- In this tech talk/tutorial I provide a simple breakdown of Zoom, including everything that you need to know in order to join a meeting hosted on this popular communications platform (from locating and installing the app; to joining a meeting from your smartphone, tablet, or computer; to adjusting basic audio and video settings, and more).

From a technology resistant middle aged woman. I thank you kindly for simplifying this for me. Thank you, thank you , thank you.
I just wanted to say that over the past two years of using zoom to keep in touch with my large family, just remember to swipe the screen in order to see everyone. You can also upload pictures to use as a background screen if you forget to tidy up the house! Love it! Thanks for sharing.
Hands down the easiest to understand video on Zoom for a beginner. I really appreciate that you stuck to the basics.
Thank you. You seem to be a natural teacher. Most instructors act like the students are computer scientists. You understand your audience. Great job!
Thank you so much for your easy, step by step guide. I'm a Zoom newbie, not sure what I am doing, which was really heightening my anxiety prior to a Zoom job interview. After watching this, I think that I will be confident enough to get through. Appreciate the way you showed exactly what to do too, especially as im a visual learner so this made things clearer for me.
OMG SSD, thanks so much for teaching me what I need to know about ZOOM. I watched 2 other videos previously on YT, yours hit the nail on the head precisely to my needs as a first (and probably only once) time user. Now I can join my upcoming meeting without losing any sleep. You deserve the highest honor YT could award you bro!!
I agree with you 100%!! He is amazing! ✨
I have a Zoom webinar in 2 weeks and this is the first time I've ever used Zoom so this helps. Thanks.
Been attending Zoom meetings for the past seven months. You do a good job explaining the platform in an easy-to-understand way! You covered basics for phone, tablet and PC. Agree with Joseph Paglino...this will be very helpful and good review for me. I use both a tablet and PC. Thank you.
It is silly, but I really appreciated how far you broke everything down. I may have known some of the basics, like what the microphone icon looks like, but it is the simple things that some people don't think of. Thank you for your walkthrough!
New Zoomers, easy to follow and remember this instructor. He's good.
Thank you. I just listened to about 6 minivideos from zoom. And your short tutorial made it SO much easier to understand the basics.
I can do it! Thanks Mike! Simple, easy to understand instructions, no background music to distract me, you spoke clearly and gave me the basics with enough time to absorb what you said and showed. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Yeah, what others here said...you are awesome! You've got another fan! PS: Actually 2 fans, Milo (my cat) approves too, he sat quietly on the table and watched you the whole time!

Glad I found you prior to my first Zoom meeting. I'm a 64 year old Mac user of many years but still at the elementary stage of so many terms and learning curves overall. Your presentation in this case was exemplary as you didn't take things simple to you, perhaps, for granted for the rest us. Your manner is relaxed and I follow it confidently. I look forward to following you. Best wishes and thank you. British Columbia, Canada

Trying to find Arkansas meeting with mayor for for franklin
This my first time with zoom
that was an excellent tutorial. I watched this before my first Zoom meeting and found your discussion perfect.
I've watched multiple Zoom basic videos to share with some adult students for a class starting soon and this is the perfect video to share with them if they need this support. Thanks!
Zoom is my next step in being a tech savy senior citizen, thank you for making it painless. Have a meeting tomorrow, and feel comfortable now
I did it - thanks to Mike!! Only had to ask my husband for help 1x!! (the techie in our family) Yay!
Joining my first meeting.
This was excellent (and fun!)
Thank you!
Thanks Mike...Great job. I'm invited to a Zoom Memorial, for a dear Friend of 53 years, tomorrow and had no idea how Zoom works. Thanks to you I can attend my friend's Memorial and participate with a memory.

