This is a guy who had a good idea in 2000, monetized it, sat back and did nothing for 20 years as the teaching world passed him by. He is like a man running Windows 95 in a Windows 10 world.

His 'package' costs 400UKP (in 2021). And it consists of a bunch of badly animated MS Paint pictures. Some are even in FLASH! I borrowed a copy of his stuff from a friend who was suckered into buying it. Even though it was free, I wouldn't use it, it was outdated trash.

His 'about me' page describes him as "... the world's leading authority on teaching...".
Yeah, right. His profile makes him out to be the Elon Musk of Education. He's a joke!

He also brags about being a speaker at a TED conference. However it was a TEDx conference - which is when someone purchases a TED license, NOT an official TED conference at all!

The guy is a shyster who sells overpriced, dated concepts.
I totally agree with the reviewer who said that the British Government should revoke his passport and close him down. He gives all English teachers a bad name.

He also DCMA's the eff out of websites that dare to criticize him, and will try his damnedest to get negative Youtube comments removed as well.

Tip for consumers:
Don't
