Wow! I have just completed an induction of After Effects with Simon as tutor. I highly recommend Simon, his skill and knowledge went beyond imagination and I will be sure to stay in touch and complete courses under his tuition in the near future. Thank you so much!
"If you're seeking the services of a creative, dynamic, personable trainer with a priceless depth of product and industry knowledge, and the ability to explain and deliver these to your own individual requirements, then you need look no further. Simon is a cracking trainer. He engenders patience, curiousity, wisdom and empathy, and has proven nothing less than engaging and kind during my time spent with him."
I can’t recommend Simon enough for his training in Adobe InDesign. The training was well structured, and Simon, took time to answer questions I had throughout the course – although things were so easy to follow, I didn’t have many. I have left the training, with a new confidence in the software, which I can’t wait to put into practice!
Given that the After Effects software training was all done through Zoom, it went remarkably well. Simon was a lovely guy, super approachable, and never made anyone feel silly for the questions asked. His passion for what he does also showed, it encouraged me to work harder which was nice. It showed he cared about it.
I've just finished two days Photoshop training with Simon and have certainly walked away feeling more confident handling the software and more inspired to create much-improved graphics and designs. Simon certainly has vast software knowledge, as well as a genuine understanding of brand and design. There is no challenge or question that he can't tackle!
