In this video, @JFRScience 's Mr. Key works through some examples of electron configurations that violate the Aufbau Principle, and addresses the how to use electron configurations to illustrate excited electron configurations.
Note: This tutorial does NOT specifically cover how to write electron configurations, rather how to use them to address the two concepts mentioned above. If you are looking for how to work through electron configurations, this video may help: youtube.com/watch?v=5omUQRmTCiU
