About Yann Marot: 
While at 2025 AAW Symposium Roger Dauer was able to meet several folks who know Yann well:
From a professional French turner: 'He can do anything, whatever you want to learn he can teach it.'
From a British turner: 'His English is excellent'
From a few who’ve taken his classes: He is an excellent teacher, clearly one of the best educators
From a Minnesotan Turner: 'Let me know when he is there, I might travel out for the classes'… (this guy is flying to France to take 2 weeks of courses from Yann)
Roger talked at length with an individual who studied at (and graduated from) Yann’s school in France and got good input on his demos and classes.
