Comments
About Mike's
Workshops
for Seniors

Loved this class. Mike explained info in an easy-to-
learn manner. Finally feel like I have some basic, beginning
computer knowledge from which to learn and grow.
Looking forward to future classes!

J.H., Midland, MI

Hello Mike! My mom took two of your classes in
Midland and learned so much! She wears hearing devices,
is almost blind, and is 91! You were GREAT!
Thank you for what you do!

If you are in Michigan, consider asking your center director to have
Mike instruct a one day seminar at your center, using his "Help!..." book.

Michigan author and computer instructor Mike Wilson has designed a user-friendly 100-pg. book. Whether for home use or in the classroom setting, his large-print, step-by-step book will not bog you down with a lot of paragraph reading. Mike has "cut to the chase" by streamlining his book to no more than 5 steps (per page) to completing over 60 different computer related tasks! Each page (with few exceptions) introduces you to a new "senior-friendly" task you can learn on your laptop or desktop computer. Mike's unique professional book will lay open and allow you to access your computer with both hands!

Mike's reasonably priced book covers topics such as: Turning your computer on and off, learning Windows, locating software programs, basic e-mail and attachments; printing options, playing music, using apps, copy and pasting, visiting websites, editing changes, viewing the contents of a flash drive and external drives, using pictures as desktop backgrounds, saving a file, keyboard shortcuts, playing games, creating folders and so much more!

 

(The book is not for tablets or Apple computers.)

The book has easy instructions on about 60 things
to do -- too numerous to mention here.

 

GREAT FOR PERSONAL & SELF-TEACHING USE!
