ok so finally someone who is the whole package doing a tutorial. I love your energy, your articulation and your knowledge base. I am older and Tech stuff does not come natural, yet I dont need to be spoon fed and have things repeated multiple times either. You do such a great job on camera and I look forward to listening to more of your stuff! Thank you!
This was so helpful. I am a reformed mess. Although organization doesn't come naturally to me, I do strive toward organization. I recognize the peace and ease it brings to my life. I married a very organized man 18 years ago and I have been adopting his ways ever since. I am an example of organization being able to be taught. I really appreciate your tips and how concise your lesson was presented. Thank you so much.
I would be LOST without Michelle! I am so low tech and she has made the start up of this remote instruction year so much better! SHE ROCKS and I've told everyone about her! They love it too!
I think you're an awesome teacher for fourth grade I have been watching you as of late and I think you're a wonderful teacher congratulations on your job
Thank you SO much for explaining this in simple terms. I loved how you made it a point to indicate every single click and button. You are a great teacher.
Your videos have been life savers for me. Now that we are teaching from home, I have been binge watching your videos and practicing. I definitely need to clean up my Google Drive.. I am the older teacher who hates to constantly be asking for tech help (but I do). This is a great help for me. I will share your link with my fellow teachers. They may have already found you. Keep up the great work and stay safe.
I am so glad I found you. I am not addicted to learning about technology thanks to your easy to follow and well organized presentations. You are awesome!
ummmm... so you are wonderful. truly appreciate your simple straightforward support. sometime i watch your video just to support what i already know. keeps me feeling confident and inspired.
You are amazing. Very teacher friendly and so easy to follow. I am organizing my Google Drive as I am typing this. I am in the process of watching all your Ed Tech videos. Thank you so much!!!!
I love this series of videos!! My dad who was an E coach and I are smiling ear to ear with your content. Google drive is a MUST for any teacher!! I use it to keep myself organized. It's great to keep that work/life balance!!
I love this series. I’m a preschool teacher and director that has not stayed up with technology over years. This type of video is so helpful to someone like me that went to college before technology became so vital in the classroom. Thank you for the step by step instruction. ❤️
You have no idea how helpful that was! :) I'm a double majoring college student (Education & Spanish) who works 30+, and I am starting my own business. My drive was becoming a real mess and I had no idea how to organize it. This was such an easy video to follow and before I even had any questions you had them answered!
In 5 weeks of teaching and using Google Drive for the first time, I have a lot of "stuff." This video is simple, to the point with great tips to help anyway get and stay organized. Highly recommended.
It's the best feeling to open my drive after organizing four years worth of stuff! My take away, everything has a place now! Thanks so much for your great videos!
Only stumbled across your channel tonight and it's awesome. Picking up some great tips for my classroom. Thank you! Watching all the way down here in New Zealand. 🇳🇿
I’m a student teacher in the UK and watching your vlogs and videos gives me so much inspiration for when I get my own classroom. I love the way you say it how teaching is and don’t try and sugar coat it.
You are such a breath of fresh air! So 'clued up' too! YOur youtube vids are my 'go to' for everything regarding my workspace (although I haven't quite mastered that yet!) but my google slides, you name it...you're knowledge and skills are excellent! Thank you! Nga mihi!
Thank you for this video! My Drive was a mess and whenever I opened it I'd cringe!! With some of your tips, I've been able to tame the beast! Thanks again!
Another idea that is a game changer and very helpful. I set my folders up to and created folders based on grades along with subdirectories for subjects. My icloud storage is a hot mess and is now sorted in google. This whole video has really helped me organize so many documents. My next goal is to start scanning and uploading documents. I have papers all over the place and it is annoying. Something calming and beautiful about being able to find everything at first glance.
I always enjoy watching your videos and I always learn something from them. However, this one blew me away and so simple. It was perfect to what I needed most and was such a great help! I had avoided going into my drive because it was such a hot mess. In less than an hour's time, I cleaned it up and now I am no longer frustrated with trying to find anything I need! Thank you!
Thank you. This was very helpful! I am new to Google Drive and Google Classroom and am learning all that I can to that I can do distance learning effectively. I have watched most of your videos. Thanks again! I really appreciate your help
Greatly useful and fast video of clear and brilliant guidance with general jsutifications to answer our natural Why-Questions in mind , at every turn of the topic ! Appreciate your great service to the humanity to progress further in the journey through the Solar Space ! Thank you so much dear Trainer !
I love your energy!!! I love how you've color coded your folders, & love how you explain everything so clearly & how hard you work to be the best teacher, & professional! 🙏🏼💖
I wish all of this was around 28 years ago when I started teaching! This would have made so many tasks almost mindless. Thank you! Us veteran teachers can learn so much from you newer teachers also. We are not always tech savvy like younger people. I watched your new teacher supplies post and got so many great tips. Keep doing what you are doing! I will take your ideas into my last two years in the classroom.
I am so excited to learn from you! Education is a door that someone opens up for you. Inside is a vast room with tons of possibilities that you didn't even know existed. Then the learner takes off on their own and creates according to their own world. Thank you for your inspiration!
