What we cover
Topics
Bring your own phone, tablet, or laptop and learn on the device you actually use. We go at the pace of the room, and we repeat things as often as it helps.
Email, text, and video calls
Staying in touch with family and friends, including group messages and video calls.
Photos and file organization
Taking, finding, sharing, and backing up photos so they are not lost with a device.
Online privacy, passwords, and scam awareness
How to recognize a scam call, text, or email, and exactly what to do about it.
Online appointments and everyday services
Medical portals, banking, shopping, and government services, used safely.
An understandable introduction to AI
What these new tools are, what they get wrong, and where they are genuinely useful.
Bring your questions. Learn at your pace. Leave more confident.
How the classes work
Nothing is assumed, and no question is too small.
SilverClicks sessions are deliberately small so there is time for individual help. Instructors avoid jargon, write steps down, and are happy to go over something a second and third time.
For family members
Helping a parent or grandparent get started
Come along
Family members are welcome to attend the first session with a participant.
Ask about accessibility
Larger text, seating, hearing support, or a slower pace. Call 757-577-1016 and we will arrange it.
Share the scam guidance
Scam awareness is part of every SilverClicks track, not an optional extra.
