Christmas shopping is always difficult when you can't figure out what to get for friends or family. But when you finally find that one gadget you feel would be perfect it's like finding buried treasure. That is until the day they open their prezzy and don't know how to use it. John Lewis is running free ‘Technophobe Tutorials' to help customers master their new gadget gifts.

The tutorials will include how get the most form such items as Apples's new iPod Touch, getting to grips with DAB radios and how to make sense of digital photo frames (the perfect gift for the tech-savvy grandparent).  

The one-to-one classes are available to book in advance and are held throughout January and February on the 5th floor of John Lewis Oxford Street, a familiar scene to last minute Christmas shoppers.  

Remember, gadgets are your friend.  

Simply call the Oxford Street store and ask to book an appointment for your tech-fearing friend or family member.
