Course Reviews

Good tutor, good course. Would have liked a bit more hands on and less regs related info ( but I understand this is necessary part of the qualification). It was hard for tutor to keep an eye on everyone and answer questions during the hands on - an assistant would have made it easier. The pace overall was about right and multiple exposure of the same material helped with retention.
