The technological revolution has arrived and it’s here to stay! Maybe you think technology like computers, gadgets and gizmos are just not for you, but have you considered all the benefits you can derive if you decide to embrace new technology?
This list goes on!
eGurus understands you might be feeling overwhelmed at the thought of having to learn how to use technological devices. Maybe it just feels like a lot of work to learn a new way of doing things. Or maybe you’re remembering a bad experience with something technical in the past. Or perhaps you feel technology is doing humanity a disservice. We understand that, and we encourage you to keep reading and consider the following:
What if you found out it was easier to learn than you expected – that you can actually have fun learning how to use technological devices?
eGurus proprietary lessons have been developed, tried and tested with older adults and seniors in mind. We’ve successfully taught hundreds of seniors how to use different technological devices, and they’ve written their testimonials on our website.
What if the bad experience you once had with something technical is actually holding you back from trying something new?
Technology today has undergone major transformations because innovators and designers are working to create what they call “transparent interfaces”. That’s a fancy phrase that simply means “really, really easy to use.”
Trust us. No matter what your previous experience with technology has been, you will feel like a technological master once eGurus is finished teaching you!
eGurus don’t expect to change your philosophical view of technology in a few short sentences. After all, long dissertations have been written by hundreds of academics throughout history. We ask only that you consider this idea. Just like any other tool, technology can be used for good or for evil. It has always been thus. A hammer can build a beautiful house, or it can do deadly harm to a person. Technology simply increases the reach and ability of the user. So why not consider increasing your own reach and ability for good?
What if you look back months from now and you find yourself amazed at how easily you can use technological devices that increase your enjoyment of life, benefit you in meaningful ways and help you connect with people you love.
That is eGuru’s hope and wish for you! Contact us today and get started on a technological adventure of learning!
Although most of these devices can still be plugged into your computer by wires to connect to the internet, if you wish to take full advantage of their portability you will need to set up a wireless network in your home.
eGururs technology tutors not only install and set up your wireless network securely, they will teach you a basic trouble shooting lesson and provide you with a cheat sheet.
" I am writing to you to express my appreciation for your team member Alex Scott. I have really appreciated how attentive Alex has been, making sure things are working well with my computer and printer, even coming back briefly without charge when I needed more help with getting the printer working properly. Alex is also very friendly, respectful, personable and helpful in every way, pointing out how I could improve other devices in my home as well. He is a great addition to your team. I am relieved to know that I could also call and get help on-line in 15 min. increments. Alex set up my computer with Teamviewer for remote support, and I look forward to also using this very important service. Thanks again and well done eGurus! "
" As we are two retired Seniors who have had very "people oriented" careers in the past, it was a breath of fresh air to have Tina come to our home, got right down to tutoring, didn't speak "down" to us (altho we are anything but computer wise), was focused on one subject at a time, was thorough in her assuring we understood and kept her excellent sense of humour throughout the short 1.5 hours she was with us. There is no hesitancy in our referring her to anyone - young or old - who need that understanding and loss of fear of in enjoying the computer. We WILL refer eGurus to all in our complex of 235 (Senior) Homes. Glad we had her ! Murray and Jeanette Elsom, Summergate Village, Sidney, B.C. P.S. (We would be happy to speak to anyone who would like to hear from a Satisfied Pupil.) *please contact the office for client's contact information "
" Tina came in to my home to give me a wonderfully comprehensive tutorial that showed me how face book works and what it has to offer. Rather than talking in the abstract, she opened her own face book to guide me through its many facets and opportunities. Her demonstraton showed me exactly what I wanted to know and how face book worked. Her description was concrete, very knowledgeable and easy to follow giving me the information I needed to make a decision. On her second visit, I asked for some technical help with difficulties I encountered on my aging Mac computer. Here too, her work and accompanying descriptions and comments were just what I needed. Easy to follow, yet technical enough to cover the points that were bothering me. She also had excellent advice about the need to keep in mind that an update of my equipment might be needed in the not too distant future. Her advice on this matter, too, was clear and easy to follow though still technically well-informed. I have no hesitation in recommending Tina's services to any computer user for in-house service, be that customer well experienced or more needy as I tend to be. Anne D. Forester PhD. "
