Computer Classes for Seniors

This class is for the senior citizen who wants to learn to use a computer. Topics include components of a computer (keyboard, monitor, mouse, etc.); basic elements of the Windows 10 operating system; how to identify software loaded on your computer; a brief introduction on how to use the computer for letter writing; and the basic elements of the World Wide Web and email.

While taught on a Windows 10 operating system, the skills learned in these classes are easily transferred to other Windows environments. It is strongly recommended that participants have a computer at home. This class provides time for in-class hands-on practice and one-on-one assistance from the instructor.
