Many people would like to write a proper letter on the computer, create a small table or save a document so they can find it again later, but they do not quite dare to. That is exactly where our office course comes in. At Technik daheim we come to your home and learn together on the device you use every day anyway. This way you do not have to transfer anything to an unfamiliar program but practice in your own familiar surroundings. We explain calmly, repeat as often as you like, and in the end you can apply what you have learned right away. Whether Word, the basics of Excel or proper saving and printing: you decide what we look at. You can catch up on the basics in our computer course, we practise correspondence in the email course, and for working from home we can also set up your home office.
What We Practice Together in the Office Course
We tailor the course entirely to you. Some only want to be able to write and print a letter, others want to create a table for expenses or a list of members. Just tell us what it is about, and we will go through exactly that step by step. No one has to learn everything at once. We are regularly out in the neighbourhood, for instance with tech help in Pattensen.
Texts and letters in Word
We show you how to start a letter, set paragraphs, make text bold or larger and make the whole thing look tidy, without technical jargon.
Excel basics
Create a simple table, enter numbers, label columns and calculate with the automatic sum, for example for the household budget or a list.
Saving and finding again
Where does the document go when I save it? We explain file names, folders and the difference between Save and Save As, so you never lose anything again.
Printing properly
From the screen onto paper: look at the print preview, choose the right page and number of copies and check that everything fits onto the sheet.
Order on the computer
Create folders, name documents sensibly and store them so you can find your letters and tables again very easily later.
Using templates
On request we set up a small template for you, for example for recurring letters, so that next time you only need to fill it in.
Learning on Your Own Device, Calmly
Your Pace, Your Computer, Your Topics
During the course you sit at your own computer or laptop, and we sit beside you. This way you learn on exactly the device you will use later, with the buttons and the view you know. That is much more pleasant than working on an unfamiliar machine. We proceed as slowly as you wish, repeat every step and patiently answer every question. There are no silly questions, and no one is watching the clock. On request we write down the most important steps as a small cheat sheet so you can look everything up again calmly after the appointment. This often comes up in connection with Windows course.
- You practice on your own device, not on unfamiliar technology
- Everything at your own pace, repeated as often as needed
- On request notes or a cheat sheet to look things up
- Topics freely selectable, from letter to table
No Worries, We Start Right From the Beginning
Many people hesitate because they believe they are too clumsy or too slow for the computer. We take that worry away right at the start. With us there is no pace you have to keep up with and no question that would be too simple. You will not break anything on the computer by pressing a button, and if something ever does look different than expected, we calmly show you how to get back to the starting point. It is precisely this trying things out without fear that is the fastest way to become more confident. What that looks like locally is shown by tech help in Springe.
We deliberately avoid technical jargon. Instead of talking about file paths, formats or toolbars, we explain everything with words from your everyday life and with comparisons you know. And if a term is ever still unclear, simply ask, as often as you like. We are happy to repeat and keep looking for a fitting explanation until it clicks for you. This keeps the course pleasant from beginning to end and never overwhelming. Also worth reading is our article on the right backup strategy.
Who the Office Course Is For
Seniors
Would you like to write and print letters to authorities, the club or the family on the computer yourself? We take our time and explain everything without rushing and without jargon.
Families and private individuals
A table for the household budget, a cover letter for an application or a notice for the party: we show how it works so you can take over yourself.
Volunteers and small clubs
Create and manage member lists, invitations or minutes properly. Practical basics you can use right away in club life.

How a Course Appointment at Your Home Works
So you know what to expect: an appointment always follows the same calm process. You do not need to prepare anything except the device you want to learn on. We sort out the rest together on site. Our offer under data backup fits well alongside.
Brief discussion
At the start we clarify what you would like to learn and how confident you feel so far. From that we decide where to begin, whether letter, table or printing.
Try it out together
We do one step first, then you take over. This way nothing stays grey theory, but you do it yourself right away on your own device.
Repeat and reinforce
We go through the important steps several times until they stick. You decide when to move on and when we look at something once more.
Notes and cheat sheet
Finally, on request, we write down the most important steps so you can follow everything on your own after the appointment.
So the Learning Still Helps After the Appointment
A course helps most when you can apply what you practiced on your own afterwards. That is why, on request, we write down the most important steps as a small cheat sheet, in plain language and with exactly the steps you need. You can place it next to the computer and read through it step by step for your next letter or table. Many of our customers tell us that this note gave them the decisive push to really do it themselves. This combines well with what we offer under AI course.
Should you later notice that you would like to go through a topic together once more, that is no problem at all. That is exactly what the 5-session card is for: you secure five appointments at a better price and tackle things calmly one after another instead of squeezing everything into a single session. This way your confidence grows step by step, and you keep the joy of learning. And if a short question ever comes up between two appointments, we are reachable for you and help without any fuss. What else we offer is listed under technology for families.
What the Office Course Costs
With us you know in advance what to expect. There are no hidden costs and no expensive packages you do not even need. You pay for the time you actually use and decide yourself whether one appointment is enough or whether you would like to deepen something later.
Single course 59 € per 60 minutes
The on-site course at your home costs 59 € for 60 minutes. During this time you learn calmly on your own device, entirely at your own pace. Every further hour also costs 59 €.
5-session card for 269 €
If you would like to work through several topics calmly, the 5-session card is worthwhile: five appointments of 60 minutes each for 269 €, that is around 54 € per appointment. This way you stay on track and save at the same time.
