I had previously carried out this course many years ago, and left feeling disheartened as I struggled to keep up with the pace. However my experience this time has been completely different, I have understood everything and Alan was great at explaining things in a digestible way. The course notes are brilliant and far beyond what I expected. I am leaving this course today feeling confident to take forward what I have learnt.

Marek was an excellent tutor. He was very personable, very patient, and very clear with his explanations. His technical abilities were excellent and he exuded a sense that he knew what he was talking about and that he was the person to help us on our learning journey. This made it easy to trust him. He made the course very enjoyable. Overall the communication and the administrational processes from xchange training was excellent. When I called to enquire about the course the phone was answered within a couple rings, and the person I spoke to was able to explain the content of the course as well as its suitability for me based on my description of my current ability. There was thorough email correspondence from the time of booking and payment all the way through to the pre-course reminder the day before the course. Very happy with my experience

A bespoke one day course was arranged due to me being the only attendee. Alan delivered an excellent session, taking the time to understand my learning needs at the start. His delivery was great, with the right balance of friendly and professional. The pace was just right, and Alan took the time to explain key steps as we progressed. Technology and connectivity was smooth and easy. Overall, very happy with what was covered and the excellent supporting materials provided. Thanks!
