As an IT instructor, which try to update my knowledge frequently, this is one of the best videos in this topic I seen so far! Very professional and high quality! Thank you!
As a Talent Development Consultant I deliver virtual training everyday and your video had increased my knowledge and be more creative with Teams Share/presentation! Thank you
Thank you for enumerating what the presenter can do to improve the screen sharing experience. Meeting attendees can _also_ impact what they can see. They can zoom in to whatever you are sharing by pressing the Control key and scrolling on their wheel mouse (+). Once zoomed in, they can left-mouse-click and drag the screen around.
Tuesday Mornings w/Leila ... w/a mug of hot black coffee. " ... If you learned something new from this video, please ..." Of course I did ... it's a Leila video ... how can you not learn something new? I'm a novice ... so I've already watched many many Teams training videos and tutorials. Once again Leilia's videos are the best (no surprise to anyone who has followed her other Excel videos). I am better with Teams than a week ago ... still have quite a ways to go ... but the content and delivery are so helpful ... thank you ... thank you ... thank you ...

Hi can the teams give some information about who turn off the camera like icon mic on teams?, because we need information audience who turn on the camera
Hi Leila Thanks for the video. Its the best video I have seen on internet to explain something. Explaining everything and still being to the point. Hope to see more of this great content :)
I am amazed Leila! You never fail to deliver on the contents of any subject! The detailing in this video is superb and it was like watching it "live" both as a participant and presenter experiencing how it "feels"! Your efforts literally "show" through! Thanks once again, you are great! 😊👍
I do remote training through Teams and had to figure all these tips out through trial and error over the past year. I know about a dozen people I'm going to forward this video to right away and save them the same hassle!
thank you for that - working from home I decided early on that I needed 2 monitors but some of my coworkers did not. I actually hear the 'i can't see that' or 'its not clear to me' a lot. at least i now know how to accommodate others. i will be sharing this video with my coworkers. you never fail me & i always learn something new & USEFUL. thank you again
Thank you Leila! You saved me from having to test it myself. I have a scenario where the presenter needs to present both to a live audience and a remote audience, using Teams. From your video I could determine that the PowerPoint slideshow shared as a window will work best in this case. Since the presenter (including the data projector audience) and the remote audience will have the same view.
An additional and useful feature is on the user viewing shared screen. From the … menu (three dots menu at the top of teams window) and select ‘Focus on content’ which will gain some window real estate by hiding the attendees icons which are rather large.
This is so informative. We go thru so many presentations and there is time wasted when people do not know what they are doing. Such great info, concise and to the point. Very easy to understand...thank you for doing these!! I love them!
Great content, thank you, especially resizing windows and variables with displaying Excel. One approach I use is to drag the Teams meeting and anything I want to present to the laptop display - that way it'll usually be well-sized for audience displays plus I'm still looking at the camera.
This video is so useful. Didn’t expect some dialog boxes are not showing to the viewers in Excel when sharing a window. When presenting I try to join the meeting on two computers. One to present and the other to monitor what viewers can see.
The recipient of a shared screen can make the shared image larger by choosing the "Focus" function (under the 3 dots menu). For me, it's one of the greater downside of Teams (compared to e.g. Skype) that it wastes so much of the screen away from the shared content - that broad black frame.
The video is just the right length with necessary content created professionally and presented clearly. Thank you Leila. Quick question: when presenting PowerPoint from the local computer by sharing the slide window, do the audience get to see the camera feed from the presenter? You mention it in the video, but, it is not clear whether that option is available only to PowerPoint files uploaded to Teams. Thank you!
Thank you Leila for taking out the time to explore the main issues that we face in teams on a daily basis. I never thought there was a solution to the problem of viewing things small except to have a big screen at both ends or zoom in. Also great tips on presentation as well. Surely will come in handy!
Thanx Leila, learned a lot BUT missed you clarified about the presenters mode even when you got only one screen on your side connected (like in a laptop or so). So it is even possible to stream the presentation to your audience while operating the presenters screen on your side. If I remember right it's 1. Share you powerpoint 2. Start the presentation 3. Right click on your presentation 4. Choose presenters mode or the more professional version 1. Start you presentation 2. Switch back to Teams and share the presentation screen (not PowerPoint) 3. Switch to you presenters screen 4. and go
A thousand thank you-s will be too small for how much I learnt in this video. Thank you very very much. I just upped my presentation style as a trainer with this.
Leila, are you aware of any way we can get rid of the black bars on either side of the presented material? If we could utilize the full horizontal landscape it would help with readability for the viewers! You are already my hero, but if you figure out how to lose the bars you’ll be a SUPER hero!
