My name is Penny Young, and I took this great opportunity to attend this computer course
to help myself learn a range of skill’s pertaining to the computer. I am very grateful to
Computer in Homes' for giving me this fantastic opportunity to learn a variety of things,
while I have no children at home, I do have my 12yr old grandson stay with me often, he has
several disabilities, and has a challenging life, he is very much in to anything electrical, and
I felt if I was skilled enough to find myself operating a computer, I would be able to share
knowledge with Tane.

Also I have been out of the workforce for a few years due to any injury, and I have to
change career paths, and needed to do a refresher as well as learn skills with the computer
to be able to re-enter the work force, this course has given me a great start to help me
accomplish this, and to be able to access all kinds of sites to help my grandson and other
family members.
Having a computer at home is going to help broaden my knowledge in lots of aspects, and
it’s going to be beneficial to my family. I was anxious at the start of the course, I guess
the unknown was frightful, but with the guidance and support of my tutor, I found I soon had
the confidence to continue.
Also having the support of class members to help was a great feeling, especially Annie
Patelesio, who with a lot patience and encouragement and support each week kept me
feeling able to pursue this sometimes challenging work.
I have found the 10 weeks has flown by and I would like to thank all the tutors that have
helped us accomplish this and am so proud of myself for finishing the course. I especially
enjoyed learning about power point, how to make cards, I knew how to use the internet to
access emails, send emails and go on Facebook and Hotmail.
