Gas: Mr John Forbes
The preparation for the exam was demanding and challenged my understanding of the subject and I'm more than grateful for that approach. The support given was tremendous but in no way spoon fed. The validation of the learning process was well constructed and relevant. Thank you all for help from office staff to tutors.
Electrical: Mr Mark Graves
A very enjoyable and rewarding experience. The practical week has really helped to explain some of the home learning and put it into a more readily understandable context. This has really helped to motivate me to get studying in preparation for the next practical week. Thank you.
Plumbing: Mrs Janice Helas
Another excellent week of practical training. Tutor is informative and very positive whilst allowing us to figure things out ourselves first. Looking forward to returning for my Level 3 practical.
Renewables: Mr Victor Riofrio Piedra
I have learnt a lot this week. Well prepared and well organised, a big thank for the tutor for the help and support and explanation was easy to understand the principles of the training.
Welding: Mr Adam Fearon
Tutor is a fantastic teacher, knows his stuff and can explain everything clearly. The place itself is well kitted out and had everything I needed to complete the course. After completing week 7 on the third day, I was able to practise my skills making whatever I wanted, which was good. Even moved on to welding Aluminium.