An alternative I would recommend rather than changing scaling is to just use with zoom within each application. In office applications, it is often at the bottom right.
I had no idea not every visual was shared when I shared a window. Wow. It seems like it would be a good idea to sign in as an audience member when presenting to see what the audience sees. Thanks.
Great information. I did expanded my arsenal of options for ensuring good presentations. Unfortunately, the biggest thing I learned is that MS has alot more work to do on Teams. I should never have to change my screen resolution to impact my audience view. Most people "share desktop" because the experience when sharing sharing multiple applications as windows stinks. They need to allow switching between files without stopping presentation. Screen annotations should work THROUGHOUT the experience, including the PowerPoint view with those nifty audience control features.
I always use the sliding magnifier bottom right in Excel. I have a huge screen and most of my audience have much smaller screens. I liked your tip on sharing just the application window but reducing the window size
Many comments state that screen and window sharing do not really work properly. I am running on Mac. Never saw the red block and not possible to know which screen or window is being shared and if it is being shared. Please please address these issues. You are a great teacher and I have taken many of your courses - even paid courses. Thanks.
If you share a presentation using only powerpoint window while sharing, then the audience cannot see you are in presenter view. They just see the presentation itself. I think this also worths sharing.
One additional Tip, instead of the presenter changing his screen. It is also possible for the Receiver to Enlarge (Ctrl-Scrollwheel), and Pan&Tilt (Arrow keys) to better view the document from the presenter. By the way great Teams summary.
Finally an excellent fact filled straight to the point guide on sharing. Been Googling this for a while, and Microsoft is no help at all. Explained some of the exact issues I’ve been having. Thank you.
This was very useful! Ty! A question: when sharing PP with media, can the students start themselves the video as it's not automatically played for them?
I just set everything up as scenes in OBS studio and use the virtual webcam feature in any meeting software - Teams, Zoom, collaborate, etc. That way you get complete control of what you show people, from your desktop to an app. I've setup a green screen as well so that every scene has a live video of my head in the corner as I present. I've found this approach makes me completely independent of specific software's (and OS's) idiosyncrasies, and I only need to focus on how I compose my scenes in OBS. I even have different scene collections and profiles in OBS for different situations./meeting types.
THANK YOU!!! I was messing up my presentation during my last meeting. I needed to talk and present but I kept shrinking my screen to get to my audio bar. I just need to move it at the top of my screen. 😁
Perfect. I have shared this video with everyone in our branch. With COVID we're using Teams intensively and every meeting we have we are fumbling around because we don't know how to use Teams. The knowledge shared in this video covers every key skill we need to learn about using Teams correctly. Thank you.
This is yet another, very practical and helpful presentation. I am quite impressed by your knowledge and presentation skills. Thank you for sharing your talent online!
Hi Leila, I was quite confused about the different platforms of sharing screens. You have explained very clearly the differences. Now I could share screen confidently. Thank you for your great effort:)
Incredibly well presented as usual. Very heavy. One would think that Microsoft would have one way is best solution. Why is that if you reduce the size of the screen on your side, your audience can see more
Mersi Leila joon. This was sooo helpful! We just switched to Microsoft 360 and need to learn everything including Teams which we use daily. I'll now go to watch the completer guide to teams :)
Great tips, i was not using the magnifier option yet, will try it :) i have another tip for you as well, when presenting excel or word file you can unpin the ribbon and close the formula bar so the visible content you share can increase to the benefit of your audience.
Thank you so much for all your effort Do you know how to freeze the screen while presenting so you can edit the document you are discussing and then unfreeze it to show the revised version ???
Hi Leila, your videos are very helpful and I have learned much. Can you show me how I can share screen on my Macbook Pro for Teams using presenter Mode for PPT. I want audiences to see only my slides and not my notes. Thanks a million.
Hi Leila, thanks for your videos. Very easy to follow and full of great nuggets. Could you consider doing one on giving screen control to a participant when sharing screen in Teams? - it's a "somewhat" simple feature however it's only, easily, possible with attendees in your own organization. Giving screen control to external participants seems to be quite tricky to do; in fact, I'm still not clear how this is done reliably. I've had to resort to other apps to achieve this (ie: Zoom).
Thanks Leila for the tips. The downside of teams is when we are sharing a window, can't add another window to share without stopping the sharing. Or you have to share the entire desktop if you want to share more than 1 application. In WebEx, you have this feature but not in Teams. Any tips for this?
It's very helpful if you have two or more screens when using this. I keep my "working screen" under the camera so I'm facing my audience as I present, and drag the grid with their faces to the other monitor so I can see their reactions with a quick glance.
As an IT instructor, which try to update my knowledge frequently, this is one of the best videos in this topic I seen so far! Very professional and high quality! Thank you!

