Brilliant. Every minute was entertaining, fun and very educational. Extremely helpful and I have a deeper understanding of THRASS. 

Alan was dynamic and entertaining and the course was sensible and exciting. Thanks to Absa and THRASS for the generous sponsorship of the training and the resources. 

A lot of valuable learning and amazing teaching resources. The knowledge that I have gained is invaluable and I am sure that I’ll be a better teacher for it. THRASS is an exciting and fun programme. I can’t wait to teach it. 

Absolutely amazing. Such a stimulating and eye-opening course. Alan is so enthusiastic and passionate and very entertaining. 

Very interactive. Lovely visual aids and examples. Enjoyable and informative. I learnt a lot. 

An enjoyable course that was worth every minute. 

Amazing and Alan is a fantastic teacher. Really enjoyed the two days and the THRASS course has definitely taught me so much. 

Interesting as well as entertaining. Made me feel even happier about the profession I have chosen. I learnt so much and wish I’d been taught THRASS at school. 

Very well thought out and structured course. Many useful and practical ideas for classroom teaching. 

A learnt a lot. It is highly valuable as a future teacher. Alan was a great inspiration. He was funny and interesting to listen to for two days. 

Lovely course. Alan is very enthusiastic. Learnt a lot about sounds and how they have different jobs. It is great that we should teach children the truth about reading to avoid future confusion. 

Excellent! I really learnt a lot about teaching children how to write, spell and read, as well as how they learn. I love the whole system and look forward to teaching it. Alan was absolutely great! 

An amazing and worthwhile course. I am eager to get out there and teach the THRASS way! 

I loved the course. I learnt so much. 

Really enjoyable. It was very interesting to learn exactly what THRASS is all about. I learnt so much! 

Alan made the course fun. 

Very informative and interesting. Alan was very witty and easy-going. However, the duration of the course is too long and would be better in shorter sessions. 

Phenomenal. I really enjoyed it. I learnt so much - an amazing course. I think Alan is an amazing person who is absolutely brilliant and kind to share his dream and vision. THRASS will empower children to make literacy fun and active. I hope that, one day, I can be half the teacher that Alan is! 

Amazing and so interesting. I now want to implement it! It was good to see that what I did on the Kwena prac was right but now know what more I could have done. 

Excellent. I learned so much. Very useful and helpful. Wish I had done it before the Kwena prac. 

Very entertaining and enjoyable - not a moment of boredom. Very simple to follow. Excellent. 

I came in feeling quite sceptical because no-one had tried to explain it to me. Alan did a fantastic job of explaining what THRASS is and why we should be implementing it in our schools. The course was fun and interesting! I love the idea of THRASS and am looking forward to teaching it!

Excellent. The interactive teaching made two days go fairly quickly. Very thorough. Thanks for making a tricky concept make sense. I was initially sceptical but feel a lot happier teaching this.
