About the instructor
My name is Bob “Dr. Mac” LeVitus and I've been writing about Apple technology for over thirty years.
I've written or co-written more than 87 computer books including macOS Mojave For Dummies, twelve editions of iPhone For Dummies, and eleven editions of iPad For Dummies, selling millions of copies worldwide.
For the past 25 years, I've been the Apple technology columnist for the Houston Chronicle (Dr. Mac—now on Sundays), and I've been a columnist for Mac Observer (Dr. Mac's Rants & Raves—usually on Wednesdays) for as long as I can remember.
My point is that I know what I'm talking about when it comes to using Apple gear and I won't steer you wrong...
My latest project is Working Smarter for Mac Users, a family of online courses that show Mac users how to use their Macs better, faster, and more elegantly; banish procrastination, and do more work in less time so they have more time for things they love.
I've been fascinated with efficiency since the day I first laid my fingers on a Macintosh keyboard. I can’t remember a time when I wasn't obsessed with finding better, faster, or more elegant ways to accomplish a task on my Mac. And, after learning I have A.D.H.D. twenty years ago, I became obsessed with cracking the code and becoming über-productive.
Over the years I’ve discovered tons of tips and techniques to help me work smarter. These courses are my way of sharing the best of my 20+ year obsession with Mac users like you.
If you want to learn how to do more work in less time and have more time for things you love, I guarantee this course is going to save you countless hours every day for the rest of your life.
