This course is a quick and dirty intro to the network+ exam. Some info is missing, and if you use only this as your source of info for the exam, you will likely do poorly. Professor Mike is charismatic and great at explaining things visually. He uses good examples of software and demonstrations to get you to understand the subject matter. However, if you read any significant text on preparing for this exam (even his own), you will find that you have only learned *some* of the pertinent information. Headphone listeners beware: audio in this series is not equalized. some videos will be SIGNIFICANTLY louder than others.
Just getting started with it so so far so good. I have the book as well so using it as a reference with the videos.
W O W . Mike Meyers is different from the others, and I've used the prof's and JD's materials as well. Mike Meyers teaches in a way that makes sense in the real world especially in IT works. And he uses models like blocks, toys, and diagrams to make you understand the concept. And all the other time he's playing with real gadgets and devices (routers, switches, pcs etc) and does demonstration on it which makes me feel comfortable and ready to take on the job. Suddenly everything makes sense!
As a layman or laywoman I should say in the world of networking this course has helped me a lot in understanding how networks work. If I ever do have to take the Network+ exam, I'm positive this course will have given me a head start in understanding the study material!
I do not have any knowledge on networking before this.... Now I am at least confident enough which helped me in accomplishment of my professional tasks to a great extent
So far it has been excellent.Mike is really sharp but knows how to take a very complex subject and make it simple and easy to follow.I am normally a good disciplined student with good analytical skills but just an average memory.I have found with other books and studies that networking seemed dry and hard to grasp even with my best efforts, but Mike with his visuals has really broken down these barriers to learning a difficult but important subject.Great job!Sid
I like the fact that the speaker is in physically present in the videos. I like the visual models he uses to enhance his presentation. He speaks with a good pace and volume, and he keeps the watcher engaged and interested in the material.
Mike is a real expert, the course was great but I give it 4 start because he adds some unnecessary information and things which can be skipped to the lessons. and Why is that not good? because people who take these courses mostly looking to get straight information that can help them pass the exam, and extra information only confuses people and takes more time from them.
This course was fantastic. Taught me everything I needed to know to pass this ridiculously hard test on the first try!
Pretty big fan of Mike Meyers and his CompTIA training courses. Engaging and knowledgeable. I used his training to help me pass the A+ and I know this training will help me pass the Network+.
I watch other videos, I read information on Net+ but no one comes close to explaining it well as you do Mike. You are doing a fantastic job explaining every concept visually, which is phenomenal.
Mike is a fantastic teacher. He is entertaining, explains things well, and uses props and real equipment demos to help you understand. I am learning so much from this course!
Was afraid of buying and doing this type of training online but since I am watching it I know it's worth. Simple explanations, short videos, right to the point.
Very good course, always interesting and fun, didn't get boring which alot of other courses tend to get.
Excellent overview of networking and is really easy to follow along with. This can be a fairly boring topic, but Mike does a great job of being engaging and the videos are nice and short which is great for reviewing specific topics.
