Hello ,
I am one of those people diagnosed with Dyslexia in their thirtys, i am now fifty three and the computer age has just passed me by.
I use a Pc every a day for internet resurch and E-mail.

My problem is no matter how many times I am shown by well meaning people the following remain a total mistery to me-


filing anything in a folder, making a folder,. detaching and attaching anything , using anything at all for letters ,lists or any writen work other than E mail.

I print off every thing just becase its the only way I know I have it !!!!

Does anyone know of a teaching astablishment which specilizes in the very!!!!! basic adult computer skills?
i donot mind learning along side children if there is no one who can help from the adult computer world.thank you Suzanne UK.

Have you tried a adult education class?
These are normally run by the local authority you can find out details from your local library.
They run basic classes in computers and advanced classes. I have done the basic class.
I hope you find this useful.

I learned to use a computer on a Mac. I still have problems finding things, but a Mac makes it a little easier because they use image icons. I wonder if the person who designed the mac was dyslexic. When I get on my husband's PC, I am totally lost and unable to do anything.
