Neil was very clear, knowledgable and helpful.

The course covered a wide range of Figma topics and Ben's explanation of auto-layout, component building and prototyping was incredibly clear. A lot of tutorials brush over the 'why' behind certain settings, but the way Ben broke down the concepts step-by-step made them incredibly easy to digest.

JG
Matt's delivery was excellent, he was able to go through the content at a pace that worked really well, showing us all the bits and pieces to do with Illustrator and InDesign that I was interested in. I came away feeling like I learned a lot, knowing what we can use in our work now, and what we can look out for in the future has been extremely useful. Communication prior to the course was great, we were sent course materials the day before that we were going to be using on the day which was really helpful, it gave me a bit of a preview of what to expect from the day. We had a couple of breaks throughout the day to give us time away from our screens which I found useful to pause and reset for a bit before going back.

PN
I’ve gathered the team’s feedback and we all wanted to say how valuable we found the two-day InDesign course. It gave us a clear understanding of everything from setting up documents and working with text, images and layouts to using colour, shared libraries and export options. Seeing how we can apply these skills to the materials we create as a team was especially useful. Matt was brilliant and is a real asset to your team. He explained each step clearly, made a lot of information feel approachable and gave us the confidence to ask questions and practise as we went. We’ve come away feeling much more confident about using InDesign in our day-to-day work.

Learnt alot on the course today which will help us to be more productive and same time in setting up documents.

KB Diamond Light Source
The timings were ideal, with blocks of approx 1hr 15 mins of learning, then a break. Two days felt right. Tasks felt as though they were (where possible) real-world examples. One of the best tasks was being taught how to draw a mug and a tea cup and having the 'finished' example at the top of the page. I think this could be used more across other courses because sometimes as a learner it's hard to know the aim/point of a task when you're being talked through it. Vicky was really good at explaining what we were going to be doing/aiming for before we started each task, which gave it more meaning and it made more sense. Everything felt manageable, even though the second day progressed to more difficult tasks. It was helpful to learn the AI elements within Illustrator as I didn't know they were a feature. The drawing tasks were really helpful. Vicky was so well prepared, keen to help and clearly loves what she does. The additional notes about each day's learning highlighted this and shows she understands how people learn and remember. It was also helpful that she has experience across other Adobe programs (e.g. InDesign, Bridge).
LB
A very wide range of skills was covered over the two days. Vicki went above and beyond to even make us summary notes to help us after the course was finished. The amount of resources is also very helpful to allow us to keep practising once the course is finished, so we do not forget everything we learnt. It was all very much appreciated!
TM
Friendly, helpful, constantly checking if we understood
FN
Very informative, knowledgeable and personable trainer. Nice small group. Clear instructions about arrival and facilities etc.
MR
The whole course was very satisfactory, Simon is a great trainer and I'm more than happy with the day.

CC HaysMac
Everything was very well structured and organised, the class size was manageable and the screen sharing meant Vicki could provide 1-1 support if anyone came across any issues. I love that we now have post-course examples to continue practicing with as well. Overall, very impressed and I wouldn't hesitate to do another course with you. Vicki really knows her stuff! She was able to take something I was completely new to and would have been overwhelmed by if attempting to learn by myself and make it feel straight forward and easy, which is a great foundation to be starting from now.
GA Great Walstead School
Vicki was extremely knowledgeable, and her passion for the subject really came across throughout the course. She took a genuine interest in everyone attending, taking the time to understand our individual job roles, why we were taking part in the training and what we wanted to gain from it. This made the course feel much more personal and relevant rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. The course itself was also structured really well across the two days. There was a good balance between learning, practical activities and discussion, with adequate breaks and plenty of opportunities to ask questions. Vicki was always happy to explain things further, and her knowledge and enthusiasm made the training both engaging and enjoyable. I would recommend this course to anyone.
SP CA Group
Great engagement, good number of exercises to fully demonstrate how to do things, plenty of chance for asking questions
MW Herrco Cosmetics
Vicki was really patient and always took the time to explain if people had questions.

The range of topics was comprehensive and it progressed well over the 2 days, from simple to more difficult. The teaching pace and the timing of breaks was really good. The size of the online class was good - it felt as though you could ask questions without anyone having to wait around for too long.

AC Gibraltar Tourist Board
The one-on-one format worked really well for me and made for a much more effective learning experience. The pace felt much more suited to my level, as concepts only needed to be explained once before we could move on. While I appreciate that this isn't representative of the standard course experience, I found the session engaging, efficient, and tailored to my needs, which made it particularly valuable.

Ian was a great trainer who was very friendly. He was really clear in his explanations and put extra effort into answering our questions even if the answer wasn't immediately obvious.

I also learnt about software on Ai that I didn't even know existed. Its been a very positive experience.

Excellent clear instructions. Great feedback. Loved the inclusion of new AI tools.
WM UCL
Really well prepared and the tutor is knowledgeable, the tech was all joined up and worked flawlessly, the office setting is top notch. Nice extra touches like a notebook and biro to support retaining the knowledge. It feels like you genuinely want us to learn, not necessarily drip feeding knowledge to sell another course (I'm thinking of business models I've seen elsewhere, not at media training)
IC UCL
Great course, good pace. Fun selection of photos and projects to work through and appreciated Simo's openness to questions and steer. Really enjoyed it.
RB
Simo was fantastic trainer, patiently taking us through each stage with knowledge, enthusiasm and passion.

The trainer was very knowledgeable and helpful. The resources supplied were very useful and I was impressed with what could be done. I had dabbled in generative AI previously but now I feel I can do more with it. I'm excited to use it more in my everyday work and to help me with more creative campaigns.

Matt was excellent and explained everything clearly throughout the two day course. If anyone had any issues or didn’t understand something, Matt would go back and explain it again in more detail. He was very patient and made the sessions easy to follow. Matt also showed us useful shortcuts and helpful tips and tricks which made the course even more valuable.

The course was thorough and well detailed. I was able to keep up with note taking and following the examples with the speed we were going. Also good at going over anything we were unsure of which was helpful. I felt i was engaged and able to pay attention throughout which isn't always the case!
