On the Freelancing on Upwork course: “This is by far the best course i have watched on Skillshare!! Thank you so much.”
He significantly improved my site through his expert knowledge of PHP, CSS and Javascript. Would definitely recommend John to others.
John is one of the best instructors I have come across, I learned a lot from his online tutorials.
I recommend John every chance I get. If every person I worked with were as committed to excellence, punctuality, value, and unquestionable integrity… the world would be a better place. Highest recommendation.
John is amazing at building membership sites. He converted one of my sites over from it’s existing (hardly working) platform over to the clean and simple to use WishList membership platform. I highly recommend using John and WishList for any of your membership site needs.
John is a fantastic and patient tutor, who is not just able to share knowledge and communicate it very effectively – but able to support one in applying it. However, I believe that John has a very rare ability to go further than just imparting knowledge and showing one how to apply it. He is able to innately provoke one’s curiosity when explaining and demonstrating concepts, to the extent that one can explore and unravel their own learning journey. Thanks very much John!
John did an outstanding job on my project. I highly recommend him and look forward to working with him on future projects.
