If you mean how more do you want to learn, go to a course at college because you obviously know the basics

You can get a book. The easiest would be Computers for Dummies. That's a real title.

You probably grew up reading printed paper to get information. If you're in that generation, computers will be easy as pie. They're all about reading. It's very easy to understand. Just ignore the fact that it's electronic.

You will also need to get used to a few additional powers. Everything you type can be saved so you can reuse your documents (unlike the typewriter). You can erase or delete using the backspace and delete buttons so you don't have to redo the whole page. The mouse does the walking all over the screen. Just point and click to explore.

You most likely will want to learn how to compose a letter first and how to surf the internet. Look for Word to make documents and Internet Explorer or Edge to do the internet. Everything should be in plain English. Just read and understand. Nothing should go wrong if you click something. If you break the computer, blame the kid for not helping you.

press the power button on the system to turn on the computer
press the power button on the monitor to turn on the monitor.
if u want sound, turn the volume knob on the desktop speakers to turn them on.
wait until the computer boots up.
once ur computer booted up, u can get started by going on internet, typing, and more.
