Get started
A simple checklist so your first session feels unhurried. Nothing complicated — most of it takes just a few minutes.
Simple prep checklist
You don’t need to be a tech expert. If you can browse the web and join a video call, you’re ready. All you need is a device, an internet connection, and a little curiosity.
A computer or tablet works best, since you’ll be watching my screen as we go. A smartphone can work too, but a larger screen is easier to follow.
I’ll email you a Zoom link before your session. You can join in your browser, or use the Zoom app if you prefer.
Headphones are optional, but they can reduce echo. We can test your audio in the first couple of minutes.
I teach with ChatGPT, but you’re welcome to use Claude or Gemini too. If you don’t have an account yet, the free versions are enough to get started. You’ll find official links on this page.
Joining a few minutes early gives us time to check audio and get settled. On a computer, Chrome or Edge tends to work best.
No preparation is required. But if something comes to mind — a trip you’re planning, a question you’ve been wrestling with, or something you’re curious about — bring it. Real examples usually make the class better.
