What is this Android From Zero course?
It is a long (8+ hours) online video course that teaches how to USE an Android mobile device, for example, a tablet or a smartphone.
This course assumes no prior knowledge, and it starts from zero.
Why does it exist?
We, the younger generation, often take things for granted. We know how to scroll, save a contact number, and open or install applications. Also, we know what applications are.
But many people have no idea about all this stuff because they did not born with a smartphone in their hands.
Those people need someone who’ll take the time and lead them step by step, helping them understand this mobile world. They often have no one who would take the time and effort to get them up to speed.
When they have some problems, they might get a quick fix, but they have no chance of understanding how their son fixed that problem on their phone.
It is a great gift
