Private Tuition and Workshops

The aim of Joyful Pear Design is to teach folks how they can utilise online resources to create their own DIY graphic design related projects and marketing. Projects like Websites, Blogs, eBooks, Business Cards, Photo Editing, Advertising, email Newsletters, Social Media, etc... We mainly work with all the amazing FREE opportunities that are currently available to anyone on the internet.

Joyful Pear Design specialises in helping small business and sole traders within Whangārei (and Northland). We are happy to visit you at your place so you can learn and get set-up on your own devices. Or you are welcome to visit us at our design studio in Onerahi. We also provide a range of workshops each school term at Whangārei's wonderful local night-school CEW (based in Kamo).

Most tuition lasts 2-3 hours and is based around your questions and what you'd like to achieve. Joyful Pear Design can offer tuition, advice, design services, and recommendations. With over 25 years experience in publishing, marketing, graphic design, web design, and tuition, we can help find the most useful solutions for you.

Who We Are

Hi, I'm Shelley and I manage Joyful Pear Design. I've been working in publishing, marketing, graphic design, web design, and teaching Adults, for over 25 years. I love learning myself and aim to make learning fun and easy for all those that I tutor. I gained a Teaching Adults Certificate last century and have enjoyed teaching Graphic Design related classes including Photoshop and Web design ever since.

My career has included working on cartoons for TV, national magazines, advertising, business marketing, in-house design, teaching & creation of Graphic Design tertiary programmes, private tuition, and night school classes. I helped manage a small design studio in Auckland for over 10 years & have been managing my own small design studio in Whangārei for almost 10 years. I understand the needs of small business owners on a tight budget & with a tight time schedule, and enjoy finding solutions for any DIY marketing queries.

I did an art degree & a multimedia diploma in Whangārei and am excited by all the interesting creative opportunities available online! It's now easy to publish your own book, share your hobby online with a free website, or create digital art for gifts (or just for fun)! The internet, computers and other modern devices are wonderful tools. I look forward to helping you find inspiration for your projects!
