By Vitallie Jackson on 8/11/2026

I found some of the information difficult to follow or difficult to pay attention to because it did not feel relevant or necessary to me. I think what was lacking was the relatable examples or deeper explanation on how this particular feature can be used personally. These feelings occurred mainly in the Word application segment. For example, the customization of the toolbar was confusing because it lacked practical usage. Why customize a toolbar? Labeled Brian with paint formatting felt needless. Perhaps if there was an example given that was more focused, it would have made more sense to me. Like, "when using Microsoft Word, you may find the searching in between tabs unnecessarily tedious, so we'll label this tab 'Quick Access' and form a group containing the most frequently sought adjustment buttons like font style, color, insert cover page, add page numbers, etc." I think I needed to see a genuine use for some modifications to understand their use.

he instructor has very good knowledge, and the lessons were clear and easy to apply. I am also very happy that he didn’t use images of women or music like some instructors do, because for me that only adds distraction and doesn’t help with learning. I also like the time he set for each lesson, usually not more than five minutes. This is helpful when I want to pause and return later. There is one point I hope he can improve in this training course: I suggest adding a separate section that covers common problems users may face and how to solve them — such as error messages that appear while setting up tasks, managing contacts, sharing the calendar, or other similar issues. It would also be great if he could add another section, or even a separate course, about: Quick tips and tricks to get work done faster Shortcuts Alerts

The course is average. The reason why I wrote this is that, it has the fundamentals. The course is for someone who has little time and do not have any knowledge about office programs and outlook. It's not bad, but if you know fundamentals about office programs or if you know fundamnetals about outlook. You do not need this course. For the author, thank you for your time and efforts.

Corso molto semplice da seguire, ma allo stesso tempo utilissimo.
Sappiamo tutti inviare una mail, ma durante questo corso mi sono resa conto come Outlook possa essere trasformato in un vero e proprio alleato per organizzare il proprio lavoro risparmiando tempo prezioso.
L'organizzazione degli argomenti e' molto efficace, se avessi bisogno di ricordare una singola funzione o tricks, sarebbe facile da trovare.
Consigliatissimo a studenti, liberi professionisti, imprenditori.

Excellent course introduction

By Gracie Harris on 10/20/2020

Thank you so much on the info for desktop alerts, it is pretty annoying. Also like the auto delete.

By Sean Liptak on 10/16/2020

This was very helpful

By Rosalie Miller on 10/16/2020

Overall, it was good and I learned things that will be very useful.
The organization of the course was sometimes a little odd. I had some Outlook experience prior to this, but not much. If I had not had any at all, I might have been confused in the beginning, as it didn't start with the very basics. Things like archiving and safe mode were introduced before some of the more everyday actions. And views were used before views were explained, for instance.
A question I asked was answered within a few days, and Brian suggested a screenshot might help him see what was going on. I replied and uploaded a screenshot, but when there was no further reply for a week, I deleted it, as I didn't really want it to remain on the website. I solved my issue, so it's not a problem, but at the time, I wished for a quicker response.
Sound quality varies from section to section, but it was always easy to understand.
I love the division into very short lessons, so I could learn as I had time, and I am very glad to have continued access to it. It is a worthwhile course. Thanks, Brian!