Have not used Zoom for a very long time. You are an excellent instructor. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this info! I’m the Zoom “Contact” for my quilting Bee and your video made the most sense to me. Hopefully my 60, 70 and 80 year old friends will think so to!
You're welcome! Glad to hear that the information was helpful. Hope that your friends find it helpful too. Please let me know if there are any other tech topics that you'd like to see me cover in the future.
Thank you for your clear communication about using Zoom as a guest. You made it so much more simple.
One of the better instructional videos! Clear and to the point. Thank you.
Thanks! Perfect for me, a linear thinker, one step at a time --- plus a good sense of humor. Great help!
Thank you so much for mentioning the zoom meeting test!!!! No body else on TH-cam had enough self respect to disclose that information.
Am attempting to join a Zoom meeting this evening and feeling much more confident about this now having watched your video! Thanx so much. Sam

recent noob, late to the game. I've watched a number of "how to start" vids, and found yours on par with them...
until the end. Amigo, you knocked it out of the park when you supplied the test site address! I mean sure, you were clear/concise and spoke in an easy to listen to voice. But one of the primary concerns of a new user is "does my camera and mic work with this setup" ? You are the first to give this info, My gratitude Sir.
Thank you for a clear, concise presentation. I looked at several other "presentations" before finding yours--and was totally confused by them within 10 seconds. Since I am very much a visual learner, the fact that you added captions showing the url links helped a LOT. All I had to do was hit pause, jot them down, and then resume. I have yet to try all of what you talked about, but at least I now feel confident enough to be fairly sure I won't cause my computer to explode! ;-)
Thank you so much for this! From a recovering technophobe I have to say I found this very helpful. If I may say ...slow your speech down a tad and it will be even better. What is so familiar and straight forward to you is what I am trying to get my head round so there is a lot to assimilate! Thanks again from old Blighty 😊

Thanks for explaining thoroughly how to use Zoom Apps. You are a great teacher. I will go and practice now.
WOW!!! i loved this, because after 30 years of in person education i enrolled in a class...reluctantly screaming & kicking not knowing anything about ZOOM! i realized i'd better educate myself before i had the first meeting and YOU did a fantastic job of that! THANKS :-}
This is a great simple video! I'm hosting a zoom shower for my sister and I'm going to make sure everyone watches this first!
Thank you so much. I have a staff meeting using Zoom for the first time ever and I had no idea what to do. This is a very easy tutorial. Thanks again.
Thanks for watching! Hope your first Zoom meeting went well!
Hi Mike: I'm no techie, but you made it very simple for even me to grasp. You are a born teacher unlike many of the nice people trying to explain things on their demos, where I was left scratching my head saying "it's still Greek to me". I appreciate all your help. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have the heartbreaking task of learning how to use zoom in order to attend a memorial service for my dearest childhood friend. Your relaxing, clear instructions have taken some of the sting out of needing to figure out this app. Thank you again.
Brother great video, you get straight to the point without a lot of needless talking like they do on other videos, I had to click off 2 other youtube videos because of them overtalking the matter at hand. You're Right on point and straight to the point. Thank you! Just subscribed.
You are a phenomenal teacher & presenter. So simple and clear. I have a group starting and wanted a video that any of them new to Zoom would get it. You nailed it sir I've subscribed to your page here and look forward to other videos that you create. You made my life easy. THANK YOU!
Hello:Mike

Please advise.
Your tutorial was very clean on the smartphone and computer.

Thank you.
You are a natural teacher. Simple and straight to the point. Much regard! I have just subscribed to your channel.

Thanks for the Zoom setup I’m 72 years old and I found this quick and informing- to setup my Zoom meeting- thanks Tom, ca.
In my book you have set a new standard for excellence .
I can't thank you enough!!!
I’m feeling a bit intimidated yet after watching you, I feel a little more confident now. Thanks a lot
Thanks so much. I am going to zoom/test now.
I missed a zoom meeting because I didn't understand instructions. But made it very clear in a short time. Thank you.

