“I did Nina’s interior design course and loved it!”

In 2011 Nina qualified as a Fetac Level 6 tutor in Training and Development (distinction).  Her workshops both in feng shui and interior design usually take place between September and May. Participants are encouraged to ask questions, and numbers are usually limited to smaller groups to ensure a high quality of delivery and the full participation of those present. Groups of six or more people can nominate their own venue if they prefer.

Veronica Crowe, Adult Education Officer, South Tipperary VEC:
"Quality service - tutor gives top quality delivery. All groups gave excellent feedback from her professional approach. They felt they learned a lot and could apply it to their homes. Nina is very unique in her delivery. She has an excellent approach and is easy going. The level of understanding of the subject and feedback from participant evaluations is excellent."
