TRAINER OF THE MONTH
Our students have been asking us to put Gabe into the Trainer of the month position. Reading his evaluations over the last 12 months he honestly deserves it.
“Gabe was charming, and obviously talented. In fact, I would say, a genius of sorts. He seemed modest about his skills, and I would highly recommend him for featured "Instructor Spotlight" award on your web site. He is extremely knowledgeable in his field, and patient with those that had questions regarding the material covered.” Sue Doebler - SLD Web Designs.com
“This was awesome. Gabriel was patient, clear on what he taught, and best of all he was responsive to each student’s questions and problems. He explained things in an organized, concise fashion that made pretty much everything easy to understand. The course was pretty much what I expected and more. It gave me a whole new outlook on how to approach building websites after 10 years of doing it my self-taught way. WOW! What an eye opener. Thanks for an informative and valuable 3 days!” Mark Loewenstein - Loewy Consulting