Virginia...thank you! So glad I don't have to feel silly about the confidence thing...I'm not the only one!🤗😘
Thank you Virginia, I felt the same.
@@bintzubeida6755 I’m still kinda not liking all that stuff lol
Now I feel confident to join meeting! Thanks for such a great intro.:)
Much thanks...I have felt like a blind & mute person on our new meetings. Now I can do it!
This is the best and most concise description and instructions I have seen. Thank you
This was so helpful . Thank you for doing this. I am going to host an event for the first time and was a little nervous. After watching I am more confident that I can host this event and help participants if they have any problems joining.
I'm glad that you found the meeting helpful. Good luck with hosting your meeting. Let us know how things go!
Clear, direct to the point. Thank you!
This was the most helpful video I’ve seen as this is my first time of confronting the zoom app . Cheers bro.
Great tutorial. Getting ready to attend my 1st meeting so this was very helpful. Thanks !
Thanks for doing this. I have my first zoom experience today for a much needed job interview. Your video help put some of my nerves at ease. I really appreciate your efforts.
You're welcome! Glad you found the info helpful. Good luck on your interview!
Thank you for this clear and enjoyable tutorial. Have my first zoom meeting next week and feel much more confident. Your style of presenting is very reassuring.
Hi. I'm 75 and just got my first laptop. I want to use Zoom but was nervous. Thanks so much for this great, straight-forward info. It's just what I needed.
Fantastic. You look great & sound great...and after watching several basic "let's get started to basic zoom" videos, you were the only one to include the test run info I was looking for. Thanks.
Thank you, I've had a couple of interviews via Zoom and have come here to remind myself, much appreciated.
Fantastic video, thank you so much. Extremely helpful and fun to watch. You kept it simple and easy to follow 😊
Thank you brother , straight forward clear instruction this can save me from making a 200 mile trip next week to private arbitration hearing , especially since I was given the option to zoom or come in person 👊🏾👊🏾
Thank you. I've been trying to figure out audio for months so I can do speech therapy. I loved this video!
This is so brilliant. I share it with everyone!! Thank you for creating this awesome teaching session.
Greatly Appreciated and thanks for adding one of Rob Schneiders' best motivational speeches (😄)!
Thank you for very clear and simple communication on how to use Zoom, precise presentation with the basics covered in sufficient detail.
This was amazing. Clear and precise. Well done. I’m thrilled. I subscribed. You are THE man! Thank you.
AWESOME! Love the movie clips in the beginning haha! I've shared this with a bunch of adults invited to my Mom's 70th bday event. Hopefully, this helps! Thank you!
I have never used Zoom and didn't know where to start, but your tutorial was really useful and I feel more confident now. You have a lovely style of presenting. Thank you so much and take care.
This was super helpful! I can't believe I've made it this long into the pandemic without having to do a zoom meeting. I was really nervous that everyone would know some special handshake that made it work correctly, but this video completely set me at ease. The link to the test website was particularly great. Thank you
D
by far the best zoom for beginners tuition video I've seen!! Thanks.
Amazing video!!! I will be joining my first ever Zoom call in the morning and I was so nervous! NOT ANYMORE! I have never used the application and did not know where to start but thanks to this video I am very confident. I am currently playing with the test Zoom meeting to ensure I'm fully ready to go! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
As a retired techer I give you an A+.
Thanks, this was a nice presentation of how to get started on Zoom, and a friendly demeanor that encourages the viewer. I'll be running a meeting, and this will be most helpful for new "zoomies"
Thank you so much! You’re energy is so relaxing. It calms me. My husband always says I’m “ computer illiterate “. I missed a zoom meeting so I came to your TH-cam channel. Thank you. Now I will be ready for the next one.
First time Zoom user for a required class to become certified at the jobsites which the company I work for serves. This was extremely helpful. Thank you very much.
Very well done! I had been to several zoom meeting, now I know how to control my screen. Good tip about the zoom test site.
Thank you!
Great job Michael. Very precise presentation with the basics covered in sufficient detail. I feel much better about diving into the upcoming meeting.
Okay I'm ready for my first zoom conference. Thank you for the great instructions.
Thank you very much. Starting Truck Driver Training on Monday and the theory portion is on Zoom and I knew nothing about it. Now I’m confident. I subscribed.
Thank you so much for the information.
Was very helpful. Was invited to join a zoom meeting for the first time and I was a little confused nervous. Thanks again.
You're welcome! I'm glad that you found this info helpful!
Thank you. I was nervous. And, you made me feel confident. You were clear and concise your explanation
I subscribed.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
Thank you🙏thankyou🙏!!
I joined my first zoom yesterday eve and ended up just watching and listening in. (which ended up good cuz I didn't know what to expect anyway and I'm shy meeting new people in any setting...lolol)
Finding the settings took forever after the meeting started, and once I did I had no idea what most were for/how they worked.
I will DEF check out the Zoom Test Site! Thanks again, and sharing!!👍❤💯😘
Thank you for such a lovely video! I enjoyed those little video clips and your straightforwardness was much appreciated. I'm not so nervous for my first meeting now!
THANK you!! I have never tried Zoom, and this was most helpful!
I really appreciate your sincerity and explicit explanations
Excellent presentation! Bravo! You are a great communicator and covered the details in understandable language, even for us old codgers who are technically challenged. Thank you. Will be leaning on you in the future!
Thank you Mike for explaining this to a not so tech savvy guy. Extremely helpful.
Super helpful! Eased my anxiety about using zoom. Really liked the visuals and breaking everything down! Thank you!!
Just been to my first (invited) meeting - cold. Very disconcerting, I felt completely lost. Now, thanks to this very clear and straightforward description I know I wasn't too far off track, but best of all - there is a practice site. ..Just what I need! Thanks for a very useful tutorial.
Great tutorial! Simple (easy to comprehend and follow), relevant, and well put together. Kudos, Sir!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!

