    Lest you wonder who here in the eduFire community is "DA MAN" when it comes to welcoming, teaching, and helping the newbies, well wonder no more. Marco is ... DA MAN. Da Man is good. Da Man is very good! -Ben (from Marco's ... wait, I mean, Da Man's Teacher Orientation course) Posted by Ben on Sunday Jun 28

  • Jackie  Taylor
    Marco is an excellent teacher; he was very detailed, helpful and easy to understand. Despite the many technical difficulties we had with the teacher orientation class, Marco was very professional and handled each situation with ease. I would highly recommend him. Posted by Jackie on Friday Jun 19
  • Ron Smith
    I am going to leave a feedback that may seem cruel, but really isn't. Due to technical issues the class started 20 minutes late. My first reaction was to feel sorry for Marco - he's the ultimate professional online tutor and the fact that students were inconvenienced must trouble him greatly. But then my selfish, self-centered side took over and I thought, “I AM SO GLAD IT HAPPENED!!!” Why? Well, usually a tutor will TELL us what to do when disaster happens. In this situation, we all got to see a perfect blueprint in how to handle major technical difficulties through Marco’s actions - give an explanation to your students; apologize for the inconvenience, and then get down to the business of teaching. Those patient enough to wait do so because they value your knowledge and realize the opportunity to learn from you is worth the minor inconvenience. Don’t let them down by delivering anything less than an excellent session! And that is exactly what Marco did! Posted by Ron on Friday Jun 19

    This class is absolutely necessary for new tutors. If you want to learn how to navigate the Meeting Room you NEED this class. Marco is great, personable, patient and knows everything you need to know about eduFire. Posted by Mel on Monday Jun 22
  • Cross Peter
    Without it, I would be still blind, deaf and handcuffed before the bull of teaching proficiency! Marco delivers information without leaving humour aside. He goes to the point while being always alert and on top of things. He has mastered this topic. In two words, a must. Posted by Cross on Tuesday Jun 23

    I thought Marco's class was really helpful and very informative.He really knows what he is talking about and is there to help.For someone with no teaching experience and very little knowledge of computer software he is great teacher,I will be doing another class with him to get a good grasp on using the software.

    The class is a good introduction to the system--this was my first look at the online classroom format, so I would have been really lost on my own! I liked having the chance ask Marco questions directly. Posted by Ayah on Saturday May 16
  • Quinsy B
    Hey Marcoさん Hi everyone! Thank you for this class Marcoさん! I really like this class because you give a very good presentation, it is fast and clean, and the class allowed me to pick up a lot of practicle info. Though it's a casual and comfortable environment in which asking questions and getting straight up, direct answers during class works! I like that attendees will help eachother often too~ : ) Take care~ and please continue to give great classes Marcoさん. Posted by Quinsy on Thursday May 14

    Sorry about the delay (and the duplicate text), but I got confused about the wall/Feedback section. This class helped me familiarize myself with the site and its possibilities.

  • Norbert Vasen
    This is a feedback for Valerie N., she took over the class because of an ill colleague. Valerie helped me with my first passes towards being a tutor and it was very useful. It not only gave me many clues of "todo's" but also the enthousiasm to consider Edufire as a right place to teach. So I will no actively build up my infrastructure. Norbert, teacher of sustainable energy Posted by Norbert on Saturday Apr 25
