Your Multimedia Cyber Classroom is by far the best learning tool I have. Keep up the great work!

—Bill Nelson

I have purchased four programming sets from you now: one on Visual Basic, one for C++, and one just ordered for Java. I find your course structures very helpful and well designed. Most especially, I find your line-by-line explanations of example programs extremely beneficial. It is very rare that programmers are equally as proficient in their writing skills.

—Hal LeTourneau, Computer Science Student

I purchased your textbook Java 2 How to Program, Third Edition a few months ago. The book is outstanding; I cannot put it down. Bear in mind that I am no programmer in any language by any stretch of imagination. However, I am learning Java on my own for personal development and your textbook is doing a fantastic job of teaching me.

—Ken Yeates-Trotman, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Delaware
