In this video I plainly explain the basics of LaTeX with a focus on how a student might begin to use it, such that by the end of the video you will feel ready enough to begin creating your own beautiful documents with LaTeX. I made this video because I wish I had one like it when I began my LaTeX journey, and hope to share what I have learned with others in a simple, easy to follow way.
