Course participant reviews for Nottingham Trent University

Loved it!!! I went on the course with a friend - both thinking we would be out of our depth but we weren't. The class was really accessible for all abilities. We learnt a lot about drawing and mark making and produced work that was sometimes half decent, sometimes awful and sometimes suprisingly ok in a very supportive and encouraging atmospher...

I started the course feeling pretty anxious and nervous as I had not been on a course like this for many years. However I have to say that Chris our tutor was excellent. He was very supportive as well as being active in the sessions. I loved how we learned about lots of techniques and worked by ourselves and with others. The life drawing and the...

I went with a friend not knowing what to expect. The day was well introduced and the tasks and techniques used by the tutor got everyone writing. People were on the course for different reasons but all got something from the day. I now know that I have a lot to say and think about. We are all full of so many stories and I really appreciate...

Had a wonderful day spent learning about free writing. Thanks to the very engaging tutor I feel have rediscovered a real interest and passion for writing.

I went into this course slightly nervous having not drawn properly since school …. 34 years ago. I’ve come out of the course with confidence, a love of drawing again and a feeling of it does not matter what you do or how it looks at the end of the day it is fun, relaxing, thought provoking and interesting. Chris [can’t remember his surname] im...

This course gave me the basic understanding (and a lot more!) to help me move forward. I really enjoyed it. It was well paced and ideal with a small class – I think this is really important, so that questions can be asked and answered.

I enjoyed the course and look forward to putting into practice what I learnt. Many thanks to Geoff for a brilliant three days.

All of the content was most informative. A valuable learning experience.

Geoff was very good at adapting the course to meet our needs, especially with regards to the huge number of questions asked by the group. And it was good to receive paper handouts as well and digital copies.

I strongly recommend the course to other people.

Many thanks to Simone and her thoroughness and dedication - a brilliant course.

Simone was a brilliant and very patient tutor.

This course was to help me decide whether or not I was going to follow animation at uni. I fell in love with the subject, and will pursue it at NTU.

A big thanks to Simone. The course was a brilliant blend of theory, practice and technique. Complicated software was broken down with panache!

Great tutor, great variety of programmes covered – a really nice introduction to Adobe Creative Suite.

Great course, feel like I've learnt so much. Would definitely recommend it.

I really liked the content of the course - we studied a range of animation principles. The quality of the finished work is good enough to put on my future uni applications. It’s been amazing, thank you so much!

I enjoyed being able to use professional hardware and software, and the chance to bond with others on the course.

Had a great time - really enjoyed it.

It was amazing

The facilities are amazing! I can’t believe the resources available.

Brilliant course. A great introduction and knowledgeable tutor.

I had a fantastic week, only problem is that it couldn't last longer!

Really, really enjoyed this course, it’s been one of the best weeks I’ve had. Thank you to the tutors.

The tutors were excellent, and always made sure everyone was happy and knew what to do. We were free to try things and got useful feedback.
