Best lecturer in decades. Information and humor combined for lasting memory.
This conference was my third one with Steve and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Every time, I gain new knowledge and applicable strategies that I can apply to students. He is hilarious and makes learning fun!
This education was Excellent. Great, practical techniques to implement immediately. Great job with basic review. Steve is a fabulous speaker who keeps your attention. This is one of the better trainings I have been to in a long time. Overall my rating would be EXCELLENT.
I absolutely LOVED him!! He was one of the best speakers I have ever seen, if not the best. The combination of excellent information and humor was perfect! I would come see him every time he came to town! Sorry to end every sentence with an exclamation point.
He was very entertaining, I enjoyed his presentation-he had some good information and explained it in a light-hearted way. I would recommend his training to anyone.
