How does this thing work?
Technology was supposed to make things easier, but for many people, tasks that used to be so simple are now baffling.
The problem is often that no one has shown you how your gadgets work. In many ways, phones, computers and the like, actually mimic what happens in real life, but without someone to help you join the dots, that can difficult.
In a few, short sessions, I can help you start to understand how to use technology to get the necessities done and even start enjoying it!
