He is a very charismatic presenter who does a great job of connecting the audience with his content. His presentations skills are outstanding and he gets the point across in a fun and engaging manor. I highly recommend seeing him present!"

Matt brought a wealth of technological resources and classroom activities to share with our teachers. A comment from one of our teachers sums it up best.
