41 YEARS' EXPERIENCE
"Daniel was very patient. Especially with an audience of younger children, many of which had special needs. He was able to accommodate all ages and abilities in his presentation and demonstrated an intimate understanding of the children and maintain their interest. Daniel was able to keep the flow going and redirect student behaviors in age appropriate ways. He has a natural way with children and we look forward to his return!"
