I had the pleasure of having Linda Press as my tutor and I couldn't recommend her more, even through the first lockdown Linda was committed in providing me the best support via facetime/telephone and I couldn't have progressed and succeeded as much as I have without her! I passed my RO1 exam within 3 months and continued to finish my apprenticeship with a distinction, my full apprenticeship was completed within 14 months and I couldn't be happier with the results!

Once again, very happy with the course and trainer. Jim was great and made the content easy to follow and understand. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for effective and easy way to learn. As I am not great at self studying the classroom environment was perfect for me. After attending the course for 5 days I sat my last 2 exams on Monday and Tuesday and had no issues passing at all. Thank you once again!

Pete was brilliant, funny (in an unconventional way) and made the subject matter interesting and engaging. I haven't yet done my exam but I am not worried about it now as Pete gave me the knowledge and the confidence I needed. I'm really happy with the course and how it was taught.

I have recommended this course to many people who are looking to get in the industry, I just hope they get Paul Valpy as their teacher, as he is the best teacher I have ever had. I can't speak highly enough of how great he is. Huge thanks to him for his explanations, humour and positivity throughout the course
