Mr Edman was professional and very helpful. My son was struggling with English and Mr Edman was able to help him prepare for his exam. My son found him very easy to work with and said it really did make a big difference to him. My son was much more confident going in to his exams. My son has ADHD and Mr Edman was able to relate to him well. We will definitely be using him again in the future. Highly recommend.

Patience of a saint! My son was highly disengaged from school with minimal social skills and struggles meeting new people. Peter was able to gently encourage him to engage in his school work and achieve high passing marks to complete year 10. I highly recommend Peter if your child is behind or is disengaged from school.

I cannot begin to put into words how much Peter has helped me, but I'm going to try. Peter has been my advocate as I'm disabled with ASD lvl 2. I also have PTSD from complex trauma which is important to explain this review. My situation has been particularly tricky with some awful people involved. Peter's helped me feel safer and taught me about how patient and kind people can be. He's been working incredibly hard to help me with things and when I've had trouble speaking up for myself because of feeling scared or overwhelmed he is firm and tells people in a no-nonsense way that they cannot treat me poorly. I also can be nervous around men in particular because of my PTSD, but being around Peter feels different. He understands that I get triggered and scared of things and reassures me and things which would once reduce me to tears when I was younger don't do so anymore. If I need help talking to someone like making a phone call and explaining things he sits with me and it makes everything feel less overwhelming and we break things down. I was terrified about what was going to happen when my family kicked me out (which is a whole story in and of itself) but Peter stepped up and helped me with all these things which were stressful and there was no possible way I could have done myself like trying to figure out how to get my things into storage. When I was being harassed by realtors on the behalf of my parents he explained the situation and got me more time. He's quite direct in how he communicates and forthright which is really helpful because when I feel scared I can have trouble knowing what to do or how to say no and he helps me do that. Society may not listen to me as much because I am a young disabled woman, but they listen to Peter. I'm glad that I have someone advocating for me with such a strong voice, especially when I feel not the most confident in myself at the moment. Peter is also helping to uplift me and has been really encouraging and sweet to me. He has a lot of connections and goes the extra mile with searching and calling all kinds of people and it makes me feel hopeful that things are going to be okay even though things have been so bad. I feel like I'm finally going to start a new chapter in my life where things are going to get better and it's already heading that way. Peter cares and he's funny and he actually listens to me when I've had a lot of trouble in the past with feeling infantilised due to my disability. I cannot recommend him enough; it's been legitimately life changing.
