What Students are Saying:

"He was very knowledgeable and made the class so interesting. He was very open to questions and yet still covered the material that was the purpose of the class. What I really appreciated was his very detailed explanations of subtle nuances regarding terms used in the financial industry. That really impressed me and was very helpful. He ran over his time and regrettably,I was not able to stay. This class was an excellent investment of my time and resources!"
