I think doing your course was the best decision I ever made!
- Emma Madeley, Notts
Robert’s patient teaching style and ongoing supplementary support would be difficult to equal. Joining the course is one of the best decisions I’ve made and my only disappointment is that my time has now come to an end. - Shayne Rice, Nottingham
I have never known a more helpful, accommodating, dedicated tutor ever. This course has not just set me up for a whole new business change, it has changed my life completely and help me discover myself too! I cannot thank you enough Robert! - Mandy Jackson, Derby
From the teaching to the syllabus and course material, I found the course thorough, professional and highly enjoyable. The best course I've ever taken! - Helen Falconer, Nottingham
This course was a revelation, I learned a huge amount across a wide range of concepts. Robert McKinnon really practices what he preaches through his small group practical sessions with open discussion gently led by him. An excellent tutor with great results! A great foundation for a future in Mind Coaching and Clinical Hypnotherapy - Tony Dawes, Newark
​
I fully recommend this course which I personally found very informative, stimulating & professionally administered. The handouts & backup service are first class - Amanda Jones, Melton Mowbray
Robert provides that little extra which makes this course better than norm. He is flexible, and goes out of his way to accommodate students who miss sessions. So if you want a tutor prepared to go that extra yard – you’ve found one - Paul Harrison, Newark
From the first weekend when we were shown how to lead someone into hypnosis, this course has been an amazing journey of discovery, self-discovery and confidence-building in that I have been trained to do things I dreamt of being able to do. Robert – thank you - Shan Marshall, Nottingham
An extremely informative, well structured and inspiring course - James Walker, Nottingham
