Andy,
I must take a few moments to thank you for meeting with me yesterday.  It was a whirlwind trip driving over and back and I am blown away by the fact that you opened your home and office to me, along with meeting your wonderful family, to include the newest member, the gecko.

Without any commitment on my part, I met with the man behind the web page.  You are as real and genuine as I had hoped.  I sense a ‘down to earth’ caring nature that is hard to find today.  I felt the pride that teaching brings to you. 

While we shared personal conversation, I realized that with your inspiration, knowledge and motivation—failure is not an option. While I am giving this decision the serious consideration it deserves, I am very positive about working with you.  I will be in touch.
