Online Computer Support for Beginners

Patient remote help when you would rather learn from home.

Online computer support is a good option if you live outside the in-person area, prefer not to travel, or want help while sitting at your own desk. Basic Computing can guide you using a video call and, where useful, screen sharing so you can show what is happening and practise the steps on your own device.

Online sessions are useful for

  • Email, documents, files, folders and printing questions
  • Windows 11 settings, updates and everyday troubleshooting
  • Using websites, online forms and video calls with more confidence
  • Learning how to share your screen safely when you choose to
  • Getting written next steps so you can practise after the session

Online support is available across the UK. If you are near Falkirk, Stirling or Glasgow, in-person lessons may also be possible.
