Please note: I am no longer going to taking individual names or assembling the groups. However, I will be adding a forum to my website to allow students to coordinate their own groups.

 I apologize for the inconvenience that this causes students who do not have access to a group; however, this is my alternative business plan to discontinuing my courses altogether.

REGARDING CORE CHALLENGE EXAMS: I am willing to exam you if you just wish to challenge the CORE course. If you have a copy of your PAL COURSE REPORT, or have taken the course with me in the past 7 years, then the exam will only include the written portion for $30.00. If you do not have your course report for the PAL, then you will have to take both the written and the practical exams for $50.00. – NOTE: Your PAL card is not sufficient, only the actual COURSE REPORT can exempt you from the Practical exam.
