Why don't YOU tutor her?

I have, a bit... however, knowing something and being able to impart that
knowledge to another in an intelligible manner are two entirely separate things.
This is why I'm trying to find something online that's better-written... as I've
noted before, I have seen electronics tutorials online that have animated
circuit diagrams where the user can toggle onscreen switches and see the results
in current flow, etc., but have been unable to find them again... this is the
sort of thing I'm looking for.

even if I teach computer stuff at night as a second job,I am not able to
teach one bit about computer to my wife...
and why is it like that? simple,as soon that you repeat anything she will
say: I am not dumb you told me that before...so you go on and now she
complaint that your too fast,cause you don't repeat anymore,I've been able
to teach a 62 years old electrician on how to to install its whole OS on his
pc.in a 60 hour class,and at the first class he was not even able to find
the power switch on the IBM machine in front of him..
But a man CANT teach anything technical to his wife....that's like trying to
make a Jewish mother say that she was wrong on anything in front of her
kids....

My wife wanted me to teach her Photoshop in one night. Why? Because you have
it on your machine, so I want to use it to print family pics...uh ok..but
that's a bit of an over-kill, why don't you use Picture It...it's on your
machine already. Why? You think I'm dumb? No, but it took me 6 months to
learn PS. Well, that means I can learn it in 3. Ok, so what do you need me
for? To teach me. Well, no one taught me...so you're on your own and we'll
have a contest in 3 months :-)
