They are so well done and the cooking courses are just amazing - They are so passionate about what they are doing and keep your attention till the end. I cant wait to start the course on breathing next. This is worth every cent”

“I am enjoying the class. It is great information and outstanding production value. The class with Harlen Cobin is pack full of his experience and presented in a laid back and informative manner.
I was, however, disappointed in the number of classes available at this time. I was tempted to ask for a refund but I'm enjoying this class too much. I am looking forward to BBC adding more classes.”
“SO interesting watching/finding out about other's creative processes, getting insight and guidance from people at the top of their game. will work my way through all content available just out of interest.”
“The concept of the Maestro series came as a lovely antidote to post Christmas blues. I chose to follow the Carol Anne Duffy Poetry Course and was pleasantly surprised, and surprised myself in taking notes as encouraged to do and writing short verses at each injuncture, about early memories, people, accents, fruit, the senses and so on. It felt productive and each lesson seemed to induce a sharpening of poetic perception and formulation. Where I said that I was pleasantly surprised I should not have been because the trailer was the spur to taking this course and it turned out just as expected. The mixture between brevity and DIY poetry writing and feeling that one was on a proper poetry course was just right. There was a planned evolution, so lesson planning was evident, backed up by 87 pages of notes and evocative set props, appropriately a constant pile of books on the table beside the oppulent chair upon which Miss Teacher sat arranged in a room with a distinct classy Christmasy feel. It was like a cross between auntie (with Auntie Beeb in the background) and a soft version of Miss Brodie in her Prime. The personal anecdotes brought the whole delivery alive with an easy introduction of actual poets from Seamus Heaney, W. B. Yates to a plethora of excellent female poets, with actual examples of their poetry, demonstrating each particular lesson point, about memory, time, emotion, form and what poetry can say that prose cannot. There is much more that one can say, yet suffice it to say a big thank you to the BBC and especially Carol Anne Duffy, together with her final guest bringing the 'show'/ lesson/ mini lecture series to a close.”
“I loved James Nestor's course, The Power of Your Breath. I have been doing breathwork for about 10 years and have studied with several teachers and this course is THE best I have yet to experience. I am still learning and growing and enjoy each breath. Take this course and see the difference it will make in your life.”
“Excellent course! Richard Greene is a great public speaker and teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed the content of the course; it was very comprehensive and well-structured. This course completely changed the idea I had about public speaking; the emphasis on authenticity really resonated with me. It was highly transformative.”
“I bought the Mark Ronson course and it couldnt be better for top teacher,real experienced player,price,quality of service,contains life worthed.
I definitly suggested to my best friends”
“An engaging speaker who, instead of promising us that the path to happiness and fulfillment is to constantly push ourselves into more and more activities and effort, encourages us to do less, but to ensure that what really matters to us is at the core of how we spend our lives.”
