Tips To Tutor Wordpress To Internet Beginners

By Haley Bonner


Nowadays, being savvy in the Internet is considered to be cool. When people are capable of making their own website without even going through considerable amount of formal training, they are considered to be cool. There is that double standard that even amateurs want to overcome and so they look for someone who can tutor WordPress.

This is definitely an effective way to start up one's journey to becoming Internet savvy. They should get themselves familiar with the most popular and basic platforms in the Internet, after all. In order for them to be called a child of digital age, they should start out with this and then branch out to other platforms available.

If you are someone who is already Internet savvy, then you might be the one to help these amateurs out. Just make sure they have at least the basic knowledge on how to use the computer. Because if not, then you have to teach them the fundamental lesson of how to use the said machine

Assuming that amateurs know how to use the computer, you can go ahead and tell them how they can use this platform. When it comes to teaching the said amateurs, there should be a few things you can do for it. To teach them, here are some effective means that you can use these days.

First, it is important for you to ask them what they actually want to do directly. They might want to make a blog or they might want to have their own website. Whatever they want has an impact on what you teach them. Remember that in the Internet there are different platforms available for either of the two, after all.

Tour them around the website. You have to let them know what they can see first, where is the dashboard, and other parts of the site. Let them know what each button on the landing page after the sign up does for the viewer. In such cases, you have to be patient considering that there are numerous buttons you can click.

Since you are already giving them a tour, then you just have to demonstrate what basic functions they can take advantage of in the said platform. You have to specifically teach them the step-by-step procedures of the feature they will definitely use frequently. Have them try it out for themselves too to determine whether they understand or not.

In this case, posting content is definitely the main function that a person will want to do on the website. Then, you just have to make sure that they understand how to do it. After that, you can teach them bit by bit on how they can make changes on the appearance of the post. You can teach them how to change the layout, font style, font, and font size.

If what the person wants to change is the theme of the blog, then allow them to do so. Educate them about how the themes are being showcased in the theme area of the platform. Tell about how some are for free and some comes with a price too. They can decide which theme they will choose after that.
