It was great, very clear and well explained towards all tasks that we had to do. It really opened my eyes towards my own Special Project as I am doing a similar thing towards inspiring and motivating younger kids. Thank you Vanessa!
Vanessa you were amazing, you made learning interesting and made time fly. Can you come back every week?

Throughout the course Vanessa held the group together, allowing all the young people to develop their individual skills, as well as learning how to work in a team, and work in different environments.
Vanessa is always very cheerful, supportive, and compassionate, whilst having the abilities to challenge any negative behaviour and keep the group focused.
I look forward to delivering another “Arts Awards Project” with Vanessa in Neale-Wade Community College

…In addition to completing the Arts Award, the young people had also been encouraged to reflect on their own anger management issues, and to consider their goals and values. This made the whole process doubly worthwhile.
