"Our students are learning disabled and many of them have attention issues. When Marko came to entertain...during dinner, they were mesmerized. (Presenting) on the topic of drugs and alcohol, Marko tied magic in with the illusions created by substance abuse and, because he had their attention, they heard an important message in a very creative way."

"Marko performed an exciting closing session for our Teen Pregnancy Prevention Conference and managed to hold the attention of 100 eighth grade students after lunch at the Balsams Grand Resort - no small feat! Along with his fascinating magic acts, he interwove messages to the students about self-esteem, self-respect, and the importance of realizing that the decisions they make today affect the rest of their lives."

"Marko is one of the friendliest performers I have known. He is very patient and loves to see the kid's jaws drop with his magic. (After) the show everyone leaves with a huge smile on his or her face. There are no disappointments with Marko. His magic is incredible!!!"

"Marko came to our school for three different sessions to work with my students and teach them some magic tricks. He did a fantastic job teaching the children. It will be one of the most memorable times of their school year. You would find it most beneficial, as he has a great rapport with the children and definitely holds their attention."

"Marko The Magician has come to our library several times...His show has broad appeal for young and old alike. Young children are fascinated...older children try to figure out what he's up to, and adults (me, in particular!) can't stop laughing at his humor! Whenever we advertise for Marko, we have to turn people away at the door, or else break fire code. I highly recommend him!"
