I really want to acquire these skills- to thoroughly understand and use Google docs. I quickly became lost in your video. If this is for beginners, I need the dummies' version- or maybe-one for total idiots. I'm already lost at "create a document or folder, and decide where to put it..."
I am not a fan of tutorials as they either move too quickly or bore me. This guy has the perfect blend of showing and explaining so I get it and I was never bored. Bravo and thank you! I will check out your other features!
This video was extremely helpful. I was referred here by ALX as I am currently taking their Virtual Assistant Course. All concepts were highly simplified and easy to understand. I can't thank you enough. -Khadeejah.
Great video! I am a Christian pastor and very new to Google Docs. I plan to use it for writing sermons, Christian education workbooks and ebooks. I just subscribed to your channel and will be watching this video again, with notebook and pin in hand. Again, great video! Keep up the good work.
Thank you, @FCT I was referred to your video by ALX team as I am currently taking their VA Course. This is quite a resource. My knowledge has been broadened. Thank you again
Because of this video I will definitely start with Google documents, what a beautiful discovery for me. Loved your instructions. I will always look forward to see your videos.
Thank you! Really appreciate those kind words. Glad you found value in the video and hope that with the other videos you will be able to successfully continue your exploration of Google Docs.

This is my first time enjoying your RUclips channel. Great content! Looking forward to hearing more from you! Your video was so informative. Thank you so much!
This is most - BEST VIDEO - we have seen for a while on explaining everything in great detail - wooooo we do not just say this - and we hardly ever give a good - the best - review - YOU ARE THE BEST - WILLIAM AND WILMA
This was fantastic. Thank you for communicating so much useful information in such a concise way while also demonstrating the real world application. It sounds obvious that this is what should and would be done to teach, but it often is not. Thank you, I will be saving this as my reference!
I absolutely can't wait for a signature tab on both MS Word and Google Docs document. This is a feature i have been waiting for, for the longest time! Many Thanks to the Tutor😀
I just loved the way you presented this. Very sorted, to the point. No problem with the duration of the video. I simply enjoyed the learning !! Citation tool was amazing to discover.
I wished I could have a save as when I wanted to save the file as pdf on the drive. I could achieve this by download the file as pdf, and uploaded it to the drive.
Excellent video , learnt a lot of things that I was unaware of & was tired of searching via google. The video was simple, practical and easy to comprehend
Thank you! This was great. I've used Docs for a long time, but never "trained". I'm happy to learn the adding word count option, as well as Explore Tool (which is now bottom right), and citations. So helpful.
WOW!! Sethi! Top job in showing off the features and possibilities of Google Docs. Your video was very well put together with your post processing making things easier to understand. I, like you, use Docs every day, but I learned a few new things while watching, so thank you. Won't it be great when we can choose between portrait and landscape in a single document. This has been a bug-bear of mine for years now... Terrific Sethi!
Thank you for these tutorials! I have a busy day of working directly with individuals and have not had time to really get into these google functions that we are using daily in the schools. I am definitely sharing with co-workers like myself who need some help.
My favorite feature in docs is voice typing and explore button with citation. Docs are great! I would like that we can use different page setup for slides, not just have to use the one we choose for the whole deck.
i have to admit i had to restart multiple multiple multiple times going back and forth to my test demo. BUT it was very helpful as I am a Microsoft word user but this was super helpful to me as I am taking a class and this is the preferred format to submit work...thanks =) for the lesson.
7:45, It doesn't work for me, I wrote a title and a heading and when I hit on the refresh button it refreshes do the same default mode when first inserted the table. thoughts?
Due to covid 19, I now learnt to conduct online Swim Classes with notes, infographics, short videos and reflections. Tks for this interesting tutorials.
Thank you so much! I came here to figure out the version history thing and learned A LOT. I especially appreciate you explaining the paintbrush formatting tool, the document outline tool (and formatting involved with that), and the explore tool. THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
Just wondering if I use a Page less format in Page setup option ( for easier reading & writing - when document is predominantly viewed online) , But if at a later point in time , I need to get a print of that document - would it be easy to print a page less setup with ( text width = wide) as a A4 document ? or would heavy formatting be required ?
Thank you so much for this video! Please, I have a question. While learning to use docs, I tried the find and reply option and randomly tried to replace 'of' with 'going' to see how it works. However, I noticed that whatever document I'm writing on google docs, 'of' is automatically replaced with 'going'. It's frustrating, and I don't know how to reverse it. I've tried many options, but it's still not changing. Please, what do I do? I really appreciate any help you can provide.
hello, i can copy-paste RUclips video url in a google doc and then i can change its look URL in the title of the video but I wanted to ask you if I can directly copy and paste the URL but that will automatically put it in title format and not in URL format Thanks for the videos Cyril
Really enjoying getting to grips with this but can anyone please tell me why the ‘email collaborators’ function on the file drop down list is not illuminated for use?....Thanks
Flipped Classroom Tutorials I appreciate that and I can add them to the share with people and groups but that does not illuminate em collaborators on drop down. I’m not very good at all this
Im trying to print white letters and characters on clear transparent decal sheets and it will print white, the sheets just goes right through the printer, when I select black or any other colour, it works fine. Any ideas?
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, I now have to be learning how to use Google Classroom to teach my Grade Two students. Grade Two students are ages 7 and 8. I have to practise to get my teaching ideas organized so I can adequately apply myself.
Thank you for this detailed video. I am here from ALX. The only option I couldn't test run is the explore button, I realise it has been removed from Google Docs.
Hey Seth, I'm looking for a tutorial on inserting new PDF pages into an already existing PDF document. Is there a video you've done that can help? Thanks.
thank you for sharing Google docs and teaching me all these great features I will now use Google Docs for completing my Book. I have a contract with Balboa Press part of Hay Publishing

Really enjoying getting to grips with this but can anyone please tell me why the ‘email collaborators’ function on the file drop down list is not illuminated for use?....Thanks
You have to add editors and collaborators first before getting that option.
Flipped Classroom Tutorials I appreciate that and I can add them to the share with people and groups but that does not illuminate em collaborators on drop down.
I’m not very good at all this
Correction, it has now, I’m far too impatient
Thanks Bro. This was perfect👍👍👍
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing, I found it quite useful as I am new to both - Google Suite as well as Mac!
Glad it was helpful!
Very knowledgeable video, you seems to me a very powerful person, thanks 😊 sir for this video
Im trying to print white letters and characters on clear transparent decal sheets and it will print white, the sheets just goes right through the printer, when I select black or any other colour, it works fine. Any ideas?
Very helpful learnt a lot …Alx dropped me here ❤😊
Can you create a book cover in google docs?
After publishing an eBook is possible to get it printed as a pdf paper back?
Good video. Question, what happens when some of the icons like email collaborator are disabled or missing like the Explorer icon ?
Coming from ALX,can I use Google doc for CV
yeah but convert to pdf
it to multi-track record. I would play with an effect or two on my recordings, but I never touched the soft role or the step sequencer.
Excellent Tutorial on Google Docs
