Picture this
An ordinary day where your devices just work for you.
- You open your email and it's right where you left it.
- A text arrives asking for money, and you know calmly that it's a scam.
- The screen is set up so you can actually read it.
- Something goes wrong, and you have a good idea what to try first.
- You know exactly who to call, and you trust them.
Technology changes constantly, and nobody hands out a manual. That's not a shortcoming, it's just how it is. What you deserve is a calm, trustworthy person who shows you how things work, so you can rely on yourself first and on me whenever you'd like.
How it works
Simple, calm, and always at your speed.
When you book
Book your free intro call
Pick a 15-minute slot on the calendar, today or a day next week, whatever suits you. I'll email you right away to confirm, and I'll call you at the time you picked.
Your intro call
We talk
This is NOT the help session. It's where we get to know each other and I listen to what you'd like to be able to do. Then I'll suggest the session that fits, a Quick Fix or a Full Session, and we'll find a time for it right there on the call, at least a day out.
Your session is confirmed
An email confirms the time, with a link to pay and a link to click when your session starts. Sessions are paid in advance.
Your session
We work through it together
Click the link when it's time and I'll let you in. We go at your own pace, and you'll understand what we're doing, not just memorize the steps. No jargon, no rushing.
You keep the notes
Afterward I send a written recap of what we went over, in plain language, so you can do it again on your own whenever you need to.
A quick place to start
What would you like to be able to do?
Tap your device to see some of the things people ask about most, from video calls with the grandkids to spotting a scam text. Don't see yours? That's exactly what I'm here for.
Don't see your question? That's what I'm here for.

Have a quick question?
Ask away, there's no such thing as a silly question.
Type any tech question below and you'll get a friendly, plain-language answer to get you started. Curious about something? Just ask.
Friendly answers to get you started. For anything bigger, the first call is free.
Simple pricing
Pay for the time you need. Nothing you don't.
A short, focused session
One specific thing, sorted, so it stops nagging at you: a setting to change, a question answered, a small worry put to rest. Quick, calm, and no rushing.
A full one-on-one session
The best place to start. Room to solve a problem, learn something new, and leave feeling more capable with your device, all at your own pace, with no ticking clock.
Not sure which one fits? That's what the free call is for. I'll talk you through what each one covers so you can pick the one that's right for you, no pressure either way. One simple price, paid securely through Stripe before we start. Your card details go straight to them and never through me, so there's nothing to worry about and nothing to sort out at the end.
Sessions are paid in advance and all payments are final. If a time no longer works, you can reschedule and your payment carries over. Full details are in the Terms of Service.
Want the peace of mind of ongoing support? You can set up regular sessions so there's always someone to call, for yourself, or for someone you care about. Just ask after your first session.
Is your private information safe? Yes. During a session you choose what you share, and you can stop at any time. I'll never ask for your passwords, bank logins, or payment details, and no honest helper ever will. If anyone ever does, that's your sign to hang up.
Need a website of your own?
Alongside the one-on-one help, I also build websites, made around you and what you need, not squeezed into a template. Some examples include a portfolio, resume, solo business, family photo album, or event site. I handle the whole thing: design, any pictures or video it needs, plus the domain and hosting. You can see my work at soundspeedactionpod.com and on this site you're reading now, I built both. When it's ready, I can hand you the keys or stay on and look after it for you. Priced to fit what you need, just ask on your free 15-minute call. Further information is on the websites page.
These are sites that showcase what you offer and bring in inquiries, rather than full online stores. If you need to take a payment or two, we can talk through simple ways to do that on your free call.
Who you'd be working with
Hi, I'm Sohrab. A real person, not a call center.
I'm a filmmaker and storyteller by background. I've spent my career helping people and organizations share what they care about, and somewhere along the way I realized the same was true of technology: at its best, our devices are how we stay connected, creative, and capable. They're meant to empower us, not leave us feeling lost. Later I spent years on the other side of a support counter, sitting across from people with the exact goals you might have right now. That's where I learned the hard part is almost never the device. It's listening closely and making sure I understand what someone actually wants to do.
I've also watched people I love, family and friends, feel frustrated and talked down to, like the world sped off and forgot to bring them along. I started Learn My Devices because I think that feeling is unfair, and fixable. When we work together, you're in charge. I'll meet you where you are and help you the way you want to be helped, not the way someone decides you should be. My hope is that you walk away not just with the problem solved, but a little more excited about what your tech can do for you, because you've got the hang of it, on your own terms.
