Mobile application development
I have received many emails inquiring about mobile application development. My advice is you should go directly to the internet to look for these information because there are many “free tutorials” that can teach you to build these apps so you can start create your own apps right away. Many students told me that it took them about one to two weeks to build mobile apps. Many already sold their apps at Apple's stores or on the internet websites, some make money and some gave them for free. There are several hundred thousands of these apps already exists in every mobile platforms (Apple's iOs, Google's Androids, Microsoft's mobile window etc.).
My recommendation is if you are interested, you could go to Apple, Google, or Microsoft websites since they also provide tutorial instructions and give you a lot of tools to make it easy to build mobile apps for them. I include few websites here for your reference. It is a good learning experience for software students as well as people who want to become professional apps developers. Good luck and enjoy your learning:
