What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Review their credentials as we have no governing authority to over see who becomes a trainer and what qualifications they must have. Some of us have degrees in the field and some simply read a book and took a test.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Think about your "Why". its important to have specific goals but what will carry to those goals over tough challenging days is your "why".
