I help you to learn how to do it yourself.
Many companies offer in-home service. Most are designed to FIX your machine
by replacing parts, testing systems, clearing viruses, etc. And sometimes they
offer software support too.
Many will not teach you to work with your own
system, files, equipment,
etc. without huge expense. Most will not teach you
what YOU want to know.
I remember how it feels to not know what to do with that or what to call it!
The only stupid questions are the ones that are not asked!
No computer or technical skills? Fine. I’ll do my best to get you up and running.
Use a computer at work but need better skills? Or maybe you are looking for someone

Reasons to consider having a private

Taking over responsibilities formerly
handled by a spouse or loved one.
Teaching computer skills to seniors is
special. Many seniors have special
needs (hearing, seeing) and need
assistance setting up some of the
features that will help them use
technology better.
Pressure to handle accounts,
banking, stocks, schedules, e-bills,
communications and more online
Adults have a lifetime of experience,

strongest areas of expertise.
