Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

I can only agee with everybody elses comments on here. I did the 4 day course and the 1 day natural stone and can`t believe the amount of knowledge I received in this time. The teaching is provided in a first class manner and the tips and tricks are amazing. I had done a few jobs for myself before but after doing this course realize how much better and quicker i could have done it. Even if you just wanted wanted to do diy, this course would be a worthwhile investment. But at the same time if your looking for a serious career change this course will provide all the knowledge you will need to go out and earn a living. I can`t recommend this course enough, if your considering a course this one won`t dissappoint. Just look at the amount of positive feedback on this forum.
A big thank you to darren, tracey and the rest of the team for making it an enjoyable week.

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

Hello - So, I finished the four day floor and wall tiling training at NETT last week. Fantastic. It's pitched at the right level for a whole range of people.... I was a complete beginner, but there were plenty of people that had done paid tiling jobs previously on the course. The direct no-fuss and fun teaching methods, worked well for novices like me, but for sure also illustrated to the more experienced how they've been doing it wrong, or how they can benefit from huge efficiency gains. It's a short course, and quick paced. However, if you simply listen hard, and pay attention, you'll have the skills and knowledge required to get stuck into tiling as a tradesman... AND businessman. Darren, Tracey and team are clearly enthused throughout the whole course, this is evident in the informal and thorough education they provide. I definitely recommend this to those starting out.

Their facilities in Southshields are great, and it's nice to see your own handy work on the wall at the end of the course. I certainly had the confidence after the 4 days to get stuck straight into this, and started my first tiling job on Sunday, immediately after the course.... I also got trade discounts on the adhesives and grout etc, as explained on the course. Very happy with the results of my tiling, and eager to get stuck into the next one, to improve and get some good experience.

Cheers
James

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

Hi, Just want to leave a quick message- This is a fantastic course that delivers exactly what it sets out to. I read a few feedbacks before going on the course so won't repeat all the praise that has already been heaped upon Darren, Tracey, Colin and Debra. I will say that Darren is one of the best teachers I have met and I will be back for the extra 3 day course. I have a few jobs lined up already and am very confident about completing them professionally. The best advice I could give about this course is LISTEN TO DARREN and also to ask any questions(except on Friday afternoon when everyone else wants to get away) no matter how daft they may seem - you will always get a constructive answer - I am living proof of that. All the best to Darren, Tracey Colin and Debra, I had a great week even though I was very ill.

North East Tiler Training.

Have been a bit tardy in posting this, but a big thank you to Darren, Tracey and all the staff for a great confidence and skill building course. Has given me the ability to sell my skills balanced against not biting off more than I can chew. Am not in my first flush of youth (56), but would highly recommend the course to anyone of a similar age and contemplating a total change of direction. Darren and his staff are very helpful and patient complemented by a friendy and no pressure atmosphere. Have given out a few quotes up to press (hopefully getting the jobs !) nonetheless its a good feeling being able to give potential customers good advice from the knowledge gained on the course.

would recomend this course to anyone as you go home with the confidence you need to go out doing the job
1 word of advice dont go in the pub for a few pints on the thursday night thinking youve done the course :lol:cos friday is just as full and you need a clear head

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

without sounding like a broken record this course is top notch
its fast paced an direct and a bit overwelming on the first day but dont let that put you off as by the 4th day it all starts to drop in place and you start to realise wot you thought had gone over your head has actualy gone in and its all good stuff you learn with all the crap taken out

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

This is a really good course.

It is a faced paced intensive course and you'll work hard but it's well worth it in the end.

I liked Darren's Straight talking no nonsense approach and the other instructors really know their onions. Tracy and the other office staff are really friendly and helpfull too.

I'd also recommend the extension course as it builds on skills learned on the beginners course. I'm well pleased with what I've achieved on this course.

Cheers,

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

I have just completed the 4 day tiling course with North East Tiling and also the one day natural stone course followed by the 3 day extension course all of which I would thoroughly recommend

Darren and his staff were very helpful throughout the courses, and the knowledge I gained was second to none. The girls in the office are so friendly and can't do enough to help you, which is much appreciated.:hurray:

I had no prior experience of tiling, but since the courses I am confident I can start up my own tiling business. The skills and knowledge Darren teaches throughout all three courses are invaluable.

The 3 day intensive course was brilliant because you learn the skills to overcome the day-to-day challenges on tiling jobs and also to be able to design and create your own work of arts.

I cannot recomend this courses highly enough, particuarly the 3 day intensive course which is like the icing on the top!!

Many thanks
from Alex in Germany/North Shields

Re: North East Tiling Training - Tyne and Wear

I have to say there was quite a volume of information to take in and the end of the first day I was pretty drained however once you go onto the practical stuff it all falls into place and Darren starts to make much more sense and is actually a good bloke and teaches you in a relaxed manner and will educate you far more than you thought possible just go on the course as a sponge and absorb all he has to teach you and you cant go far wrong.
