After Effects Text Animation Support

I need someone who can assist me in developing an AE text animation on a video for my client. I'm new to AE so would appreciate being able to contact someone who can advise on how to implement these features to help me gain a better understanding and learn this element of the tech. I have been testing the effects but am currently struggling with fade-out. If you're interested - please get in touch advising of your experience in this area. This isn't an outsourced job, but a training/mentor project. Thanks!