They can zoom in to whatever you are sharing by pressing the Control key and scrolling on their wheel mouse (+). Once zoomed in, they can left-mouse-click and drag the screen around.
Additionally, in Teams they can click 'Focus' to enhance the shared screen or click the 'Full screen' option. 🙂

Hi Leila
Thanks for the video. Its the best video I have seen on internet to explain something. Explaining everything and still being to the point. Hope to see more of this great content :)
when it comes to any productivity tool, you always cover the hidden features and it saves a lot of time and makes our work more efficient.
I'm glad to hear that :)
I am amazed Leila! You never fail to deliver on the contents of any subject! The detailing in this video is superb and it was like watching it "live" both as a participant and presenter experiencing how it "feels"! Your efforts literally "show" through! Thanks once again, you are great! 😊👍
I discussed a lot with my team how to best show both sides in the video. I'm relieved to hear the experience came across :)
I do remote training through Teams and had to figure all these tips out through trial and error over the past year. I know about a dozen people I'm going to forward this video to right away and save them the same hassle!
Am I tempted to send this to my online teacher? Yes.
Thought exactly the same thing! 🤭
Do it!
Thinking the same 😀
😀
You should. Its frustrating not be able to see what they are presenting. You miss out on so much.
thank you for that - working from home I decided early on that I needed 2 monitors but some of my coworkers did not. I actually hear the 'i can't see that' or 'its not clear to me' a lot. at least i now know how to accommodate others. i will be sharing this video with my coworkers. you never fail me & i always learn something new & USEFUL. thank you again
I'm very happy to hear that Donna! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Leila, really useful! I’ve been on so many meetings where the first words are “can you zoom in a bit please, I can’t read that...”
You are not just good in Excel. You are the best in everything. Excellent and very useful tutorial. 👍🙂👏🔥
Excellent tutorial!
Q
Training and the lady presenting it is awesome and presented herself professionally.
I'm facing my first presentation on Teems and this video really helped me. Thank you!
There is never a time, after watching your vids, something isn't learned!! U R amazing!!!
Wow, thank you!
Thank you Leila! You saved me from having to test it myself. I have a scenario where the presenter needs to present both to a live audience and a remote audience, using Teams.

An additional and useful feature is on the user viewing shared screen. From the … menu (three dots menu at the top of teams window) and select ‘Focus on content’ which will gain some window real estate by hiding the attendees icons which are rather large.
Every tutorial should be done with voice-over like this.
This is so informative. We go thru so many presentations and there is time wasted when people do not know what they are doing. Such great info, concise and to the point. Very easy to understand...thank you for doing these!! I love them!
Great content, thank you, especially resizing windows and variables with displaying Excel. One approach I use is to drag the Teams meeting and anything I want to present to the laptop display - that way it'll usually be well-sized for audience displays plus I'm still looking at the camera.

