Hello, It is Anne Robertson. her e-mail address for Pages training is educat...@cecimac.org. It costs €125.00, which, with current exchange rates, is ·161.71, but this, of course, changes daily. There are five units, and they are very helpful. I went through the training myself, which she conducts with the help of her husband. Share your screen and they are able to make sure you are performing the steps correctly; otherwise it can get rather confusing if you're not careful. To my knolwedge, no audio tutorials have been created. Written materials are provided as part of the training, which you will be sent upon signing up for her Pages lessons. Please also note that she lives in France, so you should take this into consideration when scheduling lessons. What I did was to add the Paris time zone to my calendar, so I would enter whatever tiem she told me was good for her, and it would convert it automatically on my calendar to my time zone. This is a handy trick I discovered. YOu can set something to be for any time zone in the world, and it will allert you based upon your time zone that your computer is set to. It converts it to your computer's time zone, if I am not mistaken.
Thanks, and I hope this helps. Harry On oct 28, 2012, at 5:50 p.m., Lisette <lisettewessel...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think Anne Robertson.
