What the Students Are Saying:
We took computer classes at the Pilgrim Senior Center because
we wanted to know and were eager to learn all the different
things a computer could do. For example, research, creating
tables, preparing outlines and graphs to show comparisons,
setting up and preparing business and personal letters,
learning how to retrieve a document from Microsoft Word,
learning how to print out a few paragraphs contained within
an entire document, learning how to forwards a document
with an attachment, sending information from the hard drive
to a floppy drive, learning about the filing system and
about the maintenance of a computer.
We appreciated having Kitty Pucci as our supportive and
knowledgeable instructor. Having classes during daytime
hours was a plus in meeting our needs. The class size was
ideal for individualized instruction to be given when it
was needed. To us, the greatest advantage of having taken
the classes is our sense of accomplishment. We are in awe
with all that we have learned from participating in the
classes offered. We found the relaxed atmospehere, the encouragement,
and the open dialogue offered for any questions before the
actual lesson began, to be most informative and helpful.
We enjoyed communicating with the many personalities in
the class. Being in class was a rewarding and educational
experience for us.
