Highly effective
The course was highly effective, and well organised. The tutor seemed an expert on supporting teaching and learning in schools, and I learned a lot through this course which I hope to apply in my role as a teaching assistant.
Good tutor
I was impressed by the level of skill and knowledge the tutor possessed. He presented the course well, it was engaging and interesting. Good job done!
Well thought out
The course was well thought out and structured. The content was broken down to simplify the more complex sections. This made it easy for someone like me who is a beginner and had a better understanding of the subject matter.
