If you wish to meet and speak with Dr Hellmuth in person (auf Deutsch, en español, or in English) the following opportunities are upcoming:
If these dates are not convenient and you wish professional consulting services from Dr Hellmuth, FLAAR, please check out our description of consulting services on all FLAAR web sites (listed under consulting). Nicholas Hellmuth is available to fly to your location anywhere in the world or you can come here to Ohio or to our university in Guatemala and work with you in English, en español, or auf Deutsch. We also understand written French and basic spoken French but don't write or speak it well. (readerservice@flaar.org)
Please explain who you are, what you seek to get out of such a course, your approximate level (beginners are considered as well as seasoned pros), and what equipment you have (most people don't yet have the equipment which is why they want to take the courses, to learn what to buy; so it is not a pre-requisite that you already have the equipment).
We are unable to provide consulting via fax nor via this e-mail; this mode of contact is exclusively to apply for consideration to be accepted for a course. It is during the course that you will get the information and access directly with Professor Hellmuth.
Please do not use this e-mail nor fax for questions on hardware or software: with 20,000+ readers per month on this web site we are not able to answer personal questions individually unless you seek professional consulting services on a regular fee basis. If you wish information, this is readily available via the FLAAR Free First Level Reports, which can only be accessed by filling out the inquiry forms.
