"Studying and training with Anna is 100% amazing!"

Anna makes learning versatile and easy without really thinking about it, she will hold discussions with you about the topic that draws the information out without you even realizing.

I felt at ease, supported and listened to every time I stepped into the classroom with Anna.

Outside of the classroom is no different, Anna will always do her best to answer messages, give you a call and talk things through putting your mind at ease.

I would not want to undertake training with anyone else, you will get the BEST from Anna! so go for it.

"I would encourage others to take the leap"

I completed my RQF Level 3 Diploma in Adult Care with Anna in 2021. I have worked with individuals with additional needs, elderly, and presently in Stroke Support. Studying for this diploma has been so valuable to my practice. Anna teaches with passion and enthusiasm for her subject matter. As a tutor she was informed and approachable and encouraged all students to express themselves and share their ideas and experiences.

Completing this qualification gave me a clear understanding of the health and social care sector, the level of responsibility involved, and the accountability needed in a care or support role. I am very proud of my qualification and of doing the work that I do, and I would encourage others to take the leap. It has opened doors and enabled me to progress further than I anticipated.

Absolutely amazing company to educate and support you in your qualifications, im currently with them and it is excellent! Never any stress or pressure. They are fun in their teaching and you will love it! Pick up that phone and give Anna a call !! Thank you Anna, Jan and Mary! Good luck everyone!!

"Anna's dedication to her students is truly remarkable and sets her apart."

I can't thank Anna Cowin enough for the incredible healthcare qualifications I obtained through her courses. Anna's dedication to her students is truly remarkable and sets her apart. Throughout the training, it was evident that she deeply cares about our success and understanding of the material.

The way Anna tailors her teaching style to suit various learning preferences is commendable. Whether you're a visual learner or someone who benefits from hands-on experiences, she ensures that the content is accessible and engaging. Her passion for healthcare and teaching is infectious, making each session something to look forward to.

What impressed me the most was Anna's commitment to going the extra mile. She made herself available for questions and clarifications, even outside of regular class hours. This level of support is rare and immensely valuable for anyone navigating complex healthcare topics.

The healthcare qualifications I gained have already opened up new opportunities for me, and I owe it all to Anna. If you're searching for a mentor who is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in your growth, look no further. Thank you, Anna, for your unwavering dedication and for being a true inspiration!

"Would highly recommend Anna, she’s a brilliant tutor and supports each of her students!"

I’m lucky to have the support from Anna whilst completing my Diploma.

Anna is dedicated to every one of her students and will often reply back outside of normal working hours and goes above and beyond to get the best of us. She used to joke about it during our lessons but goes to show how dedicated she is.

I couldn’t of gone this far without the support and time she has given me and for that I’m truly grateful!

"Anna made me feel so comfortable that I didn’t feel like she was observing me at all"

I cannot praise Anna enough for her help. She was always there at the end of the phone, day or night when I had troubles or questions. I was particularly anxious when Anna needed to come with me to my service users houses to do some observations, Anna made me feel so comfortable that I didn’t feel like she was observing me at all. She is very approachable, the help and support she gave me was nothing short of amazing. Her knowledge of the course and classes are very easy to understand.  All the information, resources and print outs that she had given me really helped as well. I really don’t think I could have completed my Level 3 if it wasn’t for Anna.

Many thanks

Thanks Anna!

"Anna is a fantastic tutor, I would highly recommend her to anyone."

I was very apprehensive about starting my diploma being a more mature student and new to adult healthcare, but after the first session I felt relaxed and motivated to learn.

Anna was always approachable, supportive and available when I needed help.

Without her help, encouragement and guidance I would not have passed my level 3 diploma and now be a SHCA

"An absolutely fantastic and supportive tutor"

Any future learners will not be disappointed with any of the training she has to offer. I have now been promoted since gaining this qualification

Definitely 5 stars from me

"I would completely recommend Anna Cowin Training for your next journey!"

Anna was always on the other end of the phone both day and night for advice and learning tips! Anna pushed when needed and guided me through the whole diploma with amazing professionalism. Anna is so passionate about promoting high standards of care that the work she puts in is 100% and more! I would completely recommend Anna Cowin Training for your next journey!

"Thank you for believing I had the capability, to finish way above my expectations."

