Meet Your Instructor: Merv Graham

Merv is a senior who loves helping other seniors feel confident with technology! He has taught computer skills to learners across Vancouver, Calgary, and Saskatoon, and now offers tech help appointments at Kerby and GFLS. He also helps recycle and reuse older computers through CLIC and ERA.

Merv’s beginner-friendly classes are interactive and practical, covering MacBooks, iPads, iPhones, Windows, and Chromebooks. He shares materials via email and focuses on real-world skills seniors can use every day. Merv emphasizes that he is not a hacker or gamer, so these topics are not covered.
