5 out of 5 starsI highly recommend Simon’s EPPP study materials! As a visual learner, I found them incredibly easy to read and such a great tool for improving recall and retaining information. They saved me a ton of time that I would have otherwise spent creating my own study documents, and the price is incredibly reasonable for the quality. I was also so impressed with Simon’s communication and support. He was genuinely kind, quick to respond, and very helpful whenever I had questions about the material. You can tell he really cares about helping others succeed. Highly recommend!!!!

Thank you for your kind words - As students (and teachers) we are constantly fighting to retain and effectively apply this important information to exams and when helping clients in our practice. I look forward to creating better and better resources.

Thank you very much! I am glad these help. It is a powerful thing to see a record of how you are reaching your daily goals...and it makes you feel good even when some of them are getting done.

5 out of 5 starsI’m thrilled with the “Psychology and Communication on Psy Ward” poster—it’s become an essential visual guide for my team. I moonlight at a rehab clinic where is a handful of patients who can drain the output of a small nuclear plant within seconds. It is exhaustive. These clear, practical communication strategies have dramatically improved my ability to stay put, set boundaries, and maintain therapeutic rapport without burning out. Our nursing staff shares my opinion; they tell me the poster has transformed their daily interactions, providing quick reminders that help de‑escalate tense moments and foster a calmer atmosphere for everyone. It’s a simple yet powerful tool that benefits the whole team. Highly recommended, kudos to Simon!

Thank you - we practice these strategies in the psychiatric hospital where I work - very effective when mastered.

5 out of 5 starsA Brilliant Learning Tool – “Brain Anatomy Coloring Pages for Students” I recently purchased it for my board prep, and it has quickly become an indispensable resource for both me and my teen daughter. Here’s why this product deserves a stellar rating: The detailed line drawings invite students to actively color each brain region, reinforcing anatomical terminology and spatial relationships far better than passive textbook study. By the time the page is fully colored, the structures are practically memorized. Every illustration is meticulously crafted by a medical professional with many years of experience. Make sure to check out Simon’s Medschool Radio, too. I am a fan!

Thank you - I also found coloring to be so helpful during medical school to solidify the concepts... and relaxing too! Maybe the Med School Radio podcast will live again!