I am writing to express my profound gratitude for the amazing impact you have had in my career in Health and Social Care. You saw the potential in me long before I could see it myself, and your unwavering belief was a catalyst for me to latch on to my goals and aspirations.

I would just like to say a big Thank you for all your support and dedication and for being there, at any given moment, making sure I understood, what it was I was studying, even when you were on holiday, you were there at any given moment.

If I had not had you as my teacher for level3 in Health and Social Care, I believe the opportunities presented to me after I had finished and received my certificate, would have been very different. You opened my eyes to what I had the potential to achieve and learn.

I will always remain grateful for your patience and guidance, every step of the way, whether I was struggling to understand the concept or simply needed that extra bit of encouragement, you were always there as a listening ear. Helpful advice and words of support.

Your approach to teaching made it fun and fostered my love of knowledge in Health and Social Care. Above all else, it is your kindness, support, and steadfast commitment to my success, that I will remember the most.

Thank you for believing I had the capability, to finish way above my expectations.

You are truly one of a kind.

With Deepest Appreciation

"Anna was amazing and made me feel comfortable from the start. "

I started the Diploma in Adult Care in October 2022. As a 70 year old student I wondered whether I could manage the requirements of the course especially as I was the oldest there. I did not need to worry at all, Anna was amazing and made me feel comfortable from the start. She was always positive throughout the course and full of encouragement. Her taught sessions were very engaging often including anecdotes or a light hearted story related to the topic which lightened the sometimes rather dry content.

Anna organised the session so that we could complete some of the assignments with other students. I enjoyed recording responses to the assignments in a small group as it enabled me to hear how others tackled some of the topics and was a useful way to achieve the credits. The course required written responses as well but Anna was there to give support and guidance to make sure I passed the modules.

I am really pleased that I undertook this Diploma and felt really proud of myself when, in August last year, I was presented with an official City and Guilds Certificate. Thank you Anna for believing in me.

"Anna made learning enjoyable"

Just completed my level 3 with Anna while working full time. What a brilliant experience! Being not the most academic person I was a-bit nervous about starting and how much the work load would be and what style the diploma would be delivered in. She recognizes that different people learn differently and accommodates to that. Anna made learning enjoyable and grew my passion for learning as she delivers it in such a personal way. She is so understanding, patient and accommodating. Anna is always there to reach out to by phone call or text any day of the week if you have any questions and assures every student of this constantly. Anna makes it known that she wants to help so I was never reluctant or hesitant to reach out to her if I needed help. Her passion for care and people is so evident. Could not recommend ACT enough !!

"The support that I received from Anna was outstanding"

My name is Sarah Hallworth and I have recently completed a diploma with Anna as my tutor. Firstly, I would like to say how thankful I am to have had Anna as my tutor for my diploma. Anna was able to guide and help me throughout my diploma. The support that I received from Anna was outstanding, Anna was almost always available to contact, if I ever had any questions to ask or needed any support. I found it very easy to have a working relationship with Anna, and a trusting relationship where I felt understood and never undervalued.

Whilst completing my diploma I fell pregnant and found it hard to keep up with my studying all the while, Anna was there to support me and my emotions throughout this time. She was able to give me the confidence to carry on with my diploma and helped me in every way she could after having my daughter in April. This put added pressure on me to study but Anna made sure I was okay and supported me throughout the rest of my diploma until it was completed.

When I first started my diploma, I went for weekly study sessions with Anna and found these to be very helpful. These would be group sessions that Anna would lead, and I found that Anna would address the classroom in a very welcoming and understanding manner of everybody’s individual needs. Anna teaching techniques are second to none making Anna a fantastic tutor, mentor and a trusting working professional. Anna takes much pride in her work, and for that, she should be very proud of herself as there have been many successful students under her tutor.

I was very apprehensive when I started my diploma as I wanted to further my career, but didn’t have the confidence. Once I started my diploma with Anna I got to have a good working relationship with her and I found Anna gave me the confidence I needed to believe in myself. Thanks to Anna and all of her hard work I can now progress in my career, giving me and my daughter, a new lease of life.

I cannot put into words how thankful I am to have met Anna and completed my diploma with her. Any student in the future will be very lucky to have Anna as their tutor. I wish all Anna’s students in the future, the best of luck in their adventures, and can say without a doubt they are in the best hands with Anna.

