  • Gary is great, and the way he delivers the class is fun and easy to follow. He clearly understands and is able to guide all students. I love his class!

  • Gary was very good at explaining consumer behavior in the simplest way possible.

  • Gary makes the topic interesting, and he makes sure everyone fully understands it. While trying to make the class as interactive as possible. It is one of the best courses I have taken throughout my education.

  • I love the practical examples that the course exposed us to. Gary really touched a lot of things when explaining the course, the examples he gave us were awesome and I learnt a lot.

  • The way Gary presented the subject is very clear and made me understand the concepts easily. I liked learning about each of the theories.

  • Gary truly cares about his profession. He is so knowledgeable, very kind and always there to answer all of our questions. I would like to thank him for such a wonderful module.

  • Recalling my past knowledge about consumer behaviors and psychology lessons... now Gary matched them up, mixing all the materials to hit a bigger target in analysing how consumers react, purchase, and response from those aspects.

  • Very interesting concepts that are important for us to understand consumer (and our own) psychology and behavioural patterns better. Gary focuses less on textual learning and more on class participation and discussions.

  • I liked that the theories are used in our daily life practise. The course was eye-opening regarding how marketing strategies strongly leverage the behaviours of the consumers, and it is really helpful.

  • I am glad this course focuses on the learning process and rather the understanding of how relevant it is to your work while discussing how you apply it to our own cadence.

It’s not what they drive that counts but what drives them.”
