New Workshops

The lockdowns have finally ended and Tech it Easy has relaunched in Wigan.

And I’m currently building some brand new workshops.

Uh? Don’t you have loads of them already, David? Why new ones?

Because, dear reader, we’ve gone right back to basics!

Tech Made Easy

In the previous season of Tech it Easy, we did some workshops on topics like…

• How to build a free website
• SEO – how to get found on Google
• How to launch a podcast
• Google tools

And lots more.

But something interesting happened.

Listening

When you listen to people, you find out what they want to learn. Practical stuff. 

And when people ask some great questions, such as…

• What is copy & paste? Is it like pasting wallpaper?
• What do you mean by left click on a mouse?
• How do arrange your pictures and things into folders?

…then you know there are some exciting, practical and helpful Tech it Easy workshops just waiting to be built.

Back to Basics

So that’s what I’m doing…

Building the Tech it Easy Back to Basics workshops.

Go on. What are they, David?

The first one was about using a mouse. 

We determined what the left button does, and the right button too.

Then we used a mouse to copy & paste, move text, highlight text, change text colour. 

In other words, we took the fear out of using a computer.

Missed it? Don’t worry – here it is condensed into a quick explanation and a 2-minute video: What’s the difference between left and right mouse buttons?

Time to Boast

Hey, I don’t want to boast, but…

One attendee enjoyed that session so much that he even wrote a Google review.

Thanks, Derek!

Upcoming Tech it Easy Workshops

What’s next, David?

Glad you asked. The next workshop is about Email.

Hey, I don’t want to date this, for the sake of future readers, but it’s down at The Edge in Wigan, on Wednesday, 1st September 2021 at 7:30pm. 

We’ll be looking at things like…

• How to forward or reply (and “reply all”)
• How to delete sensitive parts of an email when you forward it
• What’s CC and what’s BCC – and how do I use them?
• Getting an email account
• Composing a great email

And in future weeks, we’ll be doing topics such as…

• Folders
• Using Google to find anything
• Simple spreadsheets
• Staying safe on Facebook

Drop In

Hey! Don’t worry if you can’t get to a particular workshop…

Because they’re all individual workshops. 

You can pick a topic of interest or attend them all.

Free Basic Computer Workshops in Wigan

Oh, and did I tell you that the workshops we’re running at The Edge are completely free?

Why? They’re run as a community group. 

And on top of that, I simply enjoy the experience of helping people to learn new skills and succeed.

Good Reason to Attend Tech it Easy?

And that is the reason you should attend Tech it Easy.

Whether you want to learn the complete basics…

Tech it Easy takes tech…
