I teach stock market basics to all. Six years experience trading on the US stock exchanges (Nasdaq, NYSE, AMEX, OTC). Situated in rural Ireland, about 1hr from Dublin. Can do face-to-face or online

Strengths: Chris has a curiosity and a plan of what he wants from the stock market. He came to me having already tested the waters with some other mentors. I was able to steer him onto some strategies which will most suit his lifestyle and schedule. Where to improve: Nothing as such, he has a good sense of where he is at. As long as he keeps chipping away at the learning curve, refining a couple of trading strategies, he will find himself in a good spot in a few years time, with a bit of luck.

Grace is a good student and shows a great willingness to learn. She clearly has an interest in the subject which is very important!
