is awesome!
Thank you again - I owe it all to you, and I would and will recommend your company to anyone.
Warm regards,
Linda”

“I want to say a sincere thank you for the two days of classes you provided for me. They were excellently presented and thoroughly clear. From one teacher to another—great job! I will come back for more.”
