Although Matthew van der Giessen is a highly trained and experienced practitioner, he is an extremely poor teacher to be running a school. Little to no feedback or help, and an extremely difficult personality to deal with as a student. More focused on his own ego and self-declared superiority then on actually being a mentor. He also has genuine anger management issues towards his students. I have had bad teachers in my life(as we all do), and I’m not one to complain, but I am writing this because I am genuinely disgusted by this school. Feel like he took my money and provided nothing in return. So many better teaching institutions out there. Avoid at all costs!
