iPhone Basics, one week at a time.
A patient, one-on-one iPhone course by phone and Zoom. We go at your pace, and every session has a plan so you know what we will cover.
Four sessions, a clear plan each day.
Anyone new to the iPhone, or who has one but only uses a small part of it, at any age. We go at your pace, so any week can take longer, and extra sessions are available. By phone and Zoom from anywhere, with in-person visits available near Montgomery, Alabama.

Good to know.
Do I need to own an iPhone already?
Yes, use the phone you have. If you are thinking about buying one, ask us before you do.
How can you help with my phone over the phone?
We set up your first session by email, then talk you through each step by phone while you do the tapping. For anything on a computer we use Zoom so we can see your screen. You stay in control the whole time.
What if I fall behind?
We go at your pace. If a week needs more time, extra sessions are available.
Can a family member join?
Of course. Many people like a son or daughter on the call for the first session.
Start at your pace.
Tell us your device and the best time to call. We’ll plan the first session together.
