Let’s be honest. You’ve probably said it. Maybe your kids have heard it, your GP has heard it, and now Kevin “Mac” Mason at Lithgeek has heard it from over two hundred people across Lithgow, Bathurst, and the Blue Mountains: “I’m just not a tech person.”

Here’s the thing — every single one of those people walked out of a Lithgeek training session able to do something they couldn’t do before. Check email. Video call the grandkids. Stop a scammer in their tracks. Set up their iPhone without wanting to throw it through the window.

You’re not the exception. You’re just next.

“We promise to speak English, not techno-babble. No homework. No memorisation. No talking over your head. Just practical help, designed around how you think.”

Booking Is Now Simpler Than Ever

For the first time, you can book a Lithgeek training session — group class or personal one-on-one — entirely online, without calling anyone or turning up and hoping for the best. Our new booking system is live right now, and it’s built to be as painless as possible.

Not sure which option suits you? That’s what the shop at 85 Main Street is for. Pop in during business hours, have a chat with Kevin, and we’ll work out exactly what you need. No sales pressure, no upselling on things you don’t need, just a plain conversation about where you’re at and where you’d like to be.

Training Built Around You — Not Around Tech

Most tech courses assume you already know things. They start with jargon, throw acronyms at you, and expect you to keep up. Kevin teaches in the opposite direction: he starts with what you want to do and works backwards from there.

No homework. No memorisation. No assumption that you should already know this stuff. Because here’s the truth — nobody is born knowing how to use a wrench, and nobody is born knowing how to use a computer. It’s a skill, like any other, and it’s absolutely learnable.

What makes Lithgeek different is that Kevin is both a trainer and a technician. He knows how the technology actually works, which means he can explain it in a way that makes sense — not just repeat the manual back to you with more confidence.

Why Lithgow Locals Trust Lithgeek

Lithgeek — known for years as MacMason Training and Repairs — has been part of the Lithgow community since before “tech support” was a household phrase. We specialise in Apple systems (Mac, iPhone, iPad) and Linux, and we genuinely don’t do Windows. That focus means we’re better at what we do, and we know it inside and out.

We also carry out repairs, from cracked iPhone screens to MacBook battery replacements, with a 90-day warranty on all repairs. So whether you need your device fixed or your confidence fixed, we’re the right stop.
