“This was my first time volunteering and ‘formally’ teaching somebody …
both [my client] and I learned quite a bit … somebody like me takes computers for granted and works
with them from day to day but someone like [my client] wants to learn how to use a computer but finds it difficult
and frustrating”

“One of the most interesting thing I have learned about this course is author credibility …
it allowed me to be able to be sure with the information I find [on] the Internet.
Before I did not know enough about searching about the authors of articles and how to look for bad parts …
But now it seems easy to find parts of articles and which kind of websites to look at in terms of type of articles”
