I would like to thank Josie W for everything she has done for me while doing my course, she has gone above and beyond, making sure I understand everything and going through things that I’m not so sure about, for taking her time with me so I didn’t feel the stress of working and doing my course as well as day to day living, that I could fit everything in. I don’t think I could have do it without her. She has been a godsend. I can’t thank her enough

From signing up with Mohammed to finishing with Josie my level 4 tutor has been great. Any issues were ironed out straight away with Paragon skills and I would definitely study with them again. Josie has been amazing. Patient, supportive and flexible at all times. Couldn't recommend more.

Dear Paragon Skills, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern and frustration regarding the apparent mismanagement of the apprenticeship course in which I am currently enrolled. The lack of organization and support has significantly impacted my Job role experience, and I feel compelled to address these issues as they are now affecting my mental health. Throughout the duration of the enrolment of the course, there have been numerous instances of disorganization, inconsistency in communication, and inadequate support for apprentices like me. These issues have made it exceedingly difficult to focus on learning and have caused unnecessary stress and anxiety. First, I was enrolled, I was being asked for papers , which I submitted straight away, after completing all the formalities , A lady Called Loise webb contacted me and asked for the RTW code, Which I submitted. I have attended the first induction class , completed my English and math course which took hours and hours. And immediately after finishing the course I was being told that, as my visa is going to expire before the course ended, I am not eligible to continue my course. I accepted that politely. but tried to convince then by telling certainly, I will extend my visa before it expires, I was confirmed that I won’t be able to enrol on the course. After few days I was being contacted again and told , that I can continue my course there is no more barriers. I started again , did 2 sessions with my tutor ( Nicky), explained her what happened with me. My tutor told me to continue and requested me for some more paper , Marriage certificate to be more exact. I handed her over. Then after few days I was being told to give the RTW again which I provided previously numerous times. I submitted the RTW again , I was booked for my next class as well and after 2 days I was being told to submit my proof of completing my English and math course to Loise Webb. Today I received an email from Nicky stating, I am not allowed to continue the course. I really felt heartbroken and rationally abused.

My Tutor Naomi was great, understood how I learned best and tailored the way I learned so it was easier for me to do, because of this I was able to get my certificate with a high grade.

I have had 25 years experience with dealing with companies who deliver qualifications both as a learner and deputy manager and Paragon has stood out . I am currently doing a Level 5 and was addressed with issues while trying to log onto my portal. I emailed my assessor Mark Forsyth on the morning of 8/4/24 and he responded and arranged a meeting straight away to help me and i didn't feel rushed and he was able to send me work until the issue was resolved . Mark kept in contact for the rest of the day until the issue was resolved

I would like to thank all involved who have helped along the way. I am now feeling very confident moving forward in my career.

I have just completed and passed the Business Admin L3 with distinction, I’m so proud of this achievement! 🎉 My tutor Leah was the driving force when I didn’t think I would ever make it to the end point and I’m so grateful for the encouragement, support and believing in me. Leah also put me forwards for learner of the month and couldn’t believe it when I won 🙌 Thanks for everything Leah ☺️

I have just completed Level 3 in Business Administration through Paragon Skills. My tutor was Debbie. Debbie is very clear and concise. Doesn’t waste your time explaining meaningless background information and always lectures with the intent to help you understand the task. She is a calm and thoughtful tutor who really cares about you. Thank you so much once again!

I had the pleasure of working under Debbie Arnell’s supervision and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. Debbie embodies professionalism, friendliness, and a wealth of knowledge in her field. Her approachable demeanour made it easy to seek guidance and support whenever needed. Debbie's expertise was instrumental in helping me achieve distinctions across the board. She provided valuable insights, guidance, and resources that significantly contributed to my success. Her willingness to go above and beyond to ensure my understanding and progress did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend Debbie Arnell as a Tutor. Her professionalism, friendly nature, and invaluable support make her an asset to any team or organisation. I will miss our meetings.
