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!

*****

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.

Such a great course and Nicki delivered it brilliantly. I have worked in Learning and development for over 13 years and I know it can be difficult for some trainers to be trained by others but I very much enjoyed the experience. I am very happy to be about to communicate better with my nephew and support my family in learning Makaton and you never know maybe work my way to being a tutor too someday.

Excellent tutor, excellent workshop!

I would like to say Nicola was a brilliant tutor and I learned so much today. I can't wait to start using Makaton with children in school.

Nicola is a fantastic tutor! I started on my Makaton journey this year and completed my Level 1 in March, Level 2 in April, and I have just completed my Level 3. Nicola has delivered the training with a 'You can' positive attitude. My confidence in Makaton has grown because of Nicola's style of tutoring. I'm very excited to book onto Level 4 and Babies and families training so I can share my knowledge.

I'm a teacher of 30 years with next to no experience of Makaton and I really enjoyed Nicki's Level 1 training, she was so encouraging. I was worried about devoting the best part of a Saturday to it but the pace of the course was great...plenty of short breaks, and the content was so engaging and fun to do. I'm looking forward to putting some Makaton to use in my setting.

Having had no previous experience using Makaton, I found this workshop to be both informative and highly enjoyable. Thanks to Nicki's encouraging support throughout the workshop, my confidence grew across the duration of the course and the knowledge she was able to pass on left me with a very solid foundation and understanding of Makaton at Level 1. I hope to progress onto the following levels with Nicki and look forward to such.

Nicki was absolutely brilliant in delivering the training. I did levels 2, 3 & 4 with her. I felt at ease and confident because of her. The atmosphere every time was filled with happiness and fun. I learnt a lot and I have applied Makaton in the setting I work in. I have seen such an improvement in the children's behaviour because they have another 'voice' to express themselves. I highly recommend Nicki.
