Computer Tuition for Beginners and Seniors


We specialise in one-to-one tuition for beginners, visiting you at your home or office at a time that is convenient for you.


We work at a pace that is best for you, and explain things at each step, so that you will build up your confidence and comfort in using the computer system. Throughout the sessions, you follow practical, hands-on activities and quickly become familiar with new techniques and get a good understanding of what is going on.


Training sessions are conducted in a friendly and informal manner, and typically last between 40 and 80 minutes. A range of subjects may be covered, as shown below, but we also spend time on the specific areas that are relevant to your own needs and interests.


Senior citizens

We have considerable experience helping those aged 50+  and have conducted many home visits in liaison with Age UK (Bucks).


Our tutor is familiar with the need to adjust his pace and style to match your experience and capabilities, and patiently explains those things that require clarification. Written notes are provided for selected topics, and these have been carefully constructed to be clear but brief.
