I attended Narbik's class this week and it is a fantastic class. He has a
real commitment to his students.

We would be in the class at around 8am and finish up around 10pm at night
get back to the hotel and then do more labs until falling asleep around 12.
Narbik would be there at around 8:45am each day and leave at around 10pm
each night, which meant his brothers would be happy to wait around for him
because he wanted to make himself available for any questions from his
students.

He talked up all workbooks that people had studied and had the highest
regard for all other trainers.

I am independent to Narbik and had reservations going into the class. I am
sure I am a better technical person after this week and hopefully my ccie
comes soon.
