What our participants say

The whole course was well put together. Initially, when I started the course, I was a bit overwhelmed, as I hadn’t studied since I’d been at school, but Tom made it easy to follow and understandable.

Overall, excellent, had my reservations about attending course prior to starting. However, so pleased I did! The instructor, Orsi, was brilliant, informative, patient, and calm. It made the learning an enjoyable and worthwhile experience.

This was very informative, and I found it easier to attend it on Zoom as it saved travel time and hassle. The tutor and the rest of the group were amazing, thank you too all!

I applied for a job as an LSA at a special needs school two weeks ago, and I’ve been offered the position! The start date is still to be discussed since it's half-term next week, and there are still some relevant checks to go through. However, they were extremely happy with the effort and support I was able to offer the children. Everything I’ve learned through this course, I can confidently take with me into my future role within a school.

An enjoyable course despite being on maths! Tutor was very aware of different learning needs / levels of each learner and adapts to them without compromising flow of teaching sessions.

Shelley is an amazing teacher! She makes everyone understand and explains everything in detail and covers all aspects of a situation. She involved everyone in the class to participate and treated everyone equally. I will miss this course and my lovely teacher Shelley.
