Nicki is an amazing tutor. The day literally flies by and is so enjoyable. A mix of teaching styles helps you learn and implement new signs and embed new learning. Nicki is approachable and is always willing to teach signs which might not be in the level. Thank you so much for being a huge part of my Makaton journey and being such a wonderful teacher.

I would really recommend completing the Makaton training, I've completed my Level 1 workshop and I'm already planning on signing up for my level 2! The tutor is patient, supportive and made the training engaging and fun to learn. The short breaks throughout the day really help make the day go faster and it's much easier to concentrate and remember the signs. I'm looking forward to putting what I've learnt to good use in my role. Thank you so much!

The training was amazing, Nicola was so patient and supportive, making the training fun and engaging! Having the short breaks strategically placed throughout the day made the day go quick and felt like it was easier to concentrate and remember the signs. Even in one day, I feel like I've learned so many basic signs, l really recommend Nicola as a tutor and I'm looking forward to signing up to the Level 2 workshop! Thanks!
