Why this matters
Banking, healthcare, transportation and government services have moved onto screens. Being connected is no longer the hurdle — using what is there with confidence, and recognizing what is not trustworthy, is.

Why Talk Tech With Chet
Instructions for almost anything exist somewhere online. What is harder to find is someone who will go at your pace, explain why a step matters, and still be there next week.
Nothing assumes you already know the words. Terms are explained the first time they appear, steps are shown in order, and nothing is skipped for being obvious.
Every lesson connects to something you actually do: talking to family, managing a prescription, paying a bill, getting a ride, keeping an appointment.
Scam awareness, passwords, account security and knowing what to do afterwards are taught throughout — not saved for a single warning at the end.
Lessons stay available to replay, alongside a glossary and downloadable cheat sheets, so learning does not stop the moment a video ends.
What you’ll learn
You do not have to work through them in order. Start with whatever is causing trouble this week, and come back for the rest when you are ready.
Setting up and using the phone you already own: the basics, texting, photos and the everyday helpers.

average self-reported confidence across seven assessed skills
Participants rated their own confidence before and after the program. The pilot was small and does not establish that all future Talk Tech With Chet participants will experience identical outcomes.

11.95 / 12
average objective knowledge score, unchanged before and after
Participants began with exceptionally high objective knowledge, creating a ceiling effect on this measure — there was very little room for the score to rise. The change the pilot did show was in self-reported confidence.

Real words from people who learned with Talk Tech With Chet.
Before joining this class, navigating a smartphone felt overwhelming. Your patient step-by-step approach completely transformed my experience.
I learned functions on my iPhone that I never knew existed before. I also learned more about keeping safe from online scams.
What once seemed overwhelming has become both manageable and enjoyable.

Who teaches these classes
Founder of Bridging Technologies ATL · Creator and instructor, Talk Tech With Chet
We don’t just teach technology. We build the confidence to use it in everyday life.
Technology education should be patient, practical, welcoming, jargon-free, and connected to real-life needs. People should leave with skills they can use — not merely information they heard.
20 years in law enforcement
Two decades of professional experience recognizing how fraud is attempted and how people are targeted.
Experience teaching older adults
Classes and workshops delivered directly to older adults, in person, at their pace.
Digital safety experience
Scam awareness and everyday online safety taught as part of ordinary technology instruction, not as a separate warning.
Community program experience
Structured programming delivered with community partners, including the City of South Fulton.
Common questions
No. Every class starts at the beginning and assumes nothing. Terms are explained in plain language the first time they appear, and nothing is skipped because it seems obvious.
Lessons are recorded, so you can pause, rewind and watch a step again as many times as you need. Nobody is waiting on you.
No. Every class is recorded and available whenever you want it, so there is no schedule to keep up with and no session to miss.
You can stop in the middle of a lesson, come back the next day and pick up where you left off.
A phone, a tablet or a computer — whichever you already have. Classes cover both iPhone and Android, and you can start with the device you use most.
You do not need to buy anything new to begin.
Yes. Safety is taught throughout rather than saved for one lesson: recognizing scam messages, creating and managing passwords, and telling reliable information from misleading information.
Chet spent 20 years in law enforcement, and that experience shapes how these classes are taught.
