"The communication before the course was really fantastic, and I was a couple of minutes late, and people were calling me instantly which shows that it is a really tightly run ship!"
"Great handling of change to online training. Got a call when my laptop crashed halfway through to make sure I was able to get back online. Trainer was great and answered all questions and knew all areas."

"Everything was so great! I learned a lot, and I feel equipped with a much wider toolbox. The exercises were at a steady pace and I always felt like I could ask questions. Matt was a very competent and pedagogical trainer, and did a fantastic job with tailoring it to our work and needs. Thank you!"
"Matt was a really good trainer & I learnt a lot over the two days. Excited to get started on my own projects using my new skills and knowledge with Illustrator."

"Matt is an excellent trainer; professional, extremely knowledgeable, engaging and patient. He explained the different aspects of InDesign thoroughly and held our attention for the full two days. Everything we learnt was useful and I look forward to putting everything I have learnt into practice. Thank you!"
"Matt was very knowledgeable and always happy to help. He made it interesting and easy to follow in bite size chunks. It was great to be able to share screen if we were stuck. Really recommend."

"Matt was a great instructor. He was engaging & informative. He was also happy to go back over things we didn't understand the first time round. I'd highlight recommend doing the course with Matt and look forward to doing future courses soon."
"Matt was an amazing teacher - he was helpful, concise and didn't go off on tangents. I was completely engaged with everything we were doing and even though it was an online course, it was just as good as being there in person. The fact that there were only too people were in class was brilliant. The level the training was at was perfect and Matt catered the training to our interests and professions. I learnt much more than i expected to. Thanks so much!"
"Finding newer thinks in illustrator that were new and I didn't know.
For example the image trace tool and Pathfinder divide tool.
And off course drawing sparkly marrows!"
"Matt knows his stuff! On time, organised, well prepared and kept it interesting and fun. Great personality and he came across brilliantly in his first virtual training session (confirmed by him) I really enjoyed the small group of four that we had and I would suggest keeping the groups small where possible. Matt was also very patient with my absolute beginner skills and never had an issue with going over the same thing many many times... I would definitely come back and feel like I can go and use InDesign confidently at work, with the basics learned. Thanks very much!"
"Trainer was very patient and knowledgeable. Set up was good, as was over all design and lay out of the course. (i.e. we went at a good pace and breaks well timed)."
"Explaining what we're doing as we're doing it (sounds simple but not all trainers do this!). Definitely making Photoshop less scary, and talking through everything, asking us how to do things and then going back over things. Everyone at Media Training is so so friendly and makes you feel welcome!"
"Approachable trainer and interactive / informal style. I felt able to ask lots of questions and got good support.
Great lunch & snacks too! Thank you."

I had no knowledge of InDesign and I feel more comfortable in using the programme now.
Thanks Matt!"
"Great time allocated to different aspects of Indesign. Also good to be able to get some quality tailored training on aspects such as creating tables and table of contents. Very enjoyable and understandable. Thank you!"
"Matt went into a lot of detail when explaining how to use Indesign. We covered many things during the two days. I learnt so many shortcuts which was very useful."
"Matt is friendly and efficient in giving examples and answering my questions. I have learned a lot of useful knowledge during the 2-day training course.
I cannot wait to use what I learned at work and I hope one day I will be back for the intermediate training courses."
"Matt is very knowledgeable and a very patient and approachable trainer. Really good examples and training materials used and the pace of the course was really good. Overall a brilliant course!"
"Everything. The intermediate Illustrator course taken by Matt was great, he was super knowledgable and always suggesting different ways to do things on top of the standard course work. He answered any questions that were thrown at him. Lunches and general atmosphere were also great."

The space is beautiful, the food was great, and I really appreciated the time set out for regular breaks. Thank you!"
