Praise for our online course

Exceptional
'The online lessons were fantastic. Exceptional.' Varvara, Montessori teacher

A self-esteem booster for sure!
'I have absolutely loved the course. My fear when becoming a teacher was that I wouldn't be confident enough to be big and silly and find ways to engage the children within their play and learning, so to have these games and ideas to support the children is amazing. The course is incredible, massively supportive and a self-esteem booster for sure! I would highly recommend for any new and aspiring teachers or any experienced teachers that want to connect with new ways to engage their children, brush up their skills and encourage the lost imagination of children.' Millie Tyerman, BA Early Childhood Studies, Northampton

A transformative approach
'Wonderful course, which has led to a reframing of how I would approach different areas of Learning - this is a transformative approach!' Gillian Hoult, student (Early Years Initial Teacher Training Course)

Gave me confidence
'I thought the lessons were amazing. I am only just starting my PGCE course and was quite nervous about going back into the classroom. The lessons not only have me new techniques, but also gave me confidence in using this more 'drama' based approach.' Demetra Tzamarias, PGCE In Early Childhood Education and Care 0-5

Part of the community
'The supporting tutorials were really useful and helpful as it made me feel more of a part of the community. I was able to ask questions and see others talk about their experiences. It kept me focused on the course. Taking the course has helped me think about my overall approach in my setting, how I speak to the children and engage with them'. Judith Wood, Childminder

Related really well to EYFS
'The online lessons were brilliant. The online tutorials were really informative. They related really well to the EYFS.' Amanda Cornish, Nursery Manager

Brilliant
'Brilliant. The lessons are informative, lively, straightforward, entertaining, concise, to the point and VERY watchable.' Stephen Waldron, retired Deputy Head Teacher

I'm so grateful
‘Practical and creative ideas that don't require specific resources that take extra time. My children are so engaged with the activities and songs. I'm so grateful to Pyjama Drama Learning for improving my teaching.’ Hannah

Very effective
'The tutorials were very effective as it gave opportunities for questions. In particular, I found listening to other practitioners and their experiences of carrying out activities particularly helpful.' Naomi Breslin, Deputy Manager and Preschool teacher

10/10 - would recommend
‘BEST CLASS EVER! It can be very awkward and out of your comfort zone to play pretend in front of adults, but trust me, it is FUN and you learn by doing! If you are a teacher, take this class. Practice at home. Your kids will love everything you bring back to them. I have nothing but great things to say about Pyjama Drama and the instructor, Sarah. 10/10 would recommend!!’ Cici

Inspired and excited
'I have thoroughly enjoyed this training opportunity. I am so very excited to use Pyjama Drama in my daily practise. I am inspired and excited! It has helped me to rethink how I actually model to the children and how I will interact with them in the future. Thank you so very much!' Abigail Brana, Nursery teacher

Supported my confidence
‘The tools that I have learned through the Pyjama Drama Learning workshops have supported my confidence in engaging with imaginative play and with children I work with. Play is the best way to learn.’ Laurinda Wagner

Really useful
'I found the lessons really useful, I have implemented a few in my sessions and have found they have been really effective.' Anne Marie Hepworth, EYFS teacher assistant

I will use what I learn with the children
‘I was unsure at first as to what to expect from the class, but as time went on I got more comfortable and really enjoyed the class. Sarah demonstrated great ways to use the material and our own imagination. I will use what I learn with the children. Thanks for a great class.’ Meredith

Recommend to anyone working in early years
'I'm so glad I did the course. Not only to broaden my delivery, technique and a new skill set, but it gave me a little bit more confidence in myself. It was a bit of 'me' time in a subject that I'm intrigued about. Would definitely recommend to anyone working in early years, or to parents who want to unlock imaginative play potential hidden in yourselves.' Claire Williams, Wildchild Officer

Would definitely do more!
‘Very informative and helpful. A viable alternative to in-person workshops. Lots of individual feedback, small group work. Instructor was very well prepared, knew the technology and her material. Would definitely do more!’ Rosemary Gagner

So valuable to teachers
'This was perfect! So valuable to teachers. Thank you for sharing the music!!!

Offering imaginative play has supported their learning of cooperation, decision-making skills and investigation skills!' Feedback given as part of an anonymous survey
