About your tutor
I’m Stephanie Wium, a Canva Community Ambassador (known as a Canvassador) and the only one in New Zealand. Over the past 2 years, I’ve worked closely with Canva’s global team to support the creative community and champion accessible design education. I love nothing more than to guide business people to build confidence and clarity in their visual content, because design should feel empowering, not intimidating. My teaching style is interactive and supportive.
Testimonials
I wanted to share my feedback on today's Canva for Social Marketing 1-Day course. Over the years, I've attended various courses at Selwyn College, including Sewing, English classes, Xero, Excel (from beginner to advanced levels), and Photoshop, to name a few. I've always appreciated the quality of the courses and the expertise of the tutors. However, I must say that Seann stands out as the best tutor I've encountered. He has an exceptional ability to simplify complex topics, making them much easier to understand.
Given this, I would love to enroll in all the courses taught by Seann, specifically the Instagram for Marketing course in August and the How to Grow Your Business with Digital Marketing course in November. If there are any other courses he teaches, I’d be interested in those as well. DV June 2024
