I found the pdf files difficult to follow and therefore ordered the paper files. I think the course would benefit from the materials being more interactive. For example, you watch a mentoring/coaching interaction video rather than read a transcript. This also helps to consider non-verbal communication and use of self commonly discussed in the modules.

The recommended extra reading was incredibly useful ,even more practical than the course notes themselves .The course content was set up great though and the frequent evaluative questions and mini-courseworks were good for feedback and tracking progress and understanding

I really enjoyed undertaking the course and it certainly provided a great opportunity to reflect and develop my practice. The only thing I would say, which is in respect to my preferred way of learning, is that I would have liked the opportunity to have attended a workshop or been able to take part in online discussions on some of the areas, as I find discussion helps me with processing information. Whereas my learning was done exclusively by myself.

I was pleased to find an online course that I could complete as a distance learner. The course helped me to consider coaching from different angles as well as to deepen my understanding of my own coaching style. Course contents were easy to follow but I found the suggested reading and websites outdated. Many of the given weblinks do not work. The core text has a newer edition than the one suggested. Even course notes are dated as 2010 or 2012 and could do with a refresh - small things like updating submission instructions to allow for email, for example, would help make the notes more relevant.

I really appreciate the support and guidance Dr Marie Murphy has given me during my studies. I really appreciated her patience and kindness since English is not my first language. She was always there to help me with assignments and gave clear and thoughtful feedback, which made the learning process so much easier and more enjoyable. Her quick responses and support kept me focused and feeling confident during the course. I’m super grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a friendly and supportive tutor!

The course material is presented in a great and easy to understand way. The colourful pictures and diagrams enhance the course material. The content of the material was interessting and keeps one engaged without it being overwhelming, it is a great mix. It is great to have a tutor assigned to a student where one can get help and support and ask questions. I appreciated my tutor`s feedback on my assignments. And I particularly appreciated the clarifications regarding the TMA and the word count for each different section, and help to clarify the referencing system.

The course provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Through its structured materials, I was able to develop essential CBT skills that are crucial for effective practice in the field of mental health support. The knowledge I got has significantly enhanced my confidence as a mental health support counselor, enabling me to apply these techniques in real-world situations with greater assurance. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Marie Murphy for her exceptional support throughout the course. Her insightful feedback was invaluable in helping me refine my skills and deepen my understanding of the material. I am confident that I will revisit the course materials in the future, as they are well-organized and serve as a valuable resource for ongoing learning and professional development.

Given that the course is entirely distance-learning and not in-person, the quality of tutoring including communication, advice and feedback is excellent.
