I'm a principal of a large high school trying to figure out how to help my teachers use Teams and the embedded features to help kids in the online school setting. I send a lot of your videos to them. You presentations are easy to follow and you demos are helpful for our less-than-savvy users. You've made a big difference in the education of Memphis students during the pandemic.

I am leaving teaching because of people like you Mr Thorne. What about "banking education". Sending videos to teachers just like filling a gap or filling information or skills from their time to watch videos that you posted "for them" seems downright wrong. I learned more through managing my time and through trials than through people like you who seem to throttle on people's drives and knowing what good for them. That's why the new generations don't want to succumb to this vocational profession and do something else and thinking about teachers as less savvy means that you're downright despotic. I took from Kevin and now I'm building my own business! How about that Mr Thorne a mere less-than-savvy user became able to leave teaching and build a business. Hopefully more teachers will follow this example.

@samosa5925 3 года назад

How about giving real trainings to your teachers? The less than savvy users have not received any training for technology. Teachers have no time to train themselves and administrators think they can just send videos. I am a Canadian teacher and while I like technology Inhad tonuse my personal days to teach myself. This is ridiculous that we expect teachers should pay for things in the classroom and use their own time to educate themselves. I agree with the other person who said new generations will not all for the vocational career.

@leroylamarmcmillin8894 3 года назад

I'm happy for you, and excited at the same time. I'm almost 80 (in three weeks) and I've spent half my life regretting taking charge of it. It wasn't that I was unhappy all that time - more like unfulfilled. Money and fame was never that important to me, but happiness was, and eventually I gave it my highest priority in life. Even now I spend hours learning about things I'll never do or see or experience, but knowing the process gives me joy. You are a very talented individual and the reason I recently subscribed to your channel. I hope to learn more from you in the future. For now I'll just continue to learn as much as I can until life runs out. It's people like you who can and will make the world a better place. Best wishes...

Now my contract is being extended and I LOVE what I'm doing! Good luck Kevin, love your videos.

You are blessed with a loving wife who supports your decision to leave Corporate America in pursuit of your dreams. The opinion of others does not factor in the equation. You are successful because you are able to present complex applications in simplistic terms. This is a gift! You also have an engaging speaking style which enhances the content. I especially appreciate your clear speech pattern and perfect diction! :)

Before anything gus, Lets stop skipping his ads!!! Congratulations Kevin, this video is not a tutorial but a great inspiration and simply one of the best. I love how you didnt complain about how you were misstreated or how your boss was mean to you , like many youtubers make it sound. Sometimes the Company is great, money is great but pursuing your own carrerr, having an impact and mostly be in charge of your time is priceless. You will definitelly grow this channel to over 1M Subs and Im very excited to keep learning more and more with you.

Thank you for that! Quitting stable job is always a very difficult decision but as you said, you have to risk to try something new. I did it myself and it took me on a beautiful journey and allowed me to live in many countries. That is what I wanted and I would never have achieved it if I hadn't quit my job. I wish you all the best!

Congratulations Kevin! I had that dream 9 years ago, and I did the same; after working 20 years for a utility power company I resigned and relocated my family from the Caribbean to the West coast of the mainland (it was a long way). The only difference was that I did not have an employment offer, family, or friends helping me. The only thing I had was the desire, confidence, wisdom, and the courage to pursue my dreams. I have no regrets for what I did, and if I had the opportunity to do this again, I would. I hope you have a successful future. Always thankful for what you are doing. Cheers!!

And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

Today I put a test in a totally cool PowerPoint training for my staff. That’s because of you. I didn’t know u could do that or that PowerPoint had gotten so good.

Hi Kevin, I just stumbled on this video. I just wanted to reach out and tell you how admirable it is to see someone pursue bigger goals. I am a huge fan of your youtube channel because it has taught me so much. I am pursuing a Masters in Ed Tech and I can tell you how desperately the education field needs a platform that can encompass all aspects of the classroom. Because everyone was forced to go virtual, educators are using a quilt of different platforms to deliver their lessons. I think it would be neat to have something more complete. I wish you the best of luck.

This chimes so much with when I set up my own business 20 years ago. thje autonomy and the creativity and space you get even if your hours go up. Well said! I think creating value for others by learning is a huge motivator

I am in my 70s, an active volunteer to train seniors on ITC from Singapore. I was looking for help to sign a PDF on my iPhone. I clicked on your How to Sign PDF on iPhone and managed to sign my eSignature on my tax return for Melbourne. Straight away I subscribed to your channel. I then viewed your How to Become a Millionaire and forwarded it to my daughters and siblings, followed by “ Why I'm leaving Microsoft”. Here’s wishing you all the very best for your new endeavour, and may God bless you and your family abundantly in what you all do. Amen

I have watched lots of your VDOs, clear explanation, step-by-step, good pace to follow. Those help me a lot. And this is a brave decision I fully support :)

I really love your videos and leaving a Company to chart your own course is always admirable. Hopefully, we'll still get tons of amazing tutorials.

Hi Kevin, I have discovered your videos recently and I have been hooked ever since. I appreciate you sharing your journey at Microsoft and the courageous decision you've taken to pursue your personal goals. I have a passion for IT and coding and honestly, you are a role model to me right now.

Hey Kevin, just discovered you today and found your videos very helpful. Go for it - if you ever need to pivot you have youth in your favour - but I think you are on to a good thing. Unlimited success to you in your endeavours.
