Tip #1: Always Mute Your Microphone Unless Speaking

Make sure to mute your microphone when you’re not speaking. This eliminates any
background noise or interference in the audio.

To mute your microphone, use the mute button at the bottom left of the Zoom
toolbar that appears in the meeting screen and looks like a microphone.

Alternatively, you can set your Zoom meeting preferences to mute your microphone
at the start of every meeting automatically.

To unmute yourself, hit the mute button again or hold your spacebar for as long as
you’re speaking. This basic rule allows group meetings or conversations to run
smoothly!

For more efficient background noise elimination, use noise cancellation tools like
Krisp to elevate your audio quality to the next level.

How do I rename myself when in a Zoom meeting?

• Click the "Participants" icon in the Zoom toolbar


• In the Participants window, next to your name click "More" and choose "Rename"
• Enter a new name and click "Rename" to save it for that meeting
