Video Professor
The Video Professor, John W. Scherer, is featured on just about every channel these days. He is fabulously informative, and offers his viewers, with his 30 second spots, an opportunity to try out tutorial software. The software programs that he and his team have created tutorials for ranges from the most simple of everyday user programs to some of the more complex programs available on the market.
The range of products that they provide makes them as popular as even the Complete Idiots Guides that can be found profiled in just about every book store. These guides, much like the Video Professor, have a degree of credibility that your everyday guide and tutorial creators seem to lack. And this credibility allows them the resources to create some of the most professional tutorial products on the market.
What has made the Video Professor such a hit is that the team behind these products have been able to weave an approach that meshes the technical knowledge with a strong understanding of educational principals. The everyday person seems to find keeping pace with the variety of computer programs necessary to function day in and day out to be a challenge. Many of the users of these programs were born well before the advent of personal computing being what it is. Even more were born before the advent of the Internet.
Some of the programs featured in the line of tutorials offered by John Scherer and his team include tutorials include:
- Windows
- Word
- Excel
- Ebay
- Access
- Powerpoint
- FrontPage
And these are just to name a few. The team Scherer has grown is versed in just about all the programs on the market, and they are about as good a place to get an education on the goings on in the computer world as anywhere. The tutorials are given in laymen’s English, and the images used to complement the tutorials are as plain as day. Learning from a tutor or a teacher may be the best way to go, but when you consider the cost of a private computer tutor and compare that to the services of the Video Professor, I’m afraid there will be little reason to consider any further.
As a result of the success the Video Professor has had (over 10 million taught), he and his team have been able to create a broad range of products that work to aide those who’ve, for whatever reason, been out of an educational center or program that has kept them up to date on the programs that have shaped, and continue to shape the collective behavior of computer users throughout the world.
It has often been said that music is the language of the world. Well, there may be a second language of the world, and that may be the computational language.
If you are short on knowledge in any of the computer programs you wish to be fluent, consider the familiar face of the Video Professor and his system of tutorials that can make learning whatever program just about as easy as can be!
