Marjorie came to Mactech over 11 years ago as an Instructor specializing in Adult Education. Her experience provided a sound insight into the needs of adult learners. Marjorie personifies the notion of mutual success. In her department and her life, the student always comes first. Emphasizing excellence in instruction and a keen interest in student success, Marjorie defines the ideal Director of Student Services. "It's not enough to send people a computer and tell them the help they need is online.
Anella joined our Instructional Team over 10 years ago. An Instructor by both nature and design, she takes great pride in her work and sincerely enjoys the personal student - teacher interaction that the distance education environment allows. "As a former teacher in the traditional education system, I realize that what sets us apart here at Mactech is the unlimited access students have to their instructors. We deal with each student on an individual basis providing essential one-to-one tutorial assistance."
Kim has been employed with Mactech Distance Education for 9 years. As a Microsoft Office User Specialist (Expert), and a Certified MS Professional, Kim specializes in the Microsoft Office Professional and Computerized Business Management programs. One of Kim’s many positive attributes is her attention to detail when providing feedback to students. "We develop a strong rapport with our students right from the beginning. That really helps people successfully complete their Mactech Program."
An Instructor with Mactech for more than 7 years, Lucille draws from her previous experience in the public and private sectors, and a solid, practical knowledge base in post-secondary education. "I've had students get stuck and call me for help. Sometimes, they couldn't really say what the problem was, but by listening to them, I could usually figure it out and get them on their way. That can only happen when people talk to people."
An employee of the graphic design and multimedia industry for over 11 years, specializing in both government and private sector contracts, Jennifer brings an abundance of knowledge and experience to the Instructional Team. In addition to bringing out the best in her students, Jennifer stays on top of things as our in-house Web Design and Graphic Layout guru. "We encourage our students to develop their individual creativity and applaud their accomplishments."
Brad, comes from a technical background, with a multitude of certifications and technical diplomas. He has 2 years previous experience as an Instructor and owned and operated a computer sales and repair business. He is also a network specialist, and is skilled on all office programs. His understanding personality and professional attitude make him a terrific addition to the team of Mactech Instructors. "I truly believe that Mactech has managed to find a perfect balance with providing personally assisted hands-on training, while managing to stay completely on top of the IT industry by being diverse and organized enough to offer the latest programs (as they are being released). It is very gratifying to be part of a company that cares so much about their students and works so hard to prepare students for today’s job market."
Before joining the Mactech team, Mandy Lee was a Compositing Supervisor at a well-known animation company. She and her group of 16 employees worked on the production of numerous television shows and commercials for stations such as Teletoon, Family Channel, and Tree house. Her leadership and training skills combined with hands on experience in this vast industry are qualifications that are invaluable to our students and our college. "Being an integral part of each student’s transition from study to successful career is rewarding. And, in the Mactech learning environment, there is more to being an Instructor than just providing information. We support student’s creativity and provide positive reinforcement on a personal and individual basis. This solidifies the foundation students need to be successful in this industry."
Stephen, our newest instructor, has a wide variety of experience in the multimedia industry. He has been employed as a videographer, graphic designer and has acquired a wealth of knowledge doing freelance work. His diplomas and certificates in Graphic Design and Applied Arts began his evolvement as a designer and have since helped him win several design competitions. "I am so excited about being able to share my knowledge, and the prospect of inspiring creative work in students as they set the foundations for their new careers."
