Don't just jump into where you are not capable of learning simply because your friends are at that level,  learn at your individual pace. Everyone practicing computers has a target goal, be focused and determined in your work, equally, you should learn to utilize them at their own pace.

2.  Be patient

Nothing good comes easy in life, some scientists like Edison make 1000 attempts to invent electricity before accomplishing it. Learning computers is simple but somehow complicated, therefore you need to be patient irrespective of the challenges and hard times you are passing through.

3.  Know technical terms

When practicing computers, the most important thing to overlook is relevant technical terms. Rather than just facts, data is your information, your work. A program is a set of instructions for a personal computer.

4. Learn Microsoft Office

As a beginner in computer science, it's necessary to practice Microsoft Office as it has several tools which work in all fields. If you want to be familiar with Microsoft Office, you should visit YouTube for tutoring.

5.  Keep practicing

The main problem that is hindering people from accomplishing their race in computer science is that they spend most of their time in theoretical aspects and forget practicing. If you are having the perspective that computer practice is easier than theories, you are definitely wrong. Start practicing now. 

6. Discover the fun side

Computers are very difficult to some people because they keep on digging the hard part without trying the fun aspect, computer itself is fun. Look for interesting games like solitaire, cheese, sudoku and others, download them and have fun. This will cool your tempers and make you have more interest in learning computers. 

7.  Keep back-up data

One of the most common mistakes people make is failing to back up vital data. There are a plethora of options for backing up your data, so there is no excuse for not doing so. The best approach to backup is on a USB drive, although moving files to another location is the very minimum technique of data backup.

8. Know how to take a screenshot

The problem of taking a computer screenshot is common among the beginners in computer science, it's not something difficult though. To achieve this, just click on the print screen on the computer's keyboard.

9.   choose a strong password

The weak password you choose to secure your accounts is a popular entrance point for cyber-attacks. Having the same password for every account (email, social media, forums, gaming, etc.) is risky enough; using a single weak password for everything is a recipe for disaster.

10. Use Cortana
