'I attended a class you held on LCD monitor repair and would like to thank you. The way you explain things in plain english is amazing. You made things so much easier to understand than I thought was possible. I've been working on these machines for about 13 years and would have never believed that it could be that easy to learn to fix this equipment. I would also like to thank you for taking the extra time to go over power supplies while there. Since the class, I've been able to fix three LCD monitors and power supplies on two other machines that I had worked on for hours with no success before. I never realized how much I time I was wasting on things that couldn't be the problem, or understood why they couldn't be the problem until attending the class.'

'You are an excellent teacher. I learned a lot from you in the class. I will be more confident on working on my in-house monitors.' - Paul Martin
