Our Training Style
- Unlike other corporate IT training, professional courses and MOOCs which only offer one learning method of step-by-step instructions in a linear logical sequence, Ernesto.Net begins by focusing on the big picture, the “Eureka” moment, after which we drill down and teach the specific details. Our style is more in line with how you actually learn, we call it the blurry-to-sharp approach to teaching. We start with the outline of an analogy and gradually sharpen it to the point where we are covering all technical details for the full picture.
- At times, its best to work backwards to the analogy to comprehend the technical description. With this strategy, we ask questions like:
Are you able to explain the technical descriptions in your own words?
Do you have the ability to solve a problem while explaining the process in your own words?
Do you understand the concepts well enough to create a diagrammatic representation of how they are interconnected?
Can you relate the concept to your prior knowledge?
Then from this point, we add details and examples to test your knowledge and iterate once we know the progress.
The reason why we use this training style is that most people forget 95% of what they learn in class after a period of time, however by creating and understanding analogies and diagrams, your brain is more likely to recall the concepts and information that you learned. We recommend also incorporating what works for you and creating your own references for the best learning results.

Training Yourself (you never make it to the flower)

Ernesto.Net Training

The Goal
At Ernesto.Net, our goal is to provide you with training that is beneficial in your education and ultimately your career, that’s why we ensure our techniques actually work to help you go from an abstract concept to a deep and detailed understanding of the topics we cover. If you’re anything like us, you require more than just straight facts and data to internalize new concepts. We also encourage our students to find what works best for you and to take charge of your own learning styles.
In our classes you can expect a 50/50 Lecture Lab. We also pride ourselves on having an empathetic style of teaching. We like to use our natural style, provide insight into our own experiences and anticipate the questions you would have and knowledge you desire to learn to deliver this to you upfront. In saying this, we also always read the room and optimize our teaching style for our students, so you get the best results.
ADEPT Method
In all of our Ernesto.Net courses, you will learn the ADEPT method of teaching which involves Analogies, Diagrams, Examples, Plain English and Technology, modified from the original methodology by Kalid Azar.

Analogy: What Else Is It Like?
- Throughout our lifetimes, we’ve come across thousands of lessons and experiences. Utilizing this knowledge, we can use them as a starting point to learn new concepts by understanding the similarities and then discerning the variations, extensions or combinations of information. Analogies are not always completely accurate; however, they are extremely useful when it comes to solidifying learning.


Diagram: Engage That Half Of Your Brain
- A diagram is fundamentally an image that communicates data or information. Using diagrams can be a more effective tool to interpret a large amount of information quickly and with the need for less resources or explanation to result in a high level of comprehension. We favor the easiest-to-absorb explanation as half of our brain is dedicated to vision processing, we may as well use it.
Example: Let Me Experience The Idea
- Rather than telling you how we think things are in a static way, we let our students experience it. It makes the process much more fun and engaging. For example, with other corporate training programs, the process may be to memorize methodology or findings made by others after they’ve completed all of the analytical processes. We prefer you to make your own progress and feel like you’ve contributed to your own learning.


Plain-English Description: Use Your Own Words
- After experiencing an idea, you should be able to describe it in your own words and in a way that excites you. For example, imaginary numbers seem to point North, and we can get to them with a single clockwise turn. Oh! I guess they can point South too, by turning the other way. Four turns get us pointing in the positive direction again and it seems like two turns points us backwards. These are all accurate conclusions; however, they are in plain English and not in the language of math making it easier to remember, visualize and understand.
Technical Description: Learn The Formalities
- The final step in our process is to transition your newly gained knowledge into the formal notation. Using an analogy to describe this process, it’s like creating sheet music for a song that you’ve written in your head so that other people can read and play it. In the case of our data science training, math is the sheet music we use to share our ideas, we give our students the opportunity to make an idea their own.
