Hello Everyone,

I feel proud to be part of such an active and responsive community.

I'm Supreet Agrawal and I'm a Chartered Accountant from India.

I have worked for 3 years in the Assurance Division of one of the Big 4s (Ernst & Young).

During the work, I used to spend 15-18 hours of my day with Microsoft Excel and therefore I developed a special frustation, followed by special interest towards the Microsoft Excel.

And now I have launched a course named Let's Excel With Microsoft Excel, which aims to simplify the Microsoft Excel for enrollers in just 2.5 hours.

This Instructor Community has helped me in every part of the course creation and I would love to be an active member of this community.

A fun fact about me and this whole situation is that, I left my Shining Corporate Job, only to create a course on such a topic that used to trouble me the most (Microsoft Excel) for 15 to 18 hours everyday and I made it a source of income😂

Thank you!

Looking forward to connecting!

Please feel free to reach out to me on my linked profile by searching my name.

Hi @agrawalsupreet, welcome aboard!

I love that you went from having trouble with Excel to making it your source of income - the ironies of life, isn't it? 😂 

We're excited for you to be an active member of this community too. Thank you for sharing more about yourself!

[Mimi]

Hi,

My Name is Maryam AlBalushi. I am from Sultanate of Oman. I am here to find a way of conveying the massive amount of knowledge that I have been sharpening over the past 5 years for the sake of making money out of it. I am not sure of what should be my final teaching area but as far as I remember, I have started creating online tutorials for 3d modeling using 3ds max on Youtube. Fun fact about my self is giving my physical and mental health the highest priority over anything else that I may feel attached to. 

Have a nice day,

[Bella]

Why did you join the Instructor Community? I knew I could pass the exam but I didn't like the way the exam was done and I failed the exam couple of times. When they changed the exam to online exam, I did it very well. I believe my teaching skills also works in the similar fashion.

Tell us a fun fact about yourself! I'm a boring person who likes to play cards and pool. I don't get along much and I'm a little bit quite type. I prefer to do things alone as most of the works I do with the team, the credit it eaten by the other members. But not time with Udemy..

[DavidCarr875]

Hello everyone,

My name is David. I am British but I actually live in the Balkans. I am a retired lawyer and also a qualified English teacher.

I have been a Udemy customer as a student for a few years but now I would like to launch my own courses teaching English to non-native speakers. I specialise in business and legal English, financial and commercial English.

I am able to make my own videos but I have never made any for Udemy before so I am not sure how to start. Is there a standard form or an approval process? Any advice and guidance would be most welcomed.
