Everyone learns in a different way. And many start using a computer at a different age for various obvious reasons.
So learning 'how to use a computer' will be different for everyone. Some go to coaching classes, some learn from their siblings, parents, friends etc, and some learn by themselves using 'trial and error' method!
So how did you learn using a computer?

I got my first computer when I was about 15-16 years old. My elder sister needed it for her college work.That was why we needed to buy a PC at that time.
I just started playing around and got interested. So the way I learnt it would have to be "trial and error", thanks to my elder sister.

I first learned about how to use a computer in college by taking classes. Then I would just play around on it and try everything. Sometimes I would use a book for reference..these days I use the internet to see how to do something.
Everyone learns differently. Some need to read instructions, some are hands on and other by listening.

Someone teach me how to open the computer. Introduces me about microsoft word.
In trial and error overtime i learned. I am reading the help topics and it helps me. I have time to use computer at night and i started to explore about microsoft word first like basic in typing, tables, bold, italic, underline, clip art. word art until i learn on my own.
Exploring the internet after i learn some basic. My housemate accompany me in internet cafe and i am an observer in a few months. When he left i learned to use it when i have a time alone. It start from the home i am living then in school during college, but much of my learning ion computer came from home.

I learned computer by someone coaching at me to hold on.
I did not forgot my best friend force me to try it even
I dont have any idea of this. First got puzzled many things
to look into but afterwards as I learned it , its easy to learn for it
when you gonna try. From her I learned to surf , search, chat, and anything
its free. Then it added when I have a class also free of basic computer
literacy training.
