Tips To Tutor Wordpress To Internet Beginners

By Haley Bonner


Nowadays, being savvy in the Internet is considered to be cool. When people are capable of making their own website without even going through considerable amount of formal training, they are considered to be cool. There is that double standard that even amateurs want to overcome and so they look for someone who can tutor WordPress.

Indeed, this is one of the basic ways on how people can become Internet savvy. When they are familiar with this popular and basic platform, then they should be able to consider themselves as a child of the digital age. Of course, they should not be limited to this platform. There are other platforms that they should take advantage of.

To those who are already knowledgeable in this field, then you should consider helping out these amateurs. Of course, it is easier for you to teach them if they already have basic knowledge of the use of the computer. Otherwise, you might need to start teaching them elementary knowledge.

Assuming that amateurs know how to use the computer, you can go ahead and tell them how they can use this platform. When it comes to teaching the said amateurs, there should be a few things you can do for it. To teach them, here are some effective means that you can use these days.

First, it is important for you to ask them what they actually want to do directly. They might want to make a blog or they might want to have their own website. Whatever they want has an impact on what you teach them. Remember that in the Internet there are different platforms available for either of the two, after all.

If you have already decided on what platform you will introduce to them, you should not hesitate to tour them around the site. You better let them see how the landing page actually looks like. Tell them where those important buttons are and the functions they are meant for. Be patient when teaching them.

Since you are already giving them a tour, then you just have to demonstrate what basic functions they can take advantage of in the said platform. You have to specifically teach them the step-by-step procedures of the feature they will definitely use frequently. Have them try it out for themselves too to determine whether they understand or not.

The posting of content is certainly the main function you will have to educate them. Of course, you will also have to educate them how they can make a few changes on the appearance of their post. It is actually possible to do that in most platforms. You can educate them how to change the font, font style, font color, font size, layout, and other aspects.

There might be times when the amateur will want to change the appearance or layout of the blog. Some wants to change the theme. You have to tell them about this. Let them know that there are various themes both for free and for sale online. Let them choose what they want.
