Mike Meyers knows how to teach in entertaining ways, because there are lot of technical concepts which presented via videos can sometime put you to sleep if you are only a beginner. To keep a beginner engaged needs a talented trainer which undoubtedly Mike is.I have cleared Security+ last year, i did take some training videos from other known trainers but surely Mike training really helped.
