I will help you learn to make better use of the technology in your life:
Your computer, tablet, and smart phone
Your TV and basket of remotes
Lots of people can do a quick demo for you — I’ll make sure you’re comfortable being in the driver’s seat.

“I can’t imagine anyone more suited to teaching non-techies like me how to live in the electronic world, and he does it with thoughtfulness and consideration, and completely without intimidation.”
“Dave is a wonderful teacher. Patience is his virtue. I was apprehensive about keeping up, but Dave paced the session very well.”
“We both thank you for your great work with us. We appreciate your help. We are grateful for your promptness and ease of working with you.”
“I credit Dave with helping me to become much more assertive, less afraid, and definitely more confident in grasping technology skills. He is consistently patient and able to adapt to what I call my primitive level of technology skills. And, Dave’s overall demeanor is most professional and yet warm and totally nonthreatening.”
“Working with Dave has been a consistent pleasure... he is steady, easy to work with, and so, so patient with any question presented to him. Dave is also very responsive and I can count on him to come through with the answers.”
“In my mind Dave’s strengths are his kindness, intelligence, timeliness, and fairness.”
“I strongly endorse Dave as a tutor for the timid as well as the advanced computer user. He listens well. He explains clearly and kindly how to proceed with what you want to learn. He encourages exploration and practice and offers a very nice follow-up service by telephone when needed. He responds promptly when called and can usually be at your side in your home within a day or two. He is unflagging in helping me learn to love the challenge of new learning on the computer.”
