Thank you so much for helping me! Do you have a good resource to follow for positioning of center of mass in relation to the axel? I am struggling on this!

Hi, thank you for the videos, truly enjoy them. I was wondering if you tutor NBCOT. I really need help to prepare for the exam. Also, is it possible to do a video on splints?

[@degrasi135790]

I recommend OT help desk

[@MsBoss_Laddy]

Thank you, really appreciate it.

[@metalderp8847]

I think PasstheOT has courses you can take that offer private tutoring

Another beautiful submission. Pls spell your name for me so I can refer to you by name. I am interested in knowing more about the different frames and make. And what are the likely question for a band 6 wheelchair Therapist. Alimi Talayo. I want to have a change of scene, climate and job description also. Your coaching will be of great help
