An instructor who fits your program
You might need a specialist for one session, a workshop for a client, or an instructor across several weeks of learning. I can teach from your established curriculum, contribute selected modules, or help shape the program and materials. We agree the scope around the assignment.
Live instruction
Book a webinar, a workshop, a short learning series, or delivery within a larger program. For more sustained learning, I can teach data analytics bootcamps, graduate programs, and repeat cohorts. Existing courseware is welcome, with an agreed preparation and review period.
Curriculum development
Build a program using agreed material from my teaching library, or commission course outlines, demonstration files, exercises, solutions, and participant guides for your audience. We scope development and delivery separately so the preparation is clear.
Content refresh & review
Update Excel and AI courses, check technical accuracy, and adapt examples to the software your learners can actually access.
We agree the provider's branding and delivery standards, client communication, preparation time, and materials or recording rights as part of the brief.
Teaching areas and practical outcomes
A strong fit for spreadsheet users moving into analytics, finance teams modernizing reporting, and professionals learning to use AI with sound judgment. These are sample outcomes; depth and prerequisites are agreed for each cohort.
Excel & Power Query
Structure workbook data, clean and combine recurring files, build useful formulas and PivotTables, and create a refreshable reporting process.
Power BI & data modeling
Prepare data, connect related tables, introduce measures, and build reports that answer clear business questions.
Python & Python in Excel
Use pandas to prepare and analyze data, visualize results, and introduce statistics through business examples. Notebook-based Python and Python in Excel are scoped separately.
Copilot & AI workflows
Give AI useful context, draft and explain formulas, explore data, and verify outputs. Exercises use the tools and features approved for your learners.

My background includes financial analysis and business analysis, with experience in retail and healthcare. That shapes the reporting, data preparation, and decision-making examples I bring to class. More about my background.
A clear brief before delivery
- Audience and outcomes. Agree the learners' starting point, the skills they need to practice, and where the session fits in the wider program.
- Materials and setup. Review the courseware, exercise files, software versions, licenses, and access requirements before finalizing the agenda.
- Delivery and follow-through. Confirm dates and time zones, delivery format, feedback expectations, and any agreed follow-up or handover.
Have a session or program in mind?
Send your audience and group size, topics and learner level, proposed dates and time zone, delivery location or virtual format, and whether courseware is already available. Include the teaching hours, preparation needs, and budget range if known.
A short brief is enough to start. We can discuss fit, availability, preparation, and scope from there.
