Good to know.
My phone is a Samsung. Is that fine?
Yes. Samsung phones are Android phones, and we teach on whatever you have.
What if I am not sure which kind of phone I have?
Tell us the name on the back or where you bought it. We will figure it out together in our first session.
How does a lesson work over the phone and Zoom?
We talk you through each step by phone, and you do the tapping, so you learn by doing. For anything on a computer we use Zoom with screen sharing.
Start at your pace.
Tell us your device and the best time to call. We’ll plan the first session together.
