In this Zoom tutorial for beginners, we look at how to use Zoom and get started with the Zoom video conference calling system. You can use Zoom for conference calls or Zoom for online teaching, remote learning, host a Zoom webinar, or even catching up with friends.

This Zoom tutorial is aimed at people brand new to Zoom and who are using this app for the first time or have been asked to set up a Zoom call but have no idea where to start! It's also ideal if you've used Zoom in the past but want a few tips on how to get the most from this conferencing calling software.

In this Zoom video conferencing tutorial, we use the free (Basic) version but also mention some of the features available to paid Zoom users. In this video, we focus on using Zoom on a PC or Mac rather than on how to use the Zoom apps.

    A very clear presentation. The speaker spoke slowly and distinctly which contributed to the clarity.

    Finally, a tutorial that was clear, comprehensive, simple, and enjoyable. If all tutorials were this good, knowledge, in general, would climb to a whole new level! Thanks so very much.

    Nothing will ever top the human interaction in person. Great tutorial thanks for sharing.
  • Had figured out most Zoom's features by trial and error- but this is a fabulous review. Deb is a gifted teacher. Delightful to hear English properly spoken from this side of the pond. Cheers! Stay well.

  • This is just great. I followed every second of the tutorial. Debby is a born teacher. Thank you so much.
  • This is the first Zoom tutorial that I've tried that actually teaches at a reasonable pace, and also teaches in a very organized manner, so that I really learned how to run Zoom, and know that I cam come back here for refreshers. Thanks for a great video.
  • FANTASTIC tutorial...but what else can one expect from the Simon Sez IT group. Thanks so much for making my life so much easier.
  • Thank you soooo much.... you have a very slow paced teaching progression which helps the learner walk with you and never lose track.... Your video helped me a lot....
