I was extremely impressed by all the services provided with Simply Academy, the lecturer, the customer service on the phone and the ease of which it was all presented to us. The lecturer was very knowledgeable and ensured our course was run in a considerate way, I am back again in two weeks so looking forward to it!!!!

Alan. For everything you taught me over the last few weeks I really appreciate it, I've never found learning in a class room easy however with yourself I found that I actually enjoyed it, if only I had a teacher like yourself in school I may have actually managed a few more GCSE's!!!! Massive thank you once again on a personal and professional note. I hope our paths cross again in the future. Josh

Alan from my perspective was superb. I have a background to teaching and in my opinion his style was always on point for me. He has a natural ability to engage with his audience at all times and using real life examples to get the learning point across was always very well explained. I have no negative comments. PS: I have now passed and am a very happy customer.

I've just passed my CeMap1 exam and wouldn't have done it without Glen the trainer. I am totally new to finance so the subject matter was alien to me but not anymore! I'm looking forward to booking CeMap 2-3 in the very near future.

I recently attended the CeMAP course at Simple Academy in Newcastle and my tutor was Mr Alan Downing. As a young professional further development is always a task taken with a degree of trepidation or at least skepticism however, my concerns were immediately alleviated by both the course material and the tutor’s ability. Mr Downing provided both a superb learning environment, and in my opinion an unrivaled knowledge which I was able to draw upon. Throughout the course Alan was friendly and approachable. His personable nature, combined with his industry experience and delivery of the course material, made it literally a pleasure to learn. In line with the academy's branding, I “simply” cannot recommend this course more. I just wish to say thank you to Mr Downing and Simply Academy. I would not hesitate to use your services again.
