A basic but valuable for those that find their mobile phones intimidating and the technology frightening. It was a wonderful opportunity to see them grow in their understanding of how to use their smartphones, and laptops to navigate the Apps and Photos, to become confident and by the end of the course fluent with their phones.
Take a look at some of their comments and how they felt about the course and how they overcame their initial fear of using their phones during the course below:
Elaine (Aged 68)
"The course was an uncomplicated and practical introduction on how to navigate my smartphone and laptop. Gavin taught me how to maximise my smartphone and to download Apps for my phone, like WhatsApp, Google Photos, Zoom and more. Every lesson was accompanied by detailed notes. This is a course for everyone regardless of ability and I completed the course feeling more confident and with a desire to still learn more. Thanks Gavin!"
Frank (Aged 70)
"Gavin is able to communicate his knowledge of IT with us "Oldies" in a simplified manner that we can understand and at a pace that takes the course attendees along for the journey. Those that may find it a bit difficult get extra attention. No note taking during the course is necessary as Gavin provides comprehensive notes via email after each lesson. We do a lot of our learning by doing "Hands On" with his supervision to guide us. All in all, a very worthwhile course."
Trish (Aged 74)
"This course covered all the basic areas for the use of a smartphone, tablets and laptops. We learnt how to use Apps on our smartphones, the technology and technical terminologies related to our devices. There is ample time to ask questions and get help if you need it. I would recommend this course to anyone needing help to learn the basics of how to use their smartphone, tablet or laptop."
...........
So, if you feeling the same, don’t let that get in your way as you will easily overcome this. Age is not a barrier, it’s easy to learn to use your phone along with others like you.
Our next intake is this week Friday at 10am, so why not contact me to put your name down and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in my home with a classroom style set up for the course with other likeminded folks.
Here is what the course covers
- Device Basics - Mobile Operating Systems AND Navigating the Smartphone and the iPhone (Buttons, slots, and Screens)
- Setting up Passwords for Smartphone Apps AND Smartphone/Google ID & Apple ID Setup - What is an Application (App)
- How to download Apps and practice Sessions on Zoom, WhatsApp
- How to take a Screenshot & how to use OneNote
- Your Smartphone Settings, Device Basics, Passwords/PINS
- Cloud Storage, Bluetooth, Internet, Contacts & Photos (Google Photos)
- Navigating Your Laptop/Tablet and How to eMail
