Friendly, In-Home Technology Tutoring for Seniors
Hi, I’m Gavin
Whether you are struggling with your email, figuring out your iPhone, or simply have questions about your computer, I’m happy to help.
We’ll work through things at your own pace, in your own home.
“Where Do I Even Start With Tech?!”
“I’m too afraid to screw up my computer.”
“I feel stupid for not knowing how to do this.”
If you can relate to this, you are definitely not alone.
Many seniors feel overwhelmed when learning new technology or computers at first.
Even capable and accomplished seniors can feel lost when it comes to technology.
It’s not a lack of ability. You had a life to live, a family to raise, and responsibilities that came first. Technology simply moved faster than most people had time to keep up with.
I can help you become comfortable with your devices so you can feel confident, independent, and in control instead of overwhelmed.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
“Where Do I Even Start?”
Honestly, the best place to start is wherever you are at the moment.
If you need tech help with your laptop, cellphone, or tablet, installing an app, using Skype or Zoom, or learning the basics, that’s the perfect place to start.
From there, a few more questions will emerge that will lead to other questions and concepts that can be clarified and explained.
Those are usually the “ah-ha” and the ohhh-so-that’s-what-makes-it-tick moments. So don’t feel like you need to know everything.
Start with the question you have today. From there, we can build your confidence step by step.
This is the easiest way to learn.
“What If I Screw Things Up?”
The great thing about computers is that there is always a reset button.
90% of the time, it involves turning your device on and off. I know, I know, it’s very cliche, but it does work!
I can also help with Wi-Fi, email, printers, web browsing, and the everyday questions that come up when using your devices. I’d be happy to help you anywhere within Saanich, Sidney, Victoria, BC.
At the end of the day, the best way is to get a bit of tutoring which will help remove a lot of fears about screwing things up.
A little knowledge goes a very long way. This is more than simply computing, it is your digital independence!

“Most people don’t need to ‘learn computers’,
They just need someone patient to show them the next step.”
“Gavin is a patient, clear and knowledgeable guide with technology.
He helped me with my MacBook Air, as well as with a photography project that ended up being a beautiful Christmas gift for many family members!”
