When you're on one of our courses, you're trying things out along with the tutor, you're watching him write programs that include data that you provide in class, and you're interacting with questions and answers all along. I call it active learning and it's very VERY effective.
"It was very interesting to see how long my attention was permanently kept up" wrote a delegate on last week's Perl course in a follow up email to me over the weekend.
With about half a dozen delegates on a course (we won't take more than 7 on a public course), we can ensure an active and effective learning experience for every attendee - sitting in the back and getting lost is NOT an option at Well House Consultants. That's probably why everyone tells their friends about us and we're looking busy for months ahead.
"thanks for the excellent teaching of a really good course" concluded my email from my Perl delegate.
