Finding Meaning and Motivation in Technology
Nowadays, it feels as if everyone is being pushed to step up their knowledge of technology. It is almost assumed that people realize how important and even "fun" it is to dig in and learn more about the latest technology devices and applications. There is almost a sense of shame associated with not being "techy" or not being excited about "nerding out" and learning all the bells and whistles that come with these phones or computers we are all being encouraged to buy use more and more.
For those feeling that way, take a deep breath. The approach and messaging in assuming or shaming people about their relationship with technology is plain wrong and is a disservice to society in general. Instead, why don't we take the approach of viewing technology tools to facilitate our individual goals and desires for overall wellbeing?
Everyone is on their own journey and has their own definition of well-being and their own journey and relationship with technology. If we look at these journeys from a parallel perspective, it might help to take the edge out of the societal assumptions associated with technology education and learning.
Let's start looking at what WE can get out of learning more about certain new technology tools.
Considering the seven dimensions of well-being from a tech perspective, we can decide based on our own wellness goals as to whether or not it is worth it to expend effort and energy learning how to use new tools. For example, looking at the vocational aspect of wellbeing, how can a bit of a tech tune-up help us with that dimension? Well, I think we can start by exploring the new job and resume platforms available from Indeed to Craig's list and more. While we are at it, why don't we learn how to set up a LinkedIn profile and use that as our first step into vocational explorations online and social media platforms in general.
At GroovyTek, we believe that nothing should be assumed, and nobody should ever feel shame regarding their relationship with technology. We are dedicated to providing a one-on-one resource for people to learn more about technology on their own terms while always being treated with the utmost patience and respect. So, moving forward, don't let people tell you that you need to be more "techy," instead, take a step back and think about how you can use technology to achieve your individual goals related to your overall wellness.

Client Reviews
My tech from GoovyTek has been terrific. He is patient, knowledgeable, and explains things really well. I enjoyed learning new tools and features on my smart phone and computer. They have made doing things a lot easier and more enjoyable.
Jennifer H
I had a serious issue with my bank website not being secure. This was a very technical problem. I used the Remote Session option to get help. My GroovyTek trainer kept at it until we finally resolved the issue.
Jeff W
Spectacular people. Knowledgeable, professional, customer focused and easy to work with. I have used their services a couple of times (because I am over 40) and they are great to work with.
Jim H
Very impressed with my trainer’s ability to provide thorough explanations and demonstrations. I have confidence now in knowing how to manage my photos, videos, and documents. I received my money’s worth of valuable instruction.

It is comforting to know if you have technical problems there is a Hands On source to get help. These trainers listen to your problems, find solutions and work with you until you understand the solution, their patience is outstanding. This is a great way to not only solve problems but to learn about the ever-changing world of technology; there are class presentations, small group gatherings or one-on-one in your home with kind, friendly, people.

Today was my first experience with GroovyTek and it was extraordinary. I learned so much over the course of the hour AND as importantly fixed the problem I was having. The trainer was intelligent and friendly. All support was given in a very collaborative way. I am looking forward to this partnership.
Barb S
I'm very pleased with my session today with GroovyTek. My trainer was able to fix both my computer and my printer (problems with both) and instructed me on how to correct the issues if they occurred in the future. We also made plans for my next session. I find GroovyTek sessions extremely helpful and convenient since they are in my home.
Eva S
I think your service is great! I have used it, and I booked 2 sessions for my 83-year old husband who bought himself a new Ipad, but didn't know how to use it. He's been ill, so it was a great help that you came to the house. Thanks for the service.
Susan S
I was just delighted and on my way to practice new found skills. My trainer was on time, friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient with this little old lady (age 78). I didn't have to take notes to remember - he recorded it on his tablet and sent me a copy to download so I have my instructions, step by step. So pleased with the service and the follow-up.

Very pleased with the experience. Knowledgeable trainer who was most helpful. Highly recommend the service.

We have had several help sessions with a GroovyTek trainer. WE could not be more pleased. My trainer takes all our questions and while answering types up his answers so even after he leaves, we can refer to his notes. I would recommend GroovyTek to any of my friends or family without hesitation. BTW, ALL the employees at this firm are extrememly knowledgeable and friendly.
