If you do not have access to a computer, you should make effort to get it. New computer can be purchase with a monitor for under $400 and used computer can be purchased with a monitor for under $200. If, you are not able to buy a computer, then you can solve the problems directly from a book.
Combinational Motifs by Blokh is an excellent book. Even the software CT-ART 3.0 is based on this tome. Unfortunately, it is arranged by theme, so you will have to jump around the book to order the puzzles by difficulty. Solve this problem by photocopying the book and the counting out the tactical puzzles and rearranging them by difficulty.
The Manual Of Chess Combination by Sergey Ivashchenko is also a goog introductory book with over 1,300 positions.
