Windows Expert Consumer MVP Michel Martin has released a Windows 8 app entitled “Video Training Windows 8,” a set of video tutorials on Windows 8.
He was inspired to create this app in response to frequently asked questions from his students in the classroom.
“My app "Video Training Windows 8" is a global answer to my students. When teaching Windows 8, the same questions are asked again and again. That gave me inspiration to create a new app, answering all those questions in short videos, easy to understand and easy to reproduce. That's how I started creating apps for Windows 8. At the moment, 16 of my apps are available in the Store and I have 8 new apps almost ready to release.”
In regards to his MVP experience, he stated, “I've been a happy Windows Consumer Expert MVP for 9 years. Every year, it's great to meet my peers at Seattle and network with them on Windows. Hope to be a MVP for ten more years!”