"Anna’s way of teaching has encouraged me to want to learn and progress"

I would highly recommend Anna as I tutor her patience knowledge and understanding of an individual need is exceptional, she is dedicated to all her students and their style of learning. Giving time and encouragement to all her students in and out of normal teaching hours, she was always available and never made me feel like any question was a stupid one. She guided me through any thing I was having trouble with, in a way that suited my style of learning. She is supportive and encouraged everyone to complete their diplomas being on hand to answer any query or questions.

As a more mature student with previous bad experience of school and higher education I was not looking forward to starting my diploma but needed it to progress to a higher level at work.

Within the first classroom session I felt relaxed and motivated to learn, Anna made the classroom courses something I looked forward to and not with dread. She was clear on what needed to be achieved and never made me feel rushed into completing units, everything was set out clearly and units explained and discussed within the classroom, and she was always made herself available before and after class if anything further was needed to be asked or explained.

Her motivation and knowledge of the care sector is clear to see, and she clearly wants her students to achieve high levels and keeps everyone engaged and motivated to learn making everything accessible and always engaging. Throughout the course I never felt nervous or embarrassed to ask questions and participate in classroom discussions as has been the case with other learning experiences.

The qualification I have recently gained has led to a promotion at work and better understanding of my role, being new to adult healthcare it has helped me progress positively and Anna’s way of teaching has encouraged me to want to learn and progress. I would not of finished my diploma in such a timely manner if it wasn’t for Anna’s unwavering support and encouragement.

"Anna my teacher was amazing at explaining things"

I had tried to do my level 3 in health and social care but due to health problems I had to stop it. Anna my teacher was amazing at explaining things or if I need extra help she was a star at helping me to do the work I would highly recommend her to anyone who is willing to do the courses. 5 star from me Anna x

"Anna made me feel comfortable and made anything seem possible"

I first started my RQF level 3 diploma in adult care in October with Anna, I felt very nervous and felt like I wasn’t able to do this, and Anna made me feel comfortable and made anything seem possible.

Anna is very approachable, and no question was too much bother no matter what the time was. Anna is very good to break down questions and make changes to the learning skills for you to understand it in a better way.

I found the classroom group work very beneficial as everyone is so different in the ways of learning, and I found we could all bounce off each other and listen to each other’s ideas and the ways they see things; Anna is very good to see the way people work and adapt the lesson to the way everyone learnt.

"I felt I also learned so much along the way!"

I completed my level 5 diploma with Anna and she was an excellent tutor! After doing my level 3 with a different company, I was dreading completing another level. However, I enjoyed the training as Anna made it interesting and I felt I also learned so much along the way! Anna made things simple by breaking down questions, being supportive throughout, encouraging me when I needed it and always being approachable. I would 100% choose Anna again if I needed to.

"I would recommend to anyone"

I completed my level 5 with Anna who goes above and beyond her line of work as a mentor and assessor, always available to provide assistance literally always answered the phone

(not 100% sure she actually sleeps)

Incredibly compassionate and understanding she is a great person with an amazing personality and I would recommend to anyone thinking of “perhaps” starting their qualifications to think no one other than Anna

Said it before and I’ll say it again

Thank you

"Anna is an amazing trainer"

Anna helped me whenever I needed support to complete my diploma - even answering phone calls in her own time. Anna is so supportive and patient… and worked around myself to accommodate my “manual” training also…. Brilliant tutor/trainer!!

Anna is The Tutor to go with, she is so

Supportive Day or Night.

Always at the end of the phone or email.

Never lets you slide or give up, pushing you all the way to the finish... I would not have got through my level 5 without her.

I can still hear the words "you just need to pad it out a little more"

and although at the time, I would be screaming at those emails. I am forever grateful

Anna invests so much of herself, to see you achieve.

Now pick up that phone

"I would highly recommend Anna for any training needs."

I completed my RQF level 5 with Anna. Her knowledge and passion for her work was evident every step of the way. Anna was very motivating and present when my enthusiasm wilted. I can’t thank her enough for supporting me throughout. I would highly recommend Anna for any training needs. She has the ability to inspire and motivate you through her words, actions and personal examples.

"Anna is an amazing assessor and a lovely person"

I would not of completed my RQF 5 without Anna, she was so patient with me, more so when I sent her some panicked animated voice notes at all times of the day

.. and she brought me back down and got my head back in the game.

Anna is an amazing assessor and a lovely person too.
