Hi, I’m Nickie and I'm passionate about helping adults use technology to improve their lives in a positive way. In these classes you'll find the best resources on using popular social media platforms, ride sharing apps, online safety, podcasts and more! I believe technology can help anyone, no matter what age or background. If you or someone you know has ever become frustrated when trying to use technology or experienced “technology overwhelm” then you’re in the right place. We’re here to help you along your technology journey and ensure you never have to ask a teenager for tech help again. With my B.A. from Iowa State University, I've owned Social Club Simple for over 5+ years and have helped tens of thousands of adults with practical and useful technology training. I'm HQ in MN, and am grateful to help others all over the United States.
