Media First Ltd Reviews

Really effective training and feedback loop that allows you to go again . You can try stuff and see how it works in real time. Definitely uncomfortable at times and that has to be the right thing. Thank you. I will practice and have more examples!!

Intensive and immersive training in how to handle difficult media interactions. A range of useful hints and tips to take away. Really useful day.

initially i was scared how the day was going to pan out but the trainers put me at ease explained everything thoroughly and guided me

Really useful training, and a good combination of theory and to camera piece. I feel a lot more confident after the course.

Really informative and beneficial to the project I am working on

Definite must have

I felt at ease and comfortable from the start as I had been somewhat apprehensive as it had been some years since any official media training. The tutors especially Damian were very adept at enabling us to improve as we went along. They encouraged me, to be me with gentle coaching which really showed in my last two interviews. Not an easy subject to get across and some excellent tips. Loved the bridging and differences between good and bad. Worthwhile and the time flew by which is always a good sign. From start to finish, including Laura at base assisting with queries, it was a very hands on and positive experience. Thank you!

Tips on how to engage audience, channel nervous energy, how to answer difficult questions

Really knowledgeable course hosts, really took the time to individually feedback. It was a really engaging day and I didn’t switch off once!

The training was very insightful on how to prepare for a radio or TV interview. There were lots of useful tips to help keep the interview on message and ways in which you can make that message more focused to reach an audience. The exercises were practical and helped me rehearse for interviews in a safe setting and then time to reflect on the learning from that experience and to adjust my response in a real time interview setting. This training was time well spent and delivered by experienced professionals who were able to show me and my colleagues techniques that upskilled us to be better prepared for when we're next asked to take part in an interview.
