Computer Skills for Work and HomeThe same way yhou learned to drive a car, held a job, maintained a home, relationships and families. So of course you can handle something as simple as a computer--if someone will just help you do it and explain things simply.
We just make things easy. Isn't that the point?. Easier, Better Computer Skills
"Being simple" has worked for us with lawyers, job upgraders, injured workers, students and writers, seniors and retired people. It's the best approach with any skill, from word processing and spreadsheets to speed tricks, Internet skills and new designs for your document, newsletter, or PowerPoint presentation. It can all be easier and simpler.
How fast does the class move? We go at your pace. We don't talk fast while you're still trying to understand a skill. And we don't slow you down when you've learned one level and want to move on to the next one. |

The California Bureau of Private PostSecondary Education permits LRS Computer Techniques to teach as a small training business. LRS is Exempt from the extensive requirements of large schools, because we do not grant degrees and none of our programs exceeds $2500. Law Firms and Corporations
Attorneys and legal workers need the easiest ways to produce accurate documents. Easier keyboard and voice commands, along with macros and other speed tricks make MS Word, Wordperfect, Powerpoint and Excel deliver the documents you need--before the messenger arrives. We can make your computer--or your team--more productive with those same shortcuts and the little "surprises" that no one took the time to learn, or to tell you about.
Students, Injured Workers, and More We have trained injured workers and other individuals, in our locations and in theirs, since 1988. LRS has been funded by all major insurance carriers for job skill training; we are registered with the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education. We have also worked with at-home individuals who wish to simply enjoy their computers with Internet, email, working with photographs, and other skills. |
People Who Prefer Private Lessons or A Small Class
LEARNING SLOW TODAY - I want to feel free to ask questions when I don’t get it
In 1-on-1 and small classes you can ask all the questions you want. You can try things two times, or ten times. You don't hesitate because there are 20 other people competing for instructor attention and time. We encourage questions. We show you how to do things easily. We are not impatient “computer experts” who wish they weren't teaching. We like showing people how to do things the easy way. That’s how we learned too, and it's what we hope to find in whoever we ask for help–a little patience.
LEARNING FAST TODAY - I don’t want to be held back when other people don’t get it
There are no speed limits in our classes. The class goes at your speed. And you get answers faster because it's not a big group with their own questions. And if you are in a 1-on-1 or small group class, you don't only learn "regular" skills quickly. If you’ve learned the whole 2 hour lesson in less time, there’s no reason the instructor can’t show you some extra tricks.
TYPICAL LEARNING - I understood the other stuff but I don’t get this part at all
Most people are a mixture of slow and fast learner. That includes most teaches. We all understand some things right away; but other things take a little while. This is the best reason for individual or small class teaching. It's flexible. We can slow down or speed at your pace. We can adjust to how you learn each skill. If one part goes slowly, we stay with that skill till you're confident. If you get it right away, we move on to the next step. The same way you learned everything else.
