About the lesson

30+ years of personal experience combined with a reputation for clear thought and insight when teaching. My colleagues jokingly referred to me as a "Geek translator" ie translating geek finance into plain English.

Lessons are generally directed to adults wanting to learn investment concepts, improve their personal finance skills or to more advanced students wanting to learn about and how to implement a stock option strategy.

Excellent! I think that Brian has explained the concept well in the the finance topic. The think that Brian can improve is to write out more notes and summary on the white board rather than just keep talking throughout the whole session. It can make the session more interesting and understand the concept better
