"I would like to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this intensive course. It was clear from the start that Alison has extensive knowledge in the field and is very passionate about what she does. It was this that inspired me and practically had me on the edge of my seat, even after the first three hours. Alison was very helpful when it came to specific questions that students had. I learnt so much that has aided my development as I am in the process of launching my online fashion boutique. It is now three days since I completed the course and I don't think that I have stopped talking about it or referring back to my notes. I spoke to a friend the day after I had finished and she booked the February course as soon as we came off the phone. I would 100% recommend this course, you will not be disappointed and I would most definitely do another course with Alison if she did any!" - Tamikah, UK
