How to deal with your not so net savvy dear ones?

Hello people out there...i seem to have a little no actually more than little problem here at hand, that which pertains to dealing with people who are not net savvy at all but genuinely want to learn how to work on the computers and the net. My problem here is that i have very short fuse when it comes to helping my near and dear ones or for that matter anyone who wants to learn how to work on the Internet or simply operate the computer. I am sure many if not all of us have faced this problem once in a while or at some point of time in our lives...right? Here i am looking for ways and means to make this process of sharing skills and learning computer skills a pleasant experience rather than the harrowing and lets just say not so good experience that it ends up becoming. I know that this might not seem to be the best of topics to contribute to or it might seem trivial but lets not forget that minor problems ultimately result in major hassles of Life!
