I recently completed a lead adult care worker level 3 diploma with paragon, and I genuinely wouldn't have been able to get through it, let alone get the distinction I received without the help of the amazing tutors. Without trying to sound like an oscars acceptance speech, I wouldn't have been able to do it without Heather Evans, Kate Underwood and workshop leader Luke Radford. I'm sure there's plenty of others who helped along the way but I've rabbited on for a bit too long now.

I was consistently encouraged and supported by my tutor Joanne Heritage to achieve a L3 Health & Social care double distinction. My tutor was nothing but brilliant, as were my secondary tutors/workshop leaders Luke Radford and Heather Evans. They always answered any questions I had and nothing was too much trouble.

Paragon has been amazing for helping me achieve my Level 4 Lead Adult Practitioner apprenticeship. Initially i had a lovely mentor but she was unwell and sadly this left me behind in my course. Aaron Jones then took over as my tutor, and he is amazing! Aaron is very good at making the course simplified and easy to understand and he always looks into personalisation. He ensures that he tailors the way information is delivered and the systems at Paragon to help us achieve the best end result. He is always sure to be aware of our learning preferences and delivers what works best for us, the learners. Very greatful for his knowledge and experience and he managed to get me from being a learner who was very far behind to being back on track in no time. Greatful! :)

Without the help from Emma I wouldn't have achieved my Level 3 Business and Admin qualification with distinction. Emma was always on hand if I ever needed any help and would always schedule meetings with me if I asked. Thanks for all your help Emma!

Debbie was absolutely amazing over the course of my business administration apprenticeship course. I was completely new to the industry having worked in tech before she gave great instruction and fantastic feedback on my coursework. She was super understanding with deadlines and had great availability for any questions I had or help I needed.

I would like to say a HUGE thank you to Debbie for all the support, knowledge and guidance she has given me over the past 12 months to help me in completing my Level 3 Diploma in Business Administration. When I first started in this apprenticeship, I had come from a completely different career, which was childcare, so I felt very out of my depth in many different ways. Debbie instantly helped me to feel at ease and guided me through every step of the way. I have grown with not only the knowledge I have gained through doing the apprenticeship, but my confidence has hugely increased and this has had a massive benefit within my day to day role. Without Debbie's expertise and knowledge, things could have been a lot different. THANKS DEBBIE :)

I spent just over a year on the Level 3 Business Systems Apprenticeship with heather, and she made every part of it much easier. At every challenging point Heather was always there to provide support and feedback and was always available to do so. I really do appreciate everything that Heather was able to do for me, I would 100% recommend this apprenticeship and anyone who gets Heather will excel.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Helen Banks, my tutor at Paragon Skills, for her incredible support and guidance throughout my NVQ Level 5 in Leadership and Management in Adult Care. Thanks to her dedication and encouragement, I was able to achieve a distinction—a goal that felt daunting at times. Helen consistently went above and beyond to ensure my success. Her regular meetings provided me with clarity and direction, and she was always there to motivate me when I felt overwhelmed. In the weeks leading up to my End Point Assessment, Helen offered extra support and tailored her guidance to help me feel prepared and confident. Her belief in my abilities gave me the push I needed to overcome challenges and excel in my studies. Thank you, Helen, for your unwavering support, encouragement, and expertise. You’ve played a key role in helping me reach this important milestone in my career, and I am incredibly grateful!

I started my NVQ health and social care level 4 in November of 2022, I had a really rocky start with no motivation to complete my work I had gone through 2 tutors with them leaving and finally got a tutor who changed my experience. Helen Banks became my tutor just a few months before I completed my level 4 and I can say I would never have been able to complete it without her she gave me the confidence and motivation to get my course finished and I ended up completing with a distinction. I am so grateful for the support she gave me!

Having spent nearly 18 months on this course and changing providers near the start, it has been a challenging journey for sure. However, my trainer Jordan has been superb in guiding and supporting me all the way through, resulting in me gaining a distinction for the level 3 team leader qualification. I would highly recommend Paragon and Jordan for anyone who is thinking of taking up an apprenticeship. Thank you.

I had an amazing trainer and mentor; Tina was extremely helpful, always reassuring and guiding me through the process. She was so patient and understanding with me. I just finished my level 3 Lead Adult Care Worker with a distinction. I really appreciate all she did for me. I would 100% recommend Paragon Skills to anyone who is interested.
