When I was taking the course with James, I was frustrated with the stories and not really having the time to sit and take the class, I kept wishing I could just have the facts and move on. Then I took the exam. Remembering his stories of his experiences gave me the knowledge to answer the exam questions. It was amazing, and I learned a valuable lesson on how to teach in a way that sticks with people. It was an added bonus. James knows what he is talking about and not from a technically educated way, but from a hands on, made that mistake, made sure I knew how to avoid that mistake, and researched how to make the processes better sort of way. I now know what I didn't know to determine how upholstery fabric cleaning processes can be implemented into our content restoration business and the level of skill an upholstery fabric cleaning technician would need to be successful. Great job.

We drove down 6 hours from Durham NC to take the class, and it was very well worth it! His ability to communicate effectively and break everything down to where we all could get a clear understanding was exceptional! We left his class feeling much more informed and knowledgeable than before we came. He was also very patient with one of my employees who'd never attended class before. We appreciate Tom very much and will drive another 6 hours if we have to, just to take his class! Thanks Tom!

I think it is very unusual to have an instructor who is still so heavily involved in actually performing the services he is teaching. James has a rare passion for cleaning and really shares that through his course. He made a subject that could be presented in a very dry manner, more exciting. I highly recommend this course and this instructor.
