Melissa Briggs has over 25 years experience of using many different types of computers, operating systems (Android, Windows and Mac) and different software suites, I can train you to a basic, intermediate or advanced level of computer knowledge at a pace to suit you, whether you use a desktop, laptop, notebook or tablet. I can also introduce you to all the other related accessories and equipment that you may wish to know more about, for example printers and scanners, to help you make the right choices.
If you are struggling with your smartphone, I can give you a hand with that as well - operating systems including Apple, Android and Google. I specialise in training people who are over 55 and giving advice about online security and protecting yourself and your computer equipment from unwanted attacks! If HDMI and USB and other such acronyms give you a headache, I can give you a simple jargon free explanation.
Notes for the topics covered are supplied as part of the training service. I am DBS (replacement for CRB) checked.

I will help you set it up if you need a hand: I can get your email account up and running, obtain your Apple iPad or Google Android ID (identification) so that you can shop online, or just answer your individual queries.
You can look at your photos or newly taken family videos and view them on your TV as well when you want.
This is a sample of my iPad Beginner's training notes.

Smart phones are as you might guess smart!
They are phones but also very powerful hand held computers.

All these phones are reviewed in Tech Radar, Which and other magazines.

If you own a stunning iMac like these, you will have access to all sorts of programmes about which you may not know as much as you would like.
For example, word processing using Pages, spread sheets using Numbers, photo editing using iPhoto, iMovie for video editing, Stickies for quick notes, Garageband etc.
You will probably not want to travel with this piece of computer kit as it is bulky and quite heavy, so a home session may be the answer.
Please call 07788 985764 if you would like to discuss the topics you wish to cover.
