Seeking A Web Mentor by A2J(m): 11:59pm On Feb 12, 2008
I am very much interested in web design/development BUT i don't have money for going to lecture schools.

Am seeking a mentor that is willing to help me develop, am ready to come over to your house,office or anywhere for the trainings, I know bit of html and I NOW HAVE A LAPTOP.


I will really appreciate it, if anyone will come to my aid.

Thanks.

If you have access to the internet everything you need is online. Just hit google and go from there.

folks,

people learn things differently. One man's meat is another's poison. This is up there with, "it is easy and simple. All you have to do is A, B and C". Some learn via googling, others via books, and yet others need that human presence. I belong to the last 2 myself. I am a slow learner but once I get it, I get it.

Sure, I can google for the info but I can't stand reading on a screen. Did I hear someone ask, "well my2cents, u can always print it out". Sure, but I don't like that either. I like books and for people teaching me to stand over my head. Then I fire the 20 or so questions I have to make sure I really understand it.

Of course I can't speak for A2J, but if it were me, telling me to google for stuff would be a turn off. If he wants a mentor, then that's what he wants. I am sure if he wanted e-resources, he would have said so. This is a forum. There is no shame in totally exposing yourself.

Why won't I volunteer? I am glad you asked - I am not in Nigeria and from what I have said above, I would rather be a physically-present mentor. So come on folks, he wants a mentor. Let someone step up cool
