Brisbane Seniors Online is a not-for-profit computer group that has been providing home tuition to seniors and over 50s across greater Brisbane, including the Wynnum Manly area, for over
20 years.
Learners pay an affordable annual fee and are taught on their own computer or device at a pace that suits them, taking into account the technologies they want to know, or need to know. Tutoring is carried out by volunteers who are empathetic mentors, skilled in teaching over 50s to use emerging technology and the internet, using methods that build confidence.
Participants can learn how to use email, social media, digital photography and edit photos, Facebook, pay bills, shop online, watch streaming programs on TV, identify and avoid scams, and how to keep in touch with family and friends anywhere in the world.
Brisbane Seniors Online is looking for more Windows and Apple volunteer mentors as well as more learners.
