I was initially excited to work with Brian because of his experience and stated sensitivity to neurodiverse learners. I had a great consultation with him, and he was generous with his time during our first paid session with an at-length intake of where I’m at. Afterward, I reached out with a simple request for a couple of actionable tips so I could stay engaged and productive between sessions. In response, Brian sent a series of messages that were unexpectedly disparaging and personal. He made accusations about my motivation and approach, listing “red flags” about me that did not reflect the tone or content of our single session at all. The shift in tone from constructive to criticism, as well as volume of his messages over the following days was not at all appropriate for a professional coaching relationship. My limited experience with Brian did not reflect the supportive, tailored method he advertises and left me uncomfortable continuing. I would not recommend him for learners seeking a respectful, patient teaching approach.

I don't mind toughness and being held accountable, but I don't appreciate being talked down to. I felt that she had no confidence in my maths ability and that in turn affected my confidence and performance.
