The Tech Wizard
Updated for the week of July 20 – 26, 2026
Every week I meet with seniors, professionals, and folks who just want their technology to feel a little less intimidating. Here’s what’s on my teaching calendar right now — if any of it sparks your interest, reach out.
Monday, July 20 — Behind the scenes
A quieter start to the week — time to prep this week’s classes and plan ahead. I’m also on the student side of the screen for my own weekly Robot Builder’s Club session, keeping my skills sharp so I can pass the best of it along to you.
Tuesday, July 21 — iPhone Essentials
This afternoon I’m working with a small group in iPhone Essentials here at The Tech Wizard in Brentwood. We take the phone one piece at a time — the settings, the shortcuts, and the everyday features that make it feel like yours instead of a mystery. Small group, lots of hands-on practice, every question welcome.
Wednesday, July 22 — Class day at the Senior Center
Both classes meet today at the Culver City Senior Center. In iPhone Basics (12:30) we’re learning to watch video on the iPhone — how to play, pause, adjust the volume, turn on captions, and comfortably find shows, news, and videos in apps like YouTube, Apple TV, and Netflix. In Advanced iPad (2:30) we’re continuing our AI series with “Help me choose!” — using AI as a thinking partner to weigh options and make everyday decisions. We go step by step, at a pace that works, and stop for every question. Come curious and bring whatever’s been puzzling you.
Thursday, July 23 — Behind the scenes
No public class today. I’m on the student side myself for my weekly Robot Assistant session — continuing education so I can bring the useful parts back to you — and using the rest of the day to prep and plan.
Friday, July 24 — Behind the scenes
A day for catching up and getting ready for the week ahead. If you’ve been meaning to reach out about private coaching, this is a good day to catch me.
