"I really enjoyed my course today. Nathan was very personable and informative. The content was interesting and useful. I would recommend Media Training."
"Rob was thorough with his approach to teaching the course and provided varied examples to show how to create different effects and correct clips with varying problems and/or styles, which I found particularly useful. I found the 1-2-1 training to be beneficial as I could ask questions as we went along - this is exactly what I have been looking for and it was tailored to my existing knowledge which meant I could fill the gaps and cover the topics I have been struggling with as necessary. The staff are all friendly and approachable, and the food at lunch and during the breaks was really great (I particularly enjoyed the cakes and hot chocolate!) I would definitely recommend the course and will look to return in the future."
