    "Peter was a great teacher; he had great patience and took us through everything until we were confident with it. Class sizes were great. Often when too big, it can seem overwhelming to contribute. The time given for tasks was great and the tasks set were easy to understand but also challenging in a good way.

Previously, I had zero understanding or knowledge of InDesign and now I can do considerably a lot more. Very pleased."
