Cell phone classes
My mother is 71 yo. She has never gotten the hang of using her smart phone. Are there free classes for seniors to help them with this?
Plenty of free tutorials on the web and a search will yield plenty of options. For example, start off with the basics at:

I'm not sure that there are any. But on the other hand, what is it that you or she wants to use the phone for? If it's a smartphone there are many features that may or may not be used. Phone calls, texting, surfing the internet, taking pictures, taking videos, watching YouTube, reading and sending emails etc. are all things possible on a smartphone.
If the only thing she wants the phone for is to make phonecalls I’d suggest looking into getting her a simple phone that doesn’t have all that extra stuff.
If there are smartphone features she wants to use I suggest trying to look up video tutorials on those specific features.
