Oh Boy! So engaging, relevant and in my immediate locus of control! So engaging, relevant, and in my immediate locus of control! 03/19/2021
This was phenomenal! As a Black woman, I absolutely loved the inclusion of pictures of Black people (even the four-finger hand) and the way that you fearlessly brought up Black Lives Matter, white privilege, and melanin. You were so funny and engaging! I immediately put books under my laptop after you mentioned it. LOL! 03/19/2021
Quite literally your session was the most informative and fun webinar I have attended in years. I actually put on a necklace during the session. I am excited again to use the tips and tricks on zoom, for class and meetings. 03/19/2021
This was amazing! I thought I was signing up to discuss this theme with my colleagues, and I wasn't sure how much I'd get out of it. I was pleasantly surprised! You packed A LOT of tips into a very short presentation and got me motivated to care a little bit more! 03/19/2021
I liked the presenter's enthusiasm. I liked the presenter's transparency about who she is. I liked the way the presenter brought the audience into the presentation by calling our names. I liked the directness of the presentation and value of the information. 03/19/2021
I thought it was fabulous. One of the best presentations of this type I've EVER seen. I am always on the lookout for managing lighting with eyeglasses, avoiding reflection. 03/18/2021
I think all the simple tricks that one may not consider, but can make a huge difference, were very helpful (i. e. position yourself in the middle of the screen, don’t show too much ceiling, avoid harsh shadows on your face). 02/16/2021
It felt like a coaching session with great tips, which in turn inspired and motivated me to be better. Almost as if it was worth the effort (where normally I wouldn’t care so much). But it’s more than a how-to, it’s also a 'You got this!' [Her] excitement and joy were awesome and refreshing. 01/28/2021
I thought you did an outstanding job presenting the material, sharing best practices, and pointing out common mistakes. You were able to keep us engaged. I feel you created an environment that made the learning relevant to our work and kept it light and fun. When you would call out people it was done in a way that felt safe and non-threatening. Your passion for this came through the screen. Thank you! 01/28/2021
Very relatable, intuitive content. I would recommend Elisabeth anyday! 01/27/2021
I felt your training was on point! 01/27/2021
This was so helpful. I was able to make concrete changes during the PD to upgrade my Zoom look. I cannot wait to try even more of them. 01/27/2021
She answered many "You don't know, what you don't know" questions. Simple things like necklaces, leg spreading, make-up, Krisp app, etc. She provided resources for each topic she spoke about. It was a very engaging and professional presentation. 01/20/2021
It was incredibly informative and covered topics I didn't even think about such as lip reading and natural lighting. 01/14/2021
Wow. Great presentation. And thank you so much for promoting content creators and using lots of examples of people of color! We need more of this. 01/13/2021
I enjoyed listening to the presenter as she had a very open and enthusiastic personality. It made learning tips and tricks for a good zoom meeting all the more fun and enjoyable. For me, the most important was correcting the lighting in my zoom image. I realized how much brighter my appearance looked and it made me feel like it made me look more engaged. Also, the option to remove the self-view was very useful, as I would tend to get distracted constantly looking at myself instead of paying attention to the speakers/presenters. 01/13/2021
With Zoom fatigue after having meetings and classes all day, it was very refreshing to have such a bubbly, cheery presenter! That is something I will definitely try to mimic when I am leading Zoom calls. 01/13/2021
I liked the ability for us to try out the techniques suggested in real time as opposed to having to remember every step to implement it later. I also learned today that I can adjust for low light on my zoom camera. Although it would be great if I could rearrange my room and set up extra equipment for every zoom call, little tweaks like this make me look presentable on on low-stakes camera calls with little additional effort. Great presentation— I honestly learned a lot! 01/12/2021
Everything was wonderful but Elisabeth's energy was the crown jewel! 01/07/2021
The presentation style was so relatable - it felt very "real"! The tips she gave just past the halfway point about mobile device technology being (generally) superior to computer-based tech hits on something that I think most people miss and thus limits them. I've used my mobile device almost exclusively for work that is VERY Zoom-based (one on one meetings) for over nine months now and it's been FANTASTIC. Far superior to anything my computer would allow me to do, from a quality standpoint, despite the desktop version having more "features." 01/06/2021
