Training - Home Schooling

We provide one-on-one or group training in Home Schooling:

Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Don Koonce. I am a former adjunct teacher at Kingwood and Montgomery Colleges specializing in software training. I now have my own studio which enables me to TEACH WHAT YOUR STUDENT WANTS TO LEARN AT THEIR OWN PACE. I find teaching youth very rewarding and am always delighted to teach students who want to learn. I am limiting my computer classes to middle school and high school age students. Students can learn at their own pace. Either one-on-one training or a group of four or less. Students must be accompanied by an adult.

Students have 2 options for one-on-one or group training.

1. Student can sign up for a class listed below for $99/ class. Each class is 12 hours, (4) day, (3) hours/day, (2) week schedule. Can be on Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday schedule. Either morning, afternoon, or evening times. Check with DBK for available times.

2. Student can purchase a block of 10 lab hours at $120. This allows the student the flexibility to work on any software program we offer for any length of time any day of the week. Check with DBK for available times.
