Back when Apple's MAC computers made it possible to design even better.

It's already been well over 25 years since I first started teaching Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator at the academy~~^^

I remember the days when, instead of calling the instructors Teacher Eom, Teacher Ha, and Teacher Gu, we used to call them Eom-T and Gu-T.

Together with those teachers, we started using ComTee as an abbreviation for Computer Teacher!

I will continue to be a "Computer Teacher" who works hard to share knowledge for all those who are learning.

Thank you!!

Thank you!!

Together with everyone, we've come to use "Com-T" as a shorthand for Computer Teacher! We will continue to be a Computer Teacher that works hard to share knowledge for all learners. Thank you!!
