Introduction

My Objective:

Having already tapped the market for computer help in my neighborhood by independently providing private tutoring and troubleshooting assistance to middle-aged residents and senior citizens, I am now looking to expand this service by facilitating the formation of a "network" of young tutors and troubleshooters, each with their own specialties. These people would operate independently of one another.

Part of my motivation for this is based on the recognition that my own skills are limited in certain areas (such as PCs: I am a Mac person) and that clients sometimes have issues that I am unable to help them with or want to learn programs that I am unable to teach. In these cases, they would benefit from more customized assistance. I also see this community as a testing ground for a larger venture that would serve clients city-wide.
