What People Say

There is a ton of information in this book and it will be extremely helpful to senior citizens and us luddites who struggle with new technology. It already helped me with a simple procedure - opening up the control center on an iPhone. I struggled with this simple maneuver, searched for an answer online with limited success. Within minutes I found the easy solution in Take This Phone and Shove It. Readers can go through all the information systematically or look up the solution to a specific problem. Either way this book saved me from "shoving" my smartphone. Connie S., Chapel Hill, N.C. - 77 years 2025

"This is a must-have book for seniors--and anyone seeking to get the most out of their smart phone. I found the basic information presented in clear, concise and readable language and appreciated the informative illustrations. I was also delighted to find that Goldberg includes some valuable tips for more advanced smart phone users." --- Kathy L, Senior community resident in Delray Beach, 82 2025

As a practicing attorney for over fifty years who relies on my iPhone daily, I never realized how little I knew and how important an iPhone can be. This book changed not only my practice but my day to day life. I am more efficient and effective. Failing to buy this books is iPhone malpractice. It is as essential as the phone itself. - Frank L., Tom's River, N.J., 77 years 2025

"This was the best lecture I've been to yet! I didn't look at my watch once!" - B. R., Boca Raton Senior Residence

On February 17, 2025 I taught a class at a Hollywood, Florida senior residence. This is the review from Walt, 89 1/2 years 2025

Anne Goldberg…what a treasure! I hired Anne to teach my residents about computers and cell phones at Barrington Terrace Assisted Living in Boynton Beach, Florida. She patiently, thoroughly and methodically presented classes on smart phone use. She taught everything from how to tap on apps to how to order something from Amazon to how to do a search for old friends. Anne connected with quite a few of the residents, despite that 80-100 year olds are not big on technology. I am looking forward to reading her upcoming book, Take This Phone and Shove It. I am sure Anne can teach this savvy senior a thing or two about smartphones. Debra Dunaway, Director of Activities Barrington Terrace,

… Anne Goldberg has been an excellent computer teacher especially for senior citizens. She started with me as a complete

novice on the computer. Now I am able to send E-mails, pay bills, copy and paste, set up bookmarks, and identify hyperlinks. I'm sure there are many other tasks I can do but they are too numerous to mention. All

in all I can strongly recommend her if you are a senior in need of a computer teacher.

"Ms. Goldberg is truly a wonderful addition to our programming. She is engaging with our residents, is very warmhearted and knows her subject matter very well. She teaches our residents anything and everything about computers and doesn't hesitate to stay the extra time with the residents to get it right and make sure they know the material. We know that we have a gem in Ms. Goldberg.
