CRAKEHALL C. OF E. SCHOOL
Dear Cliff
A short note to say many thanks from all of us at Crakehall Primary School
for your presentation to the cluster on Accelerated Learning.
Having attended
one of Alistair Smith's courses some time ago, it was extremely valuable to
me to
have the ideas and theories revisited in such a lively
and concise way. For the rest of my staff (who I've
been meaning to send on the course for some time)
it was affirmation of what I've been telling them
since I returned - that the techniques have a vital
part to play in our everyday teaching of the children.
All
of us enjoyed your very professional performance. It was slick, fresh and
funny!
Congratulations.
All the best,
Mark Allison

Dear Cliff
On behalf of the Bedale Cluster I would like t thank you for the excellent
training day re Accelerated Learning and mind Mapping.
All the feedback has
been very positive and I know that many people are going to take the ideas
back
into school. Teachers, non-teachers and children
need to be inspired these days and this will certainly
help everyone.
Learning through different styles is
a must for all children to ensure they can have an exciting
curriculum and a stimulating learning environment.
Teachers
also need to be energised and after your training day
on Monday I am sure people left feeling
there is more to life than an hour of literacy every
day
Once again many thanks.

LEEMING RAF CP SCHOOL
Dear Cliff
Just a quick line to say a big thank you for the training course you ran
for us.
I was personally enthused by the ideas shared and your own 'evangelism'
about your subject.
My staff have already utilised several of your strategies. There are motivational
messages on display and 'brain break' activities much in evidence. I venture
to say this is the most positive response from some people for a while.
Your delivery was humourous, non-threatening and inspirational.
Thank you.
Kind regards
Mrs. L. A. Heaton

SNAPE COMMUNITY PRIMARY SCHOOL
Having shied away from anything with so daunting
a title as Accelerated Learning, we found the morning
most informative and enlightening. You managed to
pitch it to exactly the right level for your very
mixed audience and you also made it fun, which is
no mean achievement!

CYPRESS JUNIOR SCHOOL
I would like to say that we found Cliff's training
very inspiring. It has generated much discussion
and sharing of ideas, and many of the ideas that
he gave us are now being used around the school.
We would be grateful if you would convey to Cliff
how much we enjoyed the day, and how useful we have
found it.

everyone in the training would agree with this.
It created a renewed enthusiasm in school.
