Liberty Central School District,
Wurtsboro, NY

“I worked with Andy when he first started teaching in Lee County, at Lehigh Acres Middle School. He was an art teacher. Andy was an AMAZING teacher! His students loved him and his class projects were so creative. He created websites to display the student work, and their art was all over the school. He is dynamic and inventive, always knowing what the most modern computer technology is to create with. I highly recommend Andy for a position teaching students technology and/or art. He also is quite the artist himself, as through our connection on Facebook, I still am amazed at the things he creates.”

Gina Lombardo
Former Director of Programs,
Foundation for Lee County Public Schools,
Ft. Myers, FL

“Andy Jeter is one of the most professional people I have had the pleasure of working with at the School District of Lee County. He is innovative and responsive to the needs of the community. I have been extremely fortunate to have had Andy available to me when a technological need arose. Not only is he professional and competent, he is compassionate and open to the needs of the community around him. I am very proud that I have had the opportunity to work with this level of professional.”


Dan Cowan
Co-Founder SKAspot, Client

“I have been and continue to be fortunate to work with Andy on several music projects. Andy is the founder and owner/operator of SKAspot, a global website that promotes the ska music genre (as well as Reggae and Rocksteady). He has created the best ska music resource on the web, one that serves hundreds of bands and thousands of fans.
I operate the Canadian sister company 'Skaspot Live Network' and we have worked together on many band and concert tour related projects over the past 5 years. He is extremely talented and skilled as an internet graphic artist, video producer and music programmer. He spends countless hours working on projects that benefit others in the global music community. His latest effort has created a ska channel on internet radio that delivers the best ska music 24 hrs a day - a total treat for us ska lovers but better yet, it promotes an amazing amount of radio exposure for new and previously unknown bands.
Andy is a successful teacher in Southern Florida who has been nominated multiple times for the Golden Apple award which is an indication of how much he is loved by his students and respected by his peers. I give Andy Jeter my highest recommendation and encourage anyone who has the opportunity to work or consult with Andy to do so. It will be to your benefit.""
