SimplySteno Dream Boards

Have a clear vision of your goals and dreams.

We all have goals and dreams. Dream Boards are a great way for court reporting students to express them in a concrete, visual way – to share with other students – to show that we’re all in this together. I suggest placing your Dream Board in a place where you can see it each day – maybe the place where you do your steno practice. Just a quick glance before you start practice – and a quick glance at the end – that little bit of inspiration may be that little boost you need while you’re attending your court reporting school or program.

“I’m very grateful too for all the help you provided while I was a SimplySteno student, It has helped me to make it into an actual courtroom at last! I’m into my second week of work as a trainee court reporter at the Royal Courts of Justice in London!”

Client Testimonials

I just got word today that my reinstatement application was accepted and I am going to be returning to the NY State Court System as a Senior Court Reporter. I had been an Official Court Reporter back in 1992, and was subsequently hired on as a Senior Court Reporter in 1998. I left in 2002. I want to thank you so much for the amazing program you have created. I really appreciate all of your kind words of encouragement throughout my experience in the program. There were times when I didn't think I would get back to my old speeds, never mind pass all four legs of the RPR! Thank you for all you have done to get me through the program.

Brigette Bachert, RPR

I have come a long way since I started your court reporting program last year. Marc, I want to thank you for letting me be your first court reporting student who happens to be blind. Thank you for accommodating my needs and for working with me. Thank you for believing in me and for not giving up on me. It has been a privilege to have been one of your students.

This program was EXACTLY what I needed! Being accountable to the SimplySteno program was the boost and incentive I was looking for with the ease of working with my own schedule. I really looked forward to getting practice in without having to think about finding material, etc. It’s all there and really works. I’m back in the world of court reporting again.

I passed my CSR exam for Texas. I just want to say to all the Simply Steno students that this program works. If you follow the method to Marc's madness, it will pay off. His program helped push me over the top. Follow his advice on your daily practice schedule!!

SimplySteno is a real step forward in speedbuilding. It is a down-to-earth approach that recognizes that court reporting students aren’t training in a vacuum. It gives plenty of support and direction for succeeding in spite of the distractions of everyday life. I started with SimplySteno at 190 words per minute. One month later, I passed my state exam. During my time with SimplySteno, Marc was quick with feedback and encouragement. He graded tests quickly. When I was getting ready to start reporting, he was standing by, quick to express his confidence in my ability. He offered help with arranging intern opportunities. The dictation material is challenging, but as Marc says, if you can write his material, you will have no trouble passing certification tests. SimplySteno is a great program. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to progress rapidly and get inspired about being a court reporter again – and not go deeply into debt in the process!

Linda Grotefendt, CCR

A little over 2 hours of my day and I feel like I learned more and got more accomplished then I ever have. Its amazing how you can go from writing 6 hours a day and be so bored, frustrated, and annoyed that you don't feel like you accomplished anything. Today I stayed hooked up for 2 hours and actually feel accomplished, satisfied, and eager to move forward. Even though the material was way more challenging, for the first time ever, I am actually looking forward to what tomorrow will bring. Yay!! I am so excited and thrilled that I trusted my gut instinct. Joining SimplySteno was the best decision I have ever made! I am so ready to climb to the top of that mountain!

I'm very grateful too for all the help you provided while I was a SimplySteno student, It has helped me to make it into an actual courtroom at last! I'm into my second week of work as a trainee court reporter at the Royal Courts of Justice in London!

Loiuse Frith (Royal Courts of Justice)

I am a returning reporter after being out of the field for 16 years. I went to a school that had a high pass rate, and SimplySteno is run much the same way. The ample amount of dictation is dense and clear, and Marc's support is always just an email away. It's almost like having a personal trainer in that the program is geared to meet my individual needs. I didn't think I could do it on my own, but I was wrong! Thanks, Marc!

Caryn Spiezer, CSR

This is a phenomenal program and I could not have gotten to where I'm at now without you. My speed is back and it's all thanks to you!

Solomon Rodgers

I really enjoyed the flexibility this program had to offer. Being able to access my daily lessons at anytime day or night made it much easier for me to practice, based on my non-traditional schedule. Even with the program being fully remote, I still feel connected to other students in the program when we meet during zoom calls. And the price is too good to turn down.

Dream Boards can be made by using clippings from magazines, printing out images from the Internet, drawn by hand, crafted with things you utilize around the house. There’s no limit to how you can assemble your dreams! Don’t believe me? Take a look at the link above to see what other students have created.

SimplySteno students may be online, but that doesn’t mean they can’t socialize with others trying to improve their skills. With our live classes and Facebook page, students are free to chat with each other as much or as little as they like.

We encourage you to look over our testimonials and ask SimplySteno students how they’ve enjoyed the online program. Because we know what the response will be – they love it! With 100% daily structure and constant feedback, it’s all you need to move forward in your speeds and achieve your steno goals.
