L T reviewed: Beginners DIY and Home Maintenance day course

"This was a good course to get to grips with the basics of DIY. I came away feeling more confident to tackle projects that have been needing attention. David is very enthusiastic and has a great way of delivering knowledge and teaching DIY skills. It would have been beneficial to have more practice time but I appreciate there was alot of ground to cover in one day. Thank you. "

Great British Woodshop responded:

"Hi LT Many thanks for the lovely review, and you're right, we do pack in a lot of different DIY skills in the day class to give you as much information and practical hands-on as possible in one day. We think it's the best use of your time and money to send you home empowered with knowledge and confidence, and leave the practice for you to do at home in your own time. As we always say, "Don't let learning lead to knowledge, let learning lead to action". Thanks for joining us on the day and look forward to saving hundreds of pounds doing those simple jobs yourself."

John Bentley reviewed: Router Day Class

"Dave ,the tutor, had the patience of a saint, dealing with our course. All hobbyist and not regular users of the router. Simple explanations and hands on experience, in the safe environment supported by David’s presence. Would highly recommended this course to anyone who wants to learn how to use this very useful tool."
