    Gavin catered for the group he had, as we were all attending for very different reasons, and he was very welcoming and honest. The course was very relevant to me as a teacher and I was very happy I was dobbed in to go :)

    It was great - everything I was expecting and then some. Very technical and informed session. Walked away with a great experience and a bunch of wisdom from an experienced comedian.
