Comments from Teachers on courses

I was so amazed to have Frank to help kick off my education career. The teaching course is so systemic, informative, and constructive. The timing is just right! Frank is always very kind, patient, and helpful and truly cares about how we become professionals. His sense of humor always makes the techniques easy to understand. Specific examples help us to remember well. This course inspired me to be more confident in my career!

What impressed me most is that you can always come up with new ideas every day and the appropriate teaching strategies are always transmitted to us in a communicative and analytical way.

I found the course to be very well organised, thorough and totally comprehensive. I am not sure what my expectations were before beginning the course but I'm sure I never envisaged covering so much ground in such a short period of time… The tuition has been a very high standard.

This was the most challenging course I have ever done and it was definitely the most rewarding.

I feel a great sense of satisfaction on completion of the teaching practice units, after all it was the main reason I took the course in the first place - I wanted to become a better teacher. I think I have achieved that goal, I'm acutely aware of my own development through self appraisal in the feedback from Frank.

I can confidently say that my teaching has improved dramatically since the beginning of this course. I have learned many new techniques and have tried to incorporate these into my own methods.

I was tutored throughout by an absolute professional whose own wealth of experience I came to recognise as being essentially the essence of what good teaching is about.

I don't think I would have survived this without Frank, his constant guidance and sense of humour.

Frank is a very competent tutor - very able and very supportive in all aspects.
