I feel Shawn has been very helpful with his lessons. He has helped my confidence improve with IT concepts I wasn't familiar beforehand. He gives work that helps me realize my strengths and what work on. He is also explains concepts very clearly and goes at a pace that suits me best. I would highly recommend Shawn to anyone looking to prepare for their CompTIA A+ exams.