That zoom test site is going to be so helpful, its just what I needed. Thank you!
Cool thanks man. Really like that pointer for the test run, I've being anxious about using a condenser mic setup for a future meeting and it's good to know I can play around before the actual session.
You’re awesome! You answered my questions before I even had a chance to ask them!
Glad you found the info helpful. Thanks for watching!
@@SmartSimpleDigital I've been on 2 ZOOM Meeting before, but not for work, it was for two Birthdays
Thank you for keeping it simple! 😁
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
First timer here! Very helpful and straightforward. Kudos and thank you!!
I looked at a couple of videos and yours was by far THE BEST! I subscribed and wish me luck on my first Zoom event on Sunday...
I watched all the so-called "professional" tech channels, that's not to say that you are not professional, and, you broke this down much, much, better, and understandably than all the others I've watched. I'm very new to ZOOM and although I've joined one or two meetings in the past with questionable success, I really needed to understand exactly how the process worked in order to avoid holding everyone up while I try to "press the right buttons". You made it so simple and straightforward. You even included the "test link" which none of the others did. Now instead of being super nervous, I'm actually looking forward to the meeting. Thank you. I subscribed and looking through your library of videos, I'm glad I did.
Glad to hear that you found the info helpful! Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial. I watched a few others and you are the only one who tells us how to try out Zoom in a private test - @t. That was a big help to me. I was able to adjust the camera, position, lighting, etc. before joining an actual meeting. Thank you.
Many thanks! A very straight talking explanation of how to get started on Zoom. The actual zoom.com/test helped so much! Excellent, top man!
Thank you, I had a Zoom interview this morning & your very clear explanation was just what I needed to refresh me & get me on without a glitch, after a couple years of not zooming...cheers!
Thanks so much for giving me the confidence to get going with my one 2 one tutoring! Your presentation was so good! just enough funnies ( and they are Funny!) to lighten my anxiety, but without loosing the track! very clear and logical step by step guidance through. I have liked and subscribed this. Keep safe, stay happy!
I have spent the last two hours on the impenetrable zoom site to find out what it is and how it works. And got nowhere. Your short video makes much better sense. Thank you.
Thanks buddy omens thanks for sharing that is o for aafor athanks. Yeah of m vwjwiibee

This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!

Great video. Love the insert comments: "I don't get it." You have a wonderful personality and you make it very clear. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you so much.
Excellent! I feel really confident after watching this. I have my first Zoom meeting later today and feel I now know what I'm doing. Thanks, from the UK.
My first is coming up on Saturday, I already feel better, thanks.
