Apple Does One on One Learning Right
By many accounts, the easiest and most effective way to learn is from instructer to student in a One on One session. You would think this method is usually expensive right? With Apple it is not at all! Apple Computer provides a good example of how to affordably learn by offering up to 52 one hour lessons, at approximately $1.90 per One on One, face-to-face lesson. This is what Apple says on its website regarding the One on One teaching program:
"Sometimes it’s easier to learn with the help of a real person. With over 200 locations worldwide, Apple Retail Stores are your source for personal training, free group workshops, and expert advice."
"Learn more, and learn faster, with One to One personal training sessions."
"trainers are experts in all things Apple - will create a program customized to your interests and skill level. Learn more ... and learn it faster"
Some of the many topics taught include • Getting Started • Mac 101 • iPhone • iPod + iTunes • Digital Photos • Moviemaking • Musicmaking • Websites • Podcasts • Presentations • Productivity • Open ProjectLearn
This is a prime example of most effective teaching in the 21st century, and hopefully an example to be followed not only by industry, but especially educational institutions at all levels.

I completely agree with your statement about this being an example of effective teaching in the 21st century. Also I think that it makes people more comfortable buying a product from a company that offers this kind of one-on-one training. I believe this is because they know if they run into trouble, help is just a call away and most importantly it's affordable. Lastly, companies know that if their customers trust them and are satisfied with services, they will continue to return and also tell other people about it.
