Thanks for your recommendation, Lucy. I had a very similar learning path. Not traditionally trained (I didn't study Computer Sciences) BUT am self taught. Managed to become a Data Engineer and now a Solutions Architect. I appreciate you sharing your resources - I am in the middle of learning AWS policies (service account access to S3, cross account readability, roles, etc.) and it's very challenging. I am trying to find as many labs as I can to practice because it is very fast paced where I work. Subscribed :)

I like the part where I don't have to sit through the entire course video but to practice questions per topic.
That's a good advice!

The "Always remember your why" tip is such a generally strong motivator! Keep up the AWSome content Lucy :))

Hi,
Currently I'm working on ccna but I'm gonna do a cloud when it's over. I was deciding between azure and aws. I feel aws will be the one I choose. This video is super helpful. "Be kind to yourself", that's the best piece of advice you gave me. Because I always feel like I'm under performing. Anyway, thanks for this video.

For the practitioner exam i would add the tips that do it as close to the completion of the course as you can because in it they ask a lot of questions that are specific to the course and if you let time pass by you will forget them

Thank you so much Lucy, I am a student here in canada and my goal is to shape my career towards Cloud Computing and Software Engineering. I always watch your videos to stay motivated and keep going. The key is be honest with your self, don't compare yourself to others, just keep smiling stay motivated and keep going one step forward every day and you'll see the progress in no time ( may be a little bit of time😅✍👍).

The last bit of your video (tips and tricks) just motivated me to keep going. It’s like you read my mind. I’ve been learning AWS-SA for a little over 6 months on and off and everything you said was true. I’ve almost came close to giving up, compared myself to others, etc. This encouraged me to keep pushing. Thank you

Winning the AWS Cloud Practitioner voucher will be a significant step towards building my cloud expertise. It will boost my confidence and open up new career opportunities in the field of cloud computing.

Thank you, Tech With Lucy, for organizing this generous giveaway and supporting learners in their cloud journey!

I loved the tips about Hands-On, because it's always a hardship to get market experience in a specific skill without previously experience. BUT with these kinds of Hands-On provided by Amazon seems like a great strategy to get over this gap. Thanks for the excellent video <3

I've just recently dived into the computer networking industry and was offered a job as a assistant network admin for a company in Seattle. Before getting this job I spent just under three months getting my CompTIA N+ and Linux+ certs and I also passed my AWS Cloud Practitioner exam after 3 days of studying. I know think I have a real knack for almost anything AWS and I either want to get in to software dev or Solutions Arch. If there is anyone out there with similar interest' I am always looking to make connections and work towards these goals as a group.

Great video Lucy. Thank you for providing the workshop link. I was not aware of it. Thanks to AWS team for putting together such wonderful resources. Very helpful for gaining hands-on experience.

[mexicanmax]

This is getting preeeetty close to mastery of the art of teaching lol. You are truly awesome, always share the best resources, and edit the best videos! Keep going!!!
I love watching the 10+ hour courses for any/all new technologies on YouTube from different credible influencers on the same subject and I get so into it 🤣. It’s like my eyes dilate, my neurons fire, and I just forget what time it is, then bam! It’s been 2 days and I just watched like 4+ 10+ hour videos 😂.

Thanks for sharing this, I am one of those people that you mentioned about having no background in IT at all. I’m actually taking some of the training classes that you mention for the AWS Cloud Practitioner through the AWS site. I was wondering how I was going to get any of the hands on experience, but you helped with that talking about the workshops. So thank you!

[rushinmachchhar]

Thanks for the workshop. I had actually no idea this thing is available in aws.

[Okwuosac]

Great tips Lucy.. 'Being kind to oneself' is such an underrated piece of advice. Thank you ❤️

[annette-in-vegas]

I'm going to be starting my AWS journey and I found this video. You are awesome! You're very concise and give out lots of info quickly, which I appreciate! So many YouTubers do not do this and they waste our time. Thank you for this video and I subscribed so I'll check out your other videos!

[niskala]

Thankyou so much Lucy!
I just applied for a scholarship to learn Cloud computing, i hope i pass the entry requirements and if not i ll just learn it on my own and follow through your beneficial insights here 🙏🏽🌷.

[faudgelle]

Very helpful guidance! I am getting ready to take my first aws certificate wish me lucky!! Thank you so much

[syedtaimoorhussain]

Your videos are short and to the point, which helps greatly!