I wish you had made this video back in September. My new school uses Google drive and classroom for everything and I was and still am clueless when it comes to Google Drive. You made this so easy to understand that I am now going to attempt to organize a year's worth of files. I can't wait for the Google classroom video. Thank you soooo much!
I am absolutely obsessed with having my Google Drive organized. I had a student teaching intern this year and by the end of the year, his drive was organized by units/themes. Organization is key for me functioning as a teacher! ha
A piece of advice for anyone with MORE than 9 folders: instead of putting the number "1" write it as "01". Google goes by the first numeral, so "10" will end up BEFORE "2" unless you make it "02." Had a very aggravating 20 minutes 3 years ago until I figured this out...,🤦🏽♀️
Yes! I forgot to add that in there. Personally, I always keep my "broad" categories to under 10 because I keep my "teaching" files and "personal" files in separate Google Drive. But you definitely may need to use this if you keep all your files in one place and have many different categories!
@@PocketfulofPrimary haha. I've had a few years of figuring this out. Our district uses the G-suite as everything so the kids all have Google accts via our school network and we are a 1 to 1 district with ipads. We've gotten very good with the ins and outs of this stuff. Which means my drive is a HOT MESS right now. Time to do some digital Kon Mari...because #teachersarehoarders and #digitalhoarding is the worst ...
Super Sab oh yeah.... :(. Can you imagine I ran a private educational tutoring company for 15 years where we tutored every subject kindergarten through college
I haven't watched the video yet (and I am waiting impatiently to do so), but I just want to say YYYAAAAAAAAAAY for 200,000 subscribers! I've been checking the count multiple times daily, and I am just SO thrilled for you! Happy, Happy, Happy!!! You are such an inspiration to me, Michelle!
Thank you so much for this easy to understand video about organizing Google Drive. It is so much easier for me to find files in they are in a logical place.
Ms. Ferre, I really enjoy your channel so I decided to subscribe. And even though I am a college instructor, the topics, tips, tricks, resources, etc., you cover so very well in many of your videos (and the energetic and enthusiastic way you deliver them!) contain wonderfully helpful knowledge nuggets for any teacher/instructor who wants to learn about online teaching and improve his/her skills. So, keep 'em coming, Michelle! We greatly appreciate the massive amount of time and effort you put into producing your very informative and instructive videos! ~Dr. Chuck
I LOVE your videos!!! I am learning so much and you are answering all my questions as I learn about distance learning. Can you please make videos for students to use to help them with Google classroom? In particular, how to insert a picture?photo into an assignment? Any other ones would be great too. You are a great educator and your kids are so lucky to have you!!
Thank you so much for sharing how to organize your google drive...I have spent the last day and half getting mine in order and it is going to help me tremendously in the coming year...
Fabulous! Thank you! I use Google Drive all the time but love your approach to organizing them. I need to share multiple documents with a large group of people. I hope/trust this will work!
I am not a teacher and I love your videos! I do homeschool my son so I only have one student and still have trouble staying organized! (Though I have my daughter at home distance learning now too. I’m LOVING it!!) This will be a great way to organize my home, my businesses, and school! I’ve definitely been using my google drive wrong
Oh gaaaahhhh! I have end of the year teacher brain y’all and it just didn’t “click”! I’ll rewatch a good three weeks into summer after I’ve “recouped” from this school year. Cause bay-beh this year has been one to remember! 😩😂Thanks Michelle! 💕
This was one of the most helpful videos on the whole entire internet. Thank you so much. I love Google Drive, but I was DROWNING in files, and folders, and more folders,😵 and I just needed a basic plan and explanation to help me get everything organized. Thank you so much for this!!!😁
I absolutely love 💖 your videos and every Sunday I see your new video and I enjoy 😉 it so much that you’re actually my favourite TH-camr and you’re my inspiration for wanting to be a teacher 👨🏫 in the future and I hope 🤞 your advice goes great with my teaching and resources thank you 🙏 so much for been a great 👍 person and I hope 🤞 you will have a great 👍 teaching career also your technology ideas 💡 I love and your actually the first one that said about google slides and google stuff except for Gmail but anyway thank you for encouraging so much people and been a great 👍 person for being positive I am positive too and it feels great !! Thanks 🙏 Michelle!!
Hi Michelle, I love your video. I will forward your video to my mom she is a 3rd Grade teacher and can use organization on her documents lol. Thank you so much!!
I'm starting my B.Ed in the Fall, and this video will help me SO much then!! Honestly, I wasn't the most organized student during my undergrad, mostly because I didn't find a system that worked for me. Going to try this out!! Thanks!
the Google Backup and Sync app allows you to use your Google Drive just like you would use folders in your PC or Mac and stores them locally for easy and offline access.
Video starts at 2:30 thank you for the high quality video!

True
Thank you so much. I am not a teacher, but I work alone, have no staff, and have tons of information to organize. You are a really good teacher!!!!
