Patrick Timony and Andrew Tompkins will be available in room 215 on Wednesdays and Thursdays to answer questions and help people one on one as much as possible. We can answer questions about JAWS, VoiceOver for iOs, Victor Stream, VoiceOver for Mac, a little about Android and other topics as they come up. We prefer that if you have beginning level questions you come in closer to the morning and if you have advanced level questions you come in closer to the afternoon. The schedule is below. Andrew is an expert level voiceover user who knows OSX and Garageband and just graduated from Shenandoah Conservatory with a degree in Jazz Studies. He will be teaching Garageband classes from 2 to 3:15pm on both days.
