How the teaching works
Analysing a spreadsheet, drafting a report, preparing a presentation: you bring the work, and we work through it together.
Say what you need in a way that leaves little room for guessing.
Who it's for, what matters, what to leave out, and what a good answer looks like.
Learn to spot common mistakes and decide whether the output is good enough.
For organisations
Workshops built around the work your people already do. Tell me about your team and what you want them to be able to do, and I'll come back to you with a plan.

Your instructor
I'm a mechanical engineer, project engineer and founder of Hewrites Academy. Managing projects across multiple sites has taught me how to turn a broad request into clear instructions someone can act on.
I bring that same approach to teaching AI. We start with a task you already do, break it down, and work through how to get a result you can use.
