I'm a highly experienced professional graphic designer offering my services as a tutor to anyone with an interest in graphic design. After working within reputable design and advertising agencies within the region and having held the roles of art director, design manager and creative director I now run my own design studio called Design Bomb. Feel free to visit www.designbomb.co.uk to download my credentials and see examples of my work and some of the many sectors I have worked in and clients I have worked for.

I work on a Apple Macintosh system so it is preferable that this is the platform that you will be working on.

Tuition can take place at my small studio in Morley at a cost of £20 per hour.
Or at your home or place of work for £25 per hour.

Tuition periods can either be at pre-booked times during the day or evenings.

You may be:
