Meet Our Tutors - Ash
Hey Ash, what makes Yoobee Colleges different?
“The sense of community within the classes and the campus. Also the way our learning is structured and the schedule we stick to. Being in the same place, same time, every day really helps to build routine for our students which I believe helps them feel comfortable. This makes teaching at Yoobee a dream for tutors because you actually get to know your students.”
Ash is one of our Wellington tutors and teaches Yoobee's Level 5 Web & Graphic Design. This is where you learn both graphic design and web & UX design skills. From here, you decide which one you want to specialise in, whether that's our Level 6 Diploma in Creative Digital Design or our Level 6 Diploma in Web & UX Design.
