What people say …
Gopala Davies, Theatre and Film Director
“Serga is an excellent Makaton tutor who is patient, inclusive and supportive. Her classes were the highlight of my week. Serga's dedication to the core vocabulary and gentle approach when sharing it, will ensure that you leave the course an empowered Makaton user”
Hannah Cons, Early Years Practitioner
“I completed Level 1 with Serga and warmed to her lovely character straight away, I enjoyed level 1 so much that I immediately requested to be added to level 2! Her courses are interactive and fun and being able to do them online really helped with childcare etc. Truly, I can’t recommend enough, and I’m now passionate about using Makaton within early years”
Helen Lawlor, Educational Setting
“Absolutely fantastic training. Serga made it so enjoyable, and she was enthusiastic about the content that it made you want to go back to class and sign everything!! Loved it! Use it within a school setting and at home with my children”
Faye Beesley , Greenacre Nursery School
“Absolutely brilliant, this is vital in my role at work. I have always wanted to learn Makaton but thought it would be hard. The way Serga taught us really helped me understand all about Makaton. I have already put my skills into practice. Thank you”
Amy Ellerby, Primary School teacher

Joanna Jarosz-Wojcik, Brunswick Nursery School
“Training was providing very well. I have learnt very easy a lot of Makaton signs. Serga is a very good tutor and teacher. I really enjoyed and learnt.”
Jessa Labial, Norwich International School
“Having attended Serga's Level 1 training in November 2022, and just completed Level 2 with her over the weekend, I can attest that she is a very skilled Makaton trainer. As always, she met all good expectations for me. Having training with her feels like having a very individualised experience. Whenever I have enquiries or have doubts about my signing, she has been a great help to me. I will definitely attend more training sessions by Serga”
Nikita Todd, SENDCo & Inclusion Lead
“Serga was a great support to help us ensure we had all we needed in place to become Makaton friendly. She supported us through the process and pointed us in the right direction when we needed it. It's lovely to see basic Makaton being used throughout the rooms now“
Lyndsey Dale, Greenacres Nursery Community School
“I really enjoyed this course. I feel like I have learned a lot to help me communicate within my role in the nursery. We have some children who do not talk and I can’t wait to see what happens. Fantastic and I can’t wait for the second”
