"Thank you for making me feel like a professional. Thank you for making me feel valued. Thank you for giving me the time to reflect, and to remind me why I teach. Why I came into this profession in the first place, why I love my job, why I was ambitious as an NAT and why I want to teach the musicians of the future. I feel rejuvenated, refreshed and inspired. I feel that if we have things to whinge about, then that is okay, but the PTI course has made me prepared to say, well that’s OK, but what are we going to do about it. Thank you for reigniting my passion to teach music. "

"The [Subject Enrichment Residential] has allowed me to rediscover my love of my subject and my own love of learning. It is through this new found passion for the subject that I will be my refocusing on teaching it to the best of my ability. The course has reminded me of the power and the importance of English to change lives of the pupils, support them in times of trouble and guide them towards the successes they deserve. "
