FEEDBACK

• Rapid and clear tutor feedback. Willing to respond to specific queries – unlike other similar tutors I have experienced
• Quick response to exercise submissions.
• Generally a good course. It would have been good if a mock exam was included – I contacted the training centre and this was arranged. Also the weather charts in the exam were poor quality and very hard to read, the scanned image was v blurry.

Commodore Yachting – In response to this comment the weather charts have been updated and are now much easier to read.

• Very happy with course
• Easy to follow. The animations were very helpful in building understanding.
• Almost instant e-mail feedback. Always available at the end of the phone if I rang to ask questions.
• The combination of online “own pace” learning combined with easy access to tutorial support when needed makes the course. ideal for anyone that cannot commit to regular college nights.
