HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Comments by the staff of Sowe Valley Primary:

"A good inspiration to make lessons more visual and relevant to the children's learning. I wish I knew these techniques when I sat my exams. Will ensure that I will remind myself of the techniques and to use them as much as possible."

"On a personal level I can use this to help me remember an ever increasing number of responsibilities at home or work. For pupil guidance – the experience has allowed me to make connections with embryo ideas and topped up my 'toybox'. Many thanks for the motivation."

"I really didn't think my brain could do so much! Some great techniques I can't wait to try. Many thanks."

"It was a truly memorable day, not just for the memorizing itself, but for the 'different' ways of learning you showed us. It was great fun and I surprised myself at how it WAS possible to remember those memory hooks, etc. Thank you!"

"It was a really worthwhile day. I have been given so many ideas which I am buzzing to implement in my class. Thank you. A day well spent."

"A very enjoyable day's course. Lots of good memory-developing ideas presented in various interactive ways."

"Thanks for an interesting day. It was nice to take away ideas rather than more work to be done. Will enjoy putting the things we learnt into practice!"
