Thanks for taking the time to school us on ITF+. I am looking to start a career in IT and I thought ITF+ would be the best place to start.

Hey TJ, I'm transitioning into IT and I am glad to have found your channel. I just started out with module 1 so far it's going great!

[JDJHB]

I have been trying to get into IT the last couple of years, I started off with ComptiA+ but it always felt like I was way in over my head. But ever since I found your channel, I decided to step back and start with the ITF, so far it feels more comfortable with the topics you are taking about. Thanks for the videos.

I’m going back to college for CIS. My classes are 100% online which is something new for me. Having these lectures have helped me tremendously. Please keep them coming if you’re able to. Just reading the book isn’t enough for me. The book defines terms with other terms that aren’t defined.
I can’t say thank you enough and I’d appreciate it if you could point me in the direction of any other resources.

This video is awesome you explain the definitions with real life examples

I just started studying for comptia IT F and I am happy to have found this channel. I see you only have lectures until module 3 but I still appreciate your amazing work. ❤❤❤

I am taking a bootcamp for security and now I am thinking I need to really start here.

Ready 4 Module 2 as soon as you finish re-recording them🫡 in the 🪖. Unless I grab certification or whichever comes first.

Hey TJ, will there be videos for Modules 4 and 5 coming? I love your series and approach and would love to not have to outsource for the last couple modules

Hi TJ - Great content! I'm brand new to this, so this may be a stupid question, but can you explain more about CPU, Memory, and RAM? My understanding is that memory is not part of the CPU, so I was getting tripped up in the beginning of this video around the 10-12min mark.

This video is helpful, thank you. Did you make any other videos for subsequent modules for the CompTIA ITF+ study guide?

[samgonzalez]

Would you have any labs that I can learn from on this ITF + course?

[Tigernation]

Hello TJ I’d like assistance with projects to work on while learning the theory of IT
