I had a perfect experience completing my tiling MVQ. The process allowed me to fully develop my skills and confidence, and I’m extremely proud of the standard of work I achieved. I consistently met all requirements, maintained high attention to detail, and followed best practices throughout. This MVQ has been a valuable and rewarding experience that has strengthened my knowledge, professionalism, and passion for tiling. My tiling teacher has been outstanding throughout my MVQ. They are knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to offer clear guidance and support. Their teaching style made complex techniques easy to understand, and they consistently encouraged high standards of workmanship. Thanks to their support and feedback, my confidence and skills in tiling have improved greatly. I’m very grateful for their dedication and mentorship.

Just completed the 9 day intense course and where do I start, lets start with Stu, what a guy, one of the nicest blokes you'll ever meet in your life, such a great teacher, vast amounts of knowledge and experience, funny and just a pleasure to have met him. The course was amazing, we had a fantastic group and we all got on and made some new friends. The course itself was packed full of information and practical exercises to get you up to a standard to start your own tiling business when you leave. It has given me a new lease of life and the confidence to tackle any job I manage to get in the near future. A massive thank you to Stu, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and made some new friends along the way.

4 Day Fast Track Tiling Course

This is an absolutely fantastic course, Stu is a brilliant tutor who puts you at ease as soon as you arrive on day 1.
There is a lot to cover over the 4 days with just the right mix of theory and practical work.
I've really enjoyed the course and will take away an enormous amount of knowledge and skills to add to my existing job. Thank you!

Absolute great course would advise to people second guessing it. stu great tutor not only a great tutor a nice funny bloke aswell he doesn’t miss any piece of information and helped guide me through the course. He tells you about every problems he’s encountered so we can avoid it to help us on our journey as a tiler and gives you techniques to solve every problem I have faced during the course he didn’t miss one piece of information.

Nine Day course - Brilliant..!

I just completed the nine day professional tiling course and I’m extremely pleased…
As a teacher of many years I can honestly say that Stu has the perfect mix of humour and interpersonal skills needed to inspire confidence and support those that are struggling…
I learned a great deal and feel well prepared to change my profession over the next few months; thanks to Stu and The Tiling Academy…

Just finished the 9 day course

Just finished the 9 day course, one word to someup the course... fantastic. The moment I walked in I got a warm welcome from stu and Cheryl, they put me at ease. Then it was down to business from the word go. We had a little introduction to the group then it was straight onto the tiling and learning all aspects of tiling from classroom to practical. This course has given me all tha attributes to became a top tiler. I didn't think I would get much from 9 days but wow was I wrong. Stu the trainer is unbelievable at teaching, he showed me everything from how to use a grinder in the correct way, how to cut round objects, self level floors and all differnt ways to lay tiles. He let's you make ur mistakes but tells you to keep going because he knows you will get it after afew go's. I would highly recommend and I would almost garrentee you will know how to tile when you have completed it. Thanks Dominic

Absolutely fantastic course

Absolutely fantastic course, I thoroughly enjoyed my 4 days, learnt loads and had loads of fun whilst doing it. Stu is so knowledgable and also amusing at the same time which made theory parts not boring. The course has left me feeling confident that I can continue on my own path but also with the knowledge that Stu is literally on the other end of the phone if I need any support :-)
