Testimonials
I have always found Marian's teaching and feedback focussed and extremely helpful. She is one of the best teachers I know. The teaching on each course was always layered so that we learned and experienced everything in tandem, with plenty of relevant examples from her experience. Being encouraged to have specific learning goals and getting focussed feedback afterwards was very helpful. Supported self-feedback was always encouraged and is a useful skill to learn. The quality of feedback was always excellent as Marian always pays exquisite attention and knows exactly where a landscape unravelled or a more helpful direction could have been chosen. This clarity enhanced my learning journey and has given me a voice in my ear when I find myself in similar situations now.

Marian is an excellent trainer and her hospitality is second to none!
Jo Wilson, NLP Trainer
Marian and I worked together over a number of weeks, and I addressed a couple of significant issues that I had been challenged by for a number of years. I had worked with a therapist on these too, and while that had helped a great deal, the work with Marian shifted my thinking and behaviour significantly. Marian, and her work, is gentle and incredibly powerful. She is a pleasure to work with and I rate her and Clean Language highly.
