Many people are reluctant to use the computer because they are afraid of breaking something or asking a question that supposedly seems too simple. This is exactly where we from Technik daheim come in. We come to your home and practice on your own PC or laptop, the way you use it anyway. There are no silly questions and no time pressure. Step by step we show you how to move around confidently, from switching on through saving files to writing your first email. In the end you should not just have watched but practiced yourself, so what you have learned really sticks. If you would like to go deeper afterwards, suitable follow-ups are our Office course, the email course and the Windows course; all course prices are on the prices page.
What You Learn in the Computer Course at Home
We tailor the course entirely to you. Whether you sit in front of a computer for the first time or already know a few basics and want to become more confident: we start where you are. You set the topic, and we explain it until it sticks. We always work with examples from your everyday life rather than abstract exercises. If you want to write to a granddaughter, look up an appointment online or send a photo, that is exactly what we practice. This way you quickly notice that the computer is not an opponent but a tool that makes daily life easier. And because you learn at home on your own device, you can calmly repeat everything again the same day.
Operate the device safely
Switching on and off, mouse and keyboard, opening and closing windows, adjusting volume and font size. The basics so you can no longer get anything muddled up.
Safe on the internet
Open websites, search for something, create bookmarks. And just as important: how to recognize dubious sites and scams before anything happens.
Write an email
Compose and send messages, open and attach files, save addresses. On request we deepen this in the dedicated email course.
Files and photos
Save, find and organize documents and images. This way nothing disappears into nowhere and you always know where your things are.
Security and updates
What updates are and why they matter, what a password protects, and how to read warning messages correctly without being unsettled.
Your chosen topic
Would you like to write letters, print a photo or join a video call? Let us know in advance and we prepare the course accordingly.
A Course in Familiar Surroundings That Follows Your Lead
In a classroom things often move too fast and the examples rarely match your own device. With us it is different. We come to you, sit down with you at your familiar computer and work with exactly the programs you use anyway. This way what you learn can be applied directly and does not feel abstract. You do it yourself, we sit beside you and help when something gets stuck. On request we write down the most important steps as a small cheat sheet so you can look them up even after the appointment.
- One-to-one tuition, tailored entirely to you
- On your own PC or laptop, with your programs
- At your own pace, with as many repetitions as needed
- Notes and a cheat sheet to look things up, on request

How a Course Appointment Works at Your Place
So you know what to expect, here is the typical flow. You set the pace, and we explain every step as often as you like. No one has to prepare; a switched-on computer is enough. We bring all the patience needed and give you time for every question. If something does not work on the first try, that is completely normal and part of learning. We simply take a step back and repeat until you feel confident.
Discuss your goal
At the start we briefly clarify what you would like to learn or achieve today. This way we use the time for exactly the topics that matter to you.
Practice together
We show a step, then you do it yourself. As often as it takes until it feels familiar. Questions are welcome at any time, even the same one a second time.
Repeat and consolidate
We go through the important steps once more without helping, so you notice that you can do it on your own.
Take the cheat sheet
On request we write down the key steps clearly so you can confidently look them up at home after the appointment.