That's great practice!
I agree with your point on sharing documents. Be mindful that the size one sees on his/her screen is not what others see on theirs. Great tips!
The recipient of a shared screen can make the shared image larger by choosing the "Focus" function (under the 3 dots menu). For me, it's one of the greater downside of Teams (compared to e.g. Skype) that it wastes so much of the screen away from the shared content - that broad black frame.

I need to show this to every single teacher I know!!
Thanx Leila, learned a lot BUT missed you clarified about the presenters mode even when you got only one screen on your side connected (like in a laptop or so). So it is even possible to stream the presentation to your audience while operating the presenters screen on your side.
If I remember right it's
1. Share you powerpoint
2. Start the presentation
3. Right click on your presentation
4. Choose presenters mode
or the more professional version
1. Start you presentation
2. Switch back to Teams and share the presentation screen (not PowerPoint)
3. Switch to you presenters screen
4. and go
A thousand thank you-s will be too small for how much I learnt in this video. Thank you very very much. I just upped my presentation style as a trainer with this.
With Home Office day to day, this video is a must. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it, Bruno!
Leila, are you aware of any way we can get rid of the black bars on either side of the presented material? If we could utilize the full horizontal landscape it would help with readability for the viewers! You are already my hero, but if you figure out how to lose the bars you’ll be a SUPER hero!
This video answered a lot of my questions and so clearly explained things. The summary at the end was ossum!!
New style of summary at the end of video is great initiative
An alternative I would recommend rather than changing scaling is to just use with zoom within each application. In office applications, it is often at the bottom right.
Yeah thats what my teacher does if someone tells her they cant see, she just zooms it in, asks if its better and continues
Thank you for sharing this. Teams is becoming such a multipurpose tool :)
Absolutely! Thank you for dropping by.
I had no idea not every visual was shared when I shared a window. Wow. It seems like it would be a good idea to sign in as an audience member when presenting to see what the audience sees. Thanks.
Very useful, I've been using Teams for 2 years and didn't know 50% of this. Thank you!
Great to hear!
One of your best videos. Explained screen sharing very well.
Much appreciated!
Love your presentation style, straight forward and easy to understand, many thanks
Thank you for making my online classes better than earlier. ❤️❤️
Tellement vrai. Une bonne communication passe par une bonne lecture des supports. Il fallait le rappeler. Merci Leila
So glad I found you!! Your tips are so practical!! Very helpful! 🙌🏾
As the recipient of something being shared you can hold ctrl and use your scroll wheel to zoom in/out. Sometimes ctrl + or ctrl - works as well.
Thanks for the tip, Jonathan!
Very clear explanation Leila. Thank you.
Whew! You make a complex topic straight forward. Thank you.
Great information. I did expanded my arsenal of options for ensuring good presentations. Unfortunately, the biggest thing I learned is that MS has alot more work to do on Teams.

Happy to help!
Finally an excellent fact filled straight to the point guide on sharing. Been Googling this for a while, and Microsoft is no help at all. Explained some of the exact issues I’ve been having. Thank you.
A much needed video for me.
Always wanted to learn all the ways of sharing on teams. Thank u so much for the video.
My pleasure!
Thank you so much Leila. It's beneficial & informative. I'll use these tricks when sharing the screen to my teammates & seniors in proper way. 👍
Leila perfect video topic and presentation method. This has been an unspoken mystery since our transition to Teams! THANK YOU !
Glad it was helpful!
This was very useful! Ty! A question: when sharing PP with media, can the students start themselves the video as it's not automatically played for them?

