The course was excellent. The material was well presented and easy to understand. The tutors were very professional and thorough. Both Peter and Brenda gave extensive replies which must have taken a lot of time and certainly commitment. I found the course useful for what I want to do.

I very much enjoyed the course and it gave me a new interest. Peter and Brenda really made the course worthwhile for me. Their expert feedback and guidance was invaluable and without it the course would not have achieved much for me.

I would like to extend my thanks to you both, the course has taught me that researching the family history is one thing, writing it is another. I have written the first six pages of my family history.

Thanks to Brenda and yourself for all the suggestions and help during the course, best U3A course I have been on.

Good materials. Excellent feedback and encouragement.

It was interesting to be part of a group with participants from the other side of the world. I think I would have liked to have had more interaction with them but that was probably my fault for not responding to their materials enough. Other members of my local U3A are interested in my experiences.

Very inspirational and interesting background reading material to keep me well occupied for quite some time! I enjoyed seeing what other students were choosing to write about and their formats- especially impressed that someone went into verse!

I really enjoyed the course. Both Course Leaders were available for advice and guidance - without their encouragement I probably would have put off writing my family history forever. I can’t thank them and the course enough. This course had me totally involved - not wanting to leave the computer to get on with daily chores! I have learnt so much.

There is something that I hear constantly. 'Oh, I wish that I had asked my mother/father while they were alive..........' And I often find people who say to me that they would very much like to do what I am doing but............and who might be encouraged to actually do it, by doing a course through the U3A.

This is not a three year degree. It therefore has limitations on what it wants to achieve. And again, from that point of view, I think it has been successful.

You have a number of people who have gone into it with great gusto and have benefited much from the course.

I found the help from the tutor very helpful and inspired me to go ahead with this project.
