Bio
Dana Arsenault
Wolf is an incredibly brilliant teacher. His advice and mentoring have always stayed with me, and have dictated how I handle certain situations in my career. His coaching sessions gave me the confidence I needed to make the strides I did in my career. He creates a supportive, friendly and challenging environment in order for his students to make significant growth as a professional. I am very grateful for having had Wolf as my teacher.
Nicole Kadziolka
I had the pleasure of being taught by Wolf when I attended the Event Management program at The Art Institute of Vancouver. It was there that he taught me Business Communications and Professional Development. Thanks to his help with these classes I have received very positive feedback about my resume, web page and various other documents he helped me with through out these classes. Wolf was always a supportive teacher and it is refreshing to see how much he wants his students to succeed. If given the opportunity I would not hesitate to be taught by Wolf again.
