What makes us different

It's Personal,
Not a Classroom.

Most visits start with a feeling more than a specific question — "I just want to understand this better." And that's exactly what we're here for. We sit down with you in your home, at your actual devices, and work through things at whatever pace feels right. Whether you have one question or a whole afternoon's worth, there's no rushing, no judgment.

Most common things people want to learn

Using email & video calls with family
Getting set up on a new phone or tablet
Organizing photos & memories
Understanding streaming services
Staying safe from scams online

And beyond the basics

Using Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant
Managing passwords & accounts
Starting fresh with a new computer
Becoming more confident with everyday tech

None of these require a classroom — they just need someone patient sitting next to you.

Why Choose ElderTech

Personal, in-home guidance from someone you know — not a crowded class or an unhurried phone tree at a big-box store.

We Come to You

Learn at your own kitchen table with your own devices. No driving, no waiting rooms, no packing anything up.

The Same Tech Every Visit

You'll always see a familiar, trusted face — never a different stranger who has to start over from scratch.

Patient & Kind

We explain in plain English, repeat as many times as needed, and never make you feel rushed or embarrassed for asking.

Questions Are Always Welcome

The whole visit is built around your questions. There's no such thing as a dumb one — they're exactly why we're there.

Focused on Your Actual Life

We help with the specific devices and apps you use every day — nothing theoretical, nothing you don't need.

We Love Teaching

We'll write down steps as we go if that helps. You'll leave with something genuinely useful — not just a fixed device.

Simple, honest pricing

One clear rate. No surprise bills. We always ask before doing anything extra.

Frequently Asked Questions

We show up at the scheduled time and sit down with you at your device — together. We go through your questions in plain English, explain things as many times as needed, and make sure you feel comfortable before we leave. Most visits are about 60 minutes. If you want to go longer, we'll discuss it first. If we finish early, great — you're not charged extra.

Not at all. Many people just have a feeling that they want to understand their technology better — or they have a long list of small things that have been building up. Either way is completely fine. We can start with whatever's been on your mind and work from there. Figuring out what's most useful is part of the visit.

That's exactly who we're here for. We don't assume any prior knowledge, we don't use jargon, and there are no dumb questions. We've helped people in their 90s get started with technology from scratch. We'll go as slowly as you need — that's the whole point.
