Hi, this is Kathy. I've been an educator for 33 years. I'm now helping tutor students, mostly students who have ADD or ADHD and I have found the Memory Skills Made Easy as a fantastic program to teach the students. I want to tell you recently, something that happened to me. I was tutoring my 9th grade nephew, Will, who has ADD. He really really enjoyed memorizing the states and the presidents He even called his Dad into the room to tell him what he had memorized. He had done the memorization in a matter of minutes. And he retained the information two days later when I asked him. I was helping him study for his exams and we were applying all the techniques in Memory Skills Made Easy and it was so easy for him to apply and he really enjoyed studying this way. It's a very creative way. Just last night, while studying Biology terms, he said to me, "You know what? I think the best way to learn is to use the Roman Room. His self confidence is so much better and he is doing fantastic on all his finals. And I just want to reiterate again that Memory Skills Made Easy is fantastic!

Hi, this is Star calling from New York. I'm an Administrator of a high school and last month I ordered the Memory Skills Made Easy ebook and videos from Jim Sarris. I was quite surprised because it was something I had always thought of doing but someone actually had the intelligence to write it down. It is a wonderful concept and I have found it to be very helpful not only professionally, but also personally with my own daughter who has learning disabilities. The techniques and strategies that Jim has used are wonderful for students. I was very excited to share it with my teachers after I had used it with my own child because I saw the benefit. My teachers now are starting to put it in place and it is across the curriculum there. Social Studies, English teachers...and they're very excited about it as I am, too. I am seeing my daughter is actually enjoying it and coming up with her own strategies to remember things. So, Memory Skills Made Easy has been very helpful to me as I said, not only professionally but also personally. So, I recommend it highly. The DVD is enjoyable to watch. Jim makes the reading very very easy and it has been such a helpful tool in my school as well as with my daughter. I highly recommend Jim Sarris' Memory Skills Made Easy to any parent as well as any administrator or teacher who want to help and assist their students in memory skills. Congratulations Jim Sarris!
