About Terry D
Hello, my name is Terry!
A dedicated and loving family man, and a true "Tech Geek" to my core.
I am a veteran IT Professional of 26+ years, providing services as a CompTIA-IT Tutor specializing in helping individuals from ages 18 years of age and up, to prepare for taking their IT certification exam for any of the certifications listed below.
With over 1450+ hours of IT Tutoring and assisting 26 students in passing their exams (and counting), here are the current certifications I provide tutoring for.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Certification-Based Tutoring-
* CompTIA A+ (220-1001/1002)
* CompTIA Network+ (N10-007)
* CompTIA Security + SY0-501
* CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-002)
* CompTIA CASP (CAS-003)
* Cisco Certified Network Associate -CCNA-(200-301)
(ISC)2 SSCP (Systems Security Certified Practitioner)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Certification-Based Tutoring
Windows OS (10, 8.1, 7) training
macOS (10.16 Big Sur, and earlier) training
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also specialize in helping a wide range of students, some of whom are not only pursuing their IT certifications, yet also have learning and neurological differences they may feel might impede upon their chance of success in passing their certification exams.
I do not believe this to be so!
For some of my students who have Asperger's, ADHD, Bipolar, or Anxiety, or other conditions or learning differences, I believe in being highly proactive, adaptive, and very supportive to empower them with the necessary tools both for life skills and IT skill sets.
At current, my wife (who is also my business partner) and I have over 30+ students who are actively using our IT tutoring and support coaching services.
Therefore, it is absolutely priceless to me, whenever I can share my time-honored IT knowledge and expertise with all of our students. I also take care to advise each and every student when they first start with me, the same truth every time:
"If you don't succeed, I don't succeed - and to me... that's just unacceptable."
So I am committed to your success from start to finish.
As a cross-platform tech (Mac and Windows), I also work as an independent Professional IT Contractor, working on various Windows-based and Networking contracts for over 50 different companies, from large firms to big-box retail stores and restaurants.
Finally, I believe learning should be fun as well as intuitive and empowering to all who seek to expand their overall IT knowledge.
So I always strive to keep an open mind, as long as each student has a willingness to learn --- and the rest will follow!

My approach to tutoring is more of a holistic, empathetic, focused and foundational learning method that I apply with each and every student I tutor.
This approach places complete emphasis and focus, on the cognitive abilities of each student, therefore allowing them to learn according to their own unique way of learning, using the VAK (Aural, Visual or Kinesthetic) method.
Tutoring my students in this manner has many benefits: It allows them to effectively receive, digest, and absorb the knowledge they receive when tutoring with me, in their way, their pace and level of comprehension for one. Additionally, they can do so without the pressure of being forced to learn in a way that does not compliment their sensory approach to acquiring new knowledge.
The benefit for me as their IT tutor, is I have the opportunity to adapt to each student based on his or her learning style, help them develop their dormant skills in IT while increasing their awareness of their abilities, improve their
skill sets and literally watch them evolve as an individual into the IT Professional they desire to be.
If you wish to be the IT professional you have always longed to be, or become more adept, increasing your Windows or macOS skills, let's talk!

Terry gives his students the chance to study and improve.
Terry is not only knowledgeable but his style of teaching and mentoring is customised to every student's individual personality and learning style. I participated in one on one sessions as well as group sessions and he's able to break down a subject in several different ways to help bring clarity and understanding. He's taught me how to read and review test questions in order to know exactly what's being asked without pondering for long periods of time on what may seem to be complicated questions. Terry and his wife Rebecca still continue to mentor me in my career and help me maintain focus to keep my successful momentum going. I recommend Terry for anyone looking for tutoring and mentorship no matter where one may be in their career. He goes above and beyond for his students and encourages us to continue professional relationships with each other as we all progress in our field. I've developed relationships with other students whom Terry has coached and mentored and we continue to motivate, assist, network and encourage each other just as Terry has done with us.
I can't say enough good things about Terry! He goes the extra mile when it comes to making sure my son understands all concepts. Terry listens and takes each student's ideas and suggestions into consideration as he plans their study guides. He tailors sessions to the student's learning style which is rare when it comes to finding a good tutor. Terry also teaches test taking techniques-breaking down each question so that my son can ace his certification exams. He engages the student while keeping them on track ( great personality). He is one of the best tutors!
Deborah R.TD is terrific tutor; he is patient and kind with the ability to break down complicated ideas and make them understandable. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
