Cornwall Computer Lessons
Resources
Training to suit your abilities and needs, at a pace to allow you to learn.
MS WORD
​
Microsoft Word is a powerful word processing programme that allows you to write letters and documents. You can also insert pictures and diagrams and make text look different with the use of different type faces and colours
​
I can show you how to set up an email account if you don't already have one, and show you how to send and receive emails, attachments and contact lists, and how to organise folders within the email account.
MS PUBLISHER
​
Microsoft Publisher is similar in many ways to Word, but it also gives you the opportunity to use the programme to make a document, such as a poster, ready for printing, and allows more freedom to insert pictures and graphics
INTERNET
​
A large part of my teaching has involved showing people how to use the internet to find information, news, current events, and generally any information they might wish to see. How to search more easily, what browsers and websites to use, and also how to stay safe online, and buy (and sell) with confidence.
I can also show you how to set up and use Skype
​
MS EXCEL
​
Excel is a powerful spreadsheet programme that gives you the opportunity of setting up accounts spreadsheets and performing automatic calculations with the help of various functions. It can also be used to set up databases for mailmerge programmes
​
IPADS & TABLETS
​
I have set up and run many classes in the use of these machines, how to set them up and how to download apps from the interent. How to use Facetime or Skype. How to email photographs. How to use a tablet to watch television or listen to the radio.
Many people are buying tablets these days in preference to conventional computers and I can show you the advantages and disadvantages.
