Web Design Training
December 3, 2013
Hi,
Some of you know that we’ve been hard at work refining our interactive training system for schools – StudioWeb.
The feedback we’ve been getting from teachers and students has been great and has helped us really improve. So over a year later, nearly 2000 students, we are about to release version 2!
Top StudioWeb 2.0 Features – from a teachers perspective:
• Turn-key courses with automated quizzing, correcting and tracking
• Full reporting + charts
• Teachers answer book
• Printable course outlines
• Course project files
StudioWeb removes all the bookkeeping so you can concentrate on the teaching!
With StudioWeb, even teachers who are not tech savvy can effectively manage a class! In fact, given all the automation that StudioWeb provides, teachers can more easily manage large classrooms.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Hi!
Some of you may know that I am a BIG advocate the code in the classroom. In fact, I feel that all kids should be learning code in middle and high school for a few reasons:
- Knowing how to code opens up many work opportunities.
- Knowing how to code opens business opportunities.
- Coding teaches discipline, logic and project planning.
… You can read about it all on studioWeb.
Thanks,
Stefan Mischook

I get email all the time from people wanting to know how to this or how to do that … or even just where to begin in the web design or web programming world. For example:
I am new. Know nada. I can navigate on the web etc. I need to learn how to run a simple HTML web page . I also live word press sites!!!!
I would love to learn more, am I stuck using Dreamweaver ? I am waiting for someone to give me lessons , in the meantime I am trying to learn what I can. Suggestions ? Thanks!
Nancy
My answer:
New and nada …. that’s my specialty!
I can suggest a few options … first, my Complete Web Designer package that teaches you everything you need to know to be a professional web designer – from scratch:
http://www.killervideostore.com/video-courses/complete-web-designer.php
Or, if you don’t mind streaming video, my premium video library subscription (which has all our courses) is probably our best deal:
http://library.killersites.com/
Finally, if you need hosting any time soon, then this would be our MORE best deal for you:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi,
We’ve been working hard and we’ve just released a new training video system designed to help teachers teach web design and web programming.
I think our press release summarizes it well:
KillerSites is proud to announce the release of the Web Tutor.
Developed by experienced web educators, the Web Tutor is an interactive video training system that teaches HTML, CSS, PHP and JavaScript. The Web Tutor includes quizzing (multiple choice and coding challenges), classrooms, student scoring/tracking and verifiable certification.
There’s a lot more to it than what you see in the press release, for example, check out our
classroom features:

Hi,
I will start with the main point:
You can now get the Complete Web Designer for only $20 (instead of the normal price of $100) through our special deal.
Read below to learn about the details …
Probably my most popular training package is the Compete Web Designer, because it takes you from knowing nothing about web design, to having commercial web designer skills. Some nerd details:
The Complete Web Designer offers you over 29 hours of training that easily guides you from total beginner to becoming a productive web designer. You will learn:
- HTML
- CSS
- Dreamweaver CS6
- Photoshop for the Web
- HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery
… And more!
Every student of web design needs to get a hosting account at some point.
Being able to properly use a hosting account is part of the process of learning web design and besides, you will probably need a website at some point too. With that in mind, we’ve partnered with a popular hosting company where you can now buy the $100 Complete Web Designer package for only $20 when you get a 1 year hosting package … this will cost you $3.15/month, or the cost of one coffee per month!
It’s is by far the best deal we’ve offered or seen anywhere. If you were ever planning on learning web design, this is your chance to do it for practically nothing.

Hi,
I had a conversation recently on how to best teach web design and programming, and I thought the main points of the conversation might make a good blog post … so here we go!
Stef’ Web Design Teaching Strategy
There is a lot that goes into creating an effective web design or web programming training course, but I can reduce it to these three main principles:
- Break things up into manageable chunks.
- Avoid tech/nerd terms as much as possible.
- Filter what you teach – don’t try to show everything at once.
My teaching style is based on my ten + years of teaching web design and programming but it is also based on my training in psychology and believe it or not, about 30 yrs of martial arts training – I use teaching principles and techniques I picked up from many styles of martial arts, from my many martial art teachers, and from a couple of broken noses!
… You learn a lot when you get your nose broke, it’s true!
The good thing though, is that I can guarantee that in my web design and web programming training courses, you will not get your nose broken. But you will still learn how to be a professional web designer and web programmer if you want to.
