Wow!! Outstanding!! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for, after going through several tutorials, which did not really give me what I was looking for. A SIMPLE and "TO THE POINT" explanation of how to *_join_* my first zoom meeting!! THANK YOU!! :-)

I have a beautiful community of senior yoga clients and I miss teaching them Chair Yoga. I am offering them online classes and your tutorial is PERFECT to send them in order to get them started on Zoom. Even your *virtual* presence is confident and reassuring, so I can imagine your clients appreciate you greatly. I will be pointing each of my clients to watch this super helpful video ... Thank you so much, Marcia!

This is wonderful. I am a new zoom user about to host a meeting. Some of my participants have not used zoom before. Thank you very much.

[vanessamiles]

Thanks for this Marcia. I'm having to get my head round Zoom for the first time due to home working in this time of Coronavirus. Anything techy scares the wits out of me and I've looked at other instructional videos and given up. You have provided something really straightforward that I could really understand and follow, so much appreciated. Stay safe!

I was really nervous about joining a Zoom call for the first time as I have an on-boarding/training scheduled for a new job working from home in a few days. You have helped so much to calm my fears. Thank You Marcia!

[samarckini]

i found this so helpful --thank you. being able to use this technology is no small thing for me (for us) right now. and your clear teaching style is deeply appreciated. grateful i found this. much thanks!!

[lorischrock]

You did an awesome job explaining. I watched this before I hosted my first conference call and everything turned out great. I have forwarded your video onto my co-workers. Thank you for sharing !!

[gracenorcott]

Thank you so much for this video. I'm using Zoom with my senior students to help them stay active while we can't meet for class. Your thoughtful approach was perfect to share with them. They were understandably hesistant but willing to try and several of my students joined me for a virtual class. I think your video really helped.

Straight and simple to the tutorials, friendly presentation and debunking the "mysteries and anxieties" about using Zoom for the first time. Kudos, Marcia! Thank you!

[apostle]

Needed an unintimidating, unassuming introduction to Zoom for my church members that haven’t used it and may not be tech savvy. Thanks for this!

[knjpups]

This was a very concise and informative video.. I am a complete novice when it comes to this type of computer stuff, but I think I can follow your instructions and actually do this.. thank you ... thank you !!!

[pambrown]

Thank you so much. I live an hour away from my workplace and often 1 hour "mandatory" meetings are held on my days off. I KNOW 😔! You are a life saver. I can join, along with many others, even if we are in the midst of enjoying what should be work- free time with our families. Yay! Thanks for keeping it straight, simple, and short.
PS... I watched several other "simple, easy ZOOM tutorial" videos and yours is truly the only one that can claim that title.

[sameaston]

No bells. No whistles. No fast talk. No loud noise. This is the perfect instruction video.

[michelleh]

Thank you for creating a clear, calm explanation of how to get started. I think that the older members of my organization will especially appreciate the easy, conversational tone of your step-by-step instructions. Thanks again!

[annsparks]

Thank you for using language I can understand and not overwhelming us with every whistle & bell. I'm 74; I sent this to both of my sisters.

[yvetteking]

As a senior, I thank you for taking the time to make this video on YouTube. Your presentation doesn’t seemed hurried and your speech is not rapid. Thus making it easy for one to follow. I feel confident about learning this program. Thank you, again.

[vickipowers]

Great workout(as usual) The slowness is just what I needed, considering how I'm feeling this afternoon !!! Thank you Pahla! IT WAS ALL GOOD !!!!

[wellwellwell]

You are one of the most pleasant and effective presenters on this topic. You must be treasured by your students.

[MsTamzina]

This is brilliant! I was feeling sick about making my first call. This is so clear and easy. Thanks so much! Xxx

[catrinhobson]

Another great tutorial - thank you so much, Marcia! It's so clear and straightforward, your voice is so gentle and you are so encouraging, and obviously sympathetic to raw beginners! I'll definitely share the video with my friends and acquaintances who haven't got Zoom yet and are a bit nervous of joining a meeting.
