Yasmina Oudahi – Teacher

Working with Lewis for the past couple of years has been an experience I will never forget. I have learnt so much from him as a mentor, director, teacher, coach and leader. I could honestly say that I wouldn’t be where I am today without his unwavering support for my Continued Professional Development and his passion for leadership. He has supported me throughout my Master’s degree, through the process of applying for a PGCE, as well as during some challenging periods in my professional life. I have always felt encouraged and uplifted by his positive outlook to CPD, work and education.

Thomas Hutchful – Teacher

Lewis regularly expends considerable effort and time on inviting students’ questions and listening to their perspectives on the subject. Furthermore, he welcomes each student’s point of view regardless of whether it is correct or incorrect. His teaching method encourages students to collaborate and get involved in his lesson. He listens to our concerns about our studies, assignments, and so on and tries to assist us as much as he can. Sometimes our problems are personal and have nothing to do with our course, yet he will listen and do his best to assist us. Also, his responses to our concerns are usually positive, giving the idea that we can be the greatest, even if they are not always what we expected. He always seemed genuinely concerned about his students’ development.