I didn't know how to share video with a sound, so thank you. This video is especially helpful for teachers.
This was an extremely detailed, fantastic presentation on how to present ppt, doc, and xcel files! Thank you!
Once again, a very useful video with assertive speech, thank you very much
Leila, I've watched many of your videos. Each video is amazing! I can't thank enough for helping me move up in my career.
Thank you for the kind feedback, Angela!
THANK YOU!!! I was messing up my presentation during my last meeting. I needed to talk and present but I kept shrinking my screen to get to my audio bar. I just need to move it at the top of my screen. 😁

The knowledge shared in this video covers every key skill we need to learn about using Teams correctly. Thank you.
just to add, audio sharing doesn’t work when you’re using the web based Teams. It only works in Teams app.
Great content, by the way!
Thanks Leila!🤙Helpful navigation! Hoping to use teams soonish!🦁
This is yet another, very practical and helpful presentation. I am quite impressed by your knowledge and presentation skills. Thank you for sharing your talent online!
Thank you very much, Robert!

Mersi Leila joon. This was sooo helpful! We just switched to Microsoft 360 and need to learn everything including Teams which we use daily. I'll now go to watch the completer guide to teams :)
This was pure GOLD! Nice tips.The dancing presenter in the end was LOL funny ;D
Thanks! 😃
Yes, at 15:37, come on, everybody hands in the air :)
Thank you, Leila. This information was beneficial as usual. It's always a pleasure to learn when you're teaching.
Great tips, i was not using the magnifier option yet, will try it :) i have another tip for you as well, when presenting excel or word file you can unpin the ribbon and close the formula bar so the visible content you share can increase to the benefit of your audience.
Great tip! Thanks for sharing, Biljana!
Thank you Leila! Loved the tutorial!!
Bloody genius. Why are you so helpful, I love it
Thank you so much for all your effort
Do you know how to freeze the screen while presenting so you can edit the document you are discussing and then unfreeze it to show the revised version ???
Its really informative one . Never knowed how my window could be visible to others .Will definitely make these changes from now on !! Thanks Leila
My pleasure 😊
Hi Leila, your videos are very helpful and I have learned much. Can you show me how I can share screen on my Macbook Pro for Teams using presenter Mode for PPT. I want audiences to see only my slides and not my notes. Thanks a million.
Your tutorials are truly of great helpful at work and one can develop a proper work culture practice by following them... Keep posting
what great culture? like micromanage your employees because you don't trust them.
Thx for this video. Using teams in presentation mode each day and appreciate your hints
Glad to help, Michael.
Fantastic presentation. Thanks, Leila!
Hi Leila, thanks for your videos. Very easy to follow and full of great nuggets.

Thanks Leila. Awesome idea to show what is seen by both presenter and audience. Thanks for sharing these tips and insights :)) Thumbs up!!
Thanks, Wayne!
Superb presentation! Thank YOU!!!
Thank you for the tips.
It would be useful to have a mention of the focus option that the person seeing the presentation has.
Thank you so much for this, I've a group presentation tomorrow and now I know what to do.
Thanks for this video. You just helped me solving the mystery of missing dialog boxes when sharing my screen. Big thank you Leila.
Glad I could help!
Thanks Leila for the tips. The downside of teams is when we are sharing a window, can't add another window to share without stopping the sharing. Or you have to share the entire desktop if you want to share more than 1 application. In WebEx, you have this feature but not in Teams. Any tips for this?
Very well explained - thanks for sharing 👍
Whew! You make a complex topic straight forward. Thank you. 👏👏👏
Well presented, thank you! I wish there were some way to see my trainees when I share the screen. It’s so weird to present in a void.
You can. Double click the title bar of the single person you see.
It's very helpful if you have two or more screens when using this. I keep my "working screen" under the camera so I'm facing my audience as I present, and drag the grid with their faces to the other monitor so I can see their reactions with a quick glance.
Fantastic stuff. Great detail, especially the different functionality in the different sharing modes. Huge thanks!
My pleasure, John!
Thanks a lot, presentation is so smooth to watch
Thank you for making this video. This is very useful 👍👍👍
I truly learned a lot from you. Thank you!!!
Thanks Leila very useful for the users-
Everything is so simply explained... thank you.
Thank you for your video. Great content, this video is very helpful for me as am going to do presentation using teams soon.
Your videos are so informative and easy to understand. Thank you very much for all these amazing videos, I'm learning so much from you.
Glad you like them, Kim!
