My focus is helping professionals use ChatGPT and AI with more confidence, clarity, and practical purpose. I’m also in the top 3% of ChatGPT users worldwide (According to OpenAI) which means I spend a lot of hands-on time testing what actually works in real use and not just chasing the latest AI hype.
Many people know AI is important, but they feel overwhelmed by the constant updates, confusing features, and pressure to keep up. They wonder: What should I actually use AI for? Am I prompting it correctly? How do I avoid generic answers? What is safe to put into AI? How do I avoid losing my own judgment?
That is where I can help.
My style is friendly, practical, and engaging. I like to make complex topics feel simple, useful, and even fun. Instead of flooding you with theory or buzzwords, I focus on real workplace problems turning scattered thoughts into useful next steps.
My courses are designed to be clear, practical, and easy to apply. Instead of overwhelming you with theory or technical jargon, I focus on examples, prompts, workflows, and step-by-step demonstrations you can actually use.

I gained basic essential knowledge about forex trading and how to start as a beginner. The rule of thumb tips really stuck with me. I’ll go dig up and digest his other technical analysis courses as well. Great work.
By Mr Paul Woods on 11/4/2024
I started this free course with zero knowledge. This was very clear and well presented. It gives a very good overview of all sections which obviously are explained in more depth in the paid for courses. As a beginner this was very imformative and explained in a way that I could understand.
By Megan on 10/9/2024
course was helpful, i learned a few new things that i didn't know from the start. i was happy that he kept it simple and used examples, i think it would be a good course for beginners. i would like to look at his other courses as well.

Such a comprehensive overview for the beginners. The important thing is that the comtent isn't too complex for the beginners and this course has really helped me understanding the Forex. GOOD WORK!!!
By Martin Kiarie Njuguna on 12/15/2023
It's quite detailed and informative. I like that he pointed out to go for a technical analysis course for further learning because this is much more theoretical. I now want more practical.

You should have explained those things on a real charts not on a PowerPoint presentation. It’s just useless don’t waste your time watching it
By Stanley Wayne Sambang on 9/4/2023
Short but very comprehensive what I had been looking for as a beginner. This course make me understand in general at one go. Will be watching it again to deeply understand it overall.
By Victor Morales on 11/16/2022
Just started and so far, things are basic which is what I expected. EDIT: Finished the course. I am over 60 years old. NEVER liked anything to do with finance or accounting in my career. In fact, this dislike has held me back many times. Lately I have been curious about investing but with my dislike of finance and accounting, I needed a course that would be easy to follow and understand and would capture and retain my interest. Tried a few other courses and honestly, the instructors were like drones. All I achieved was a total lack of interest and quit withing the first half hour. Until I came across Steve's introductory course on Forex. I am by no means a Forex guru now but I have a real understanding about what I am about to get myself into. More importantly, I am enjoying myself learning all about this. I finally feel like I will learn and understand the basic survival skills I will need for that day I make my first live trade. Changed my review to 5 stars. Steve is no drone. Speaks in an easy to follow and understand language. He "makes" you understand things as he goes along. Rarely did I have to go back to re-listen to a lesson. He give you a real sense of confidence in yourself when it comes to investing. He will see me in more of his courses.

The presentation was very clear and precise, the order as well is great and easy to follow. On the technical side of things audio was excellent and the slide presentations are well arrange and clear. A great lecture and I do recommend for anyone who may want to learn especially if you are new in forex.
By Maura Vervaet on 9/25/2021
It is very understandable for complete beginners, I know nothing about the subject but at the end I feel like I have the basics now. Very interesting and I never had the feeling I was going to fall asleep (which sometimes happens with other courses)
