I rarely listen to instructional YouTube videos anymore. Primarily because they are long winded and go the long way around the bush. If you need to go to the end of the block to the corner store you don’t need a lot of senseless directions such as, “you could go to the left then … or, you could go to the right then … Years ago I viewed a instructional video on something and then I found a shorter way to do what I wanted. After that I stopped using YouTube to learn things.

To build on what David noted, if you like podcasts, I like using the FS training podcast where a number of the trainer webinars are housed. This allows me to easily listen to a specific training on my iPhone while practicing or taking notes on my laptop. I’ve also found a number of helpful short videos on YouTube, but I find the interface more frustrating. It’s good if you are trying to figure out something specific, but the longer webinars are better overviews.

Hi Justin, My books are meant to be references you can read through, and the first chapter of my primer book talks about JAWS and other screen reader basics. With regard to tutorials, JAWS has excellent audio tutorials in its Help menus, under the Training item. These tutorials are among the first resources you should try to use. Regards, David
