CeMAP® - Certificate in Mortgage Advice & Practice Reviews

David was a great host, as he kept the learning fun and insightful. He had a big task of teaching 20 individuals that were not in the same room as him, so he did a great job with getting everyone involved. His real-life examples and stories were particularly useful and helped me a lot in the real exam. The structure of the course was great, as we had frequent short breaks and a nice long lunch break. There was no stress at any point and was a nice, relaxing experience whilst simultaneously intense. David made sure we had a customizable experience, meaning we wouldn't waste time on a topic we were all very confident with. The only downside of the course was the end of topic questions, where everyone would answer 3-5 topic-related questions in the chat function. As everyone's answers were sent publicly, the questions were not as challenging as the activity turned into a 'repeating the first answer sent'. It is a minor fault but perhaps a slightly more competitive tone could be adopted for this section, as I found myself sometimes turning the chat off and answering independently. Some end of topic questions were briefly skipped over, even when we had all put the incorrect answer - however I appreciate this may be due to time constraints. I feel like a great solution to this would be sending answers to David exclusively, to provide true answers from the students. Despite David's brilliant teaching method's, I wasn't a massive fan of the '0 right, 1 right, 2 right, 3 right or all right' approach. I found myself overthinking constantly about if it was a trick question or I was over analysing the question. Again, I feel this confused the chat more causing a chain reaction of answers. This had an adverse effect in my exam, as I felt I was tricking myself into thinking all answers were right. I appreciate David's 'master tip' of not changing your answers after answering them, and I believe this is what helped me ultimately pass my exam. I passed the exam with 2 Merit Passes and couldn't be happier!! Thank you David :)

Relevant course materials well presented by a highly experienced and capable trainer. David Beever is a superb lecturer, really knows his product, and entertaining too - which aids in facilitating long term retention of the facts. One small niggle only with Simply Academy's email support offering - relatively slow response time in relation to enquiries. Apart from that, can't fault them. Would definitely recommend!

I thought David did an excellent job. His experience and knowledge that he was able to put across and help with understanding the course really helped. Would highly recommend a course that David is presenting. I'm hoping that when I come to study CeMap 2 & 3 that I can book with David for that too

Pete is a fantastic teacher, i tried to do the exam before but Pete found he put words into English and made the understanding alot easier to learn got my exam Friday so fingers crossed i pass but i have cemap 2 - 3 next week looking forward the class

David was really knowledgeable and went through the coursework thoroughly. It’s a vast course with ample to retain. But the mapping was done really well. Really happy to be part of the session. Good luck Simply Academy team.

A fantastic course to attend and I will highly recommend to contact Simple Academy if you wish to study CeMap. Peter is very thorough in his teaching and also very welcoming too. I will be booking my CeMap 2 and 3 very soon.

Alan was a fantastic teacher and made the course enjoyable! His positive can do attitude and training style is second to none.

Pete was great as a trainer - explained things really well to help understand in 'simple English'. Also a big shout out to his humour getting us through a tough week.

I always felt it’s easier to have a subject taught to you, and it’s even more so when someone knows what they’re talking about! Alan is great and any obscure questions, he knew the answers to and if he didn’t, he’d find the answer out very quickly. Genuinely one of my favourite teachers that I’ve had in my life

Venue was awful always had to ask for water and coffee and milk everyday not replenished enough
