"The "Excel Power Hour" lived up to its reputation of being both thought provoking and infectious. Karen covered just the right amount of material to demonstrate some of the most useful capability of the mighty Excel, without over complicating it. Her communication skills are really good, she is patient and obviously loves the Microsoft products."
Roger Wise, Excel power hour
"I just wanted to say how fantastic the excel training with Karen this week was.
Karen took the time to answer questions,
talk through how it could be used in practice and allowed us time to follow the steps and trial out different ways of working. Karen has also offered to answer any questions over the coming weeks which is fantastic as an additional level of support after a course.
I have already implemented some of the techniques into one of my spreadsheets and I look forward to trying out more over the coming weeks.
I would highly recommend the course to anyone who works with excel regularly and wants to implement some time saving methods to improve efficiency in their work."

"I am so grateful for a training provider who finally gets my way of learning!
Historically I have found many training providers fill sessions with waffle; go over old ground;
fail to tailor solutions to the needs of the group/person being trained. Your energy; knowledge;
flexibility and focus of getting right to the nub of what's needed means I (a) enjoy it (b) stay
focussed (c) feel comfortable saying when I'm struggling (d) don't feel any guilt attending (ie: "oh goodness
... can I afford to take time out of my schedule to do this ..?")
(e) I get what I need in a timeframe that works brilliantly for my busy role."

"It was marvellous - all those little nuggets that you crammed in."
Joanne Alcorn, Microsoft Power Hour webinar in association with EA How To
"Karen was so warm and friendly and made the content engaging and interesting.
The time flew by and I didn't feel overwhelmed with information at any time,
it was actually a pleasure to be learning with her and I would recommend her
to anyone looking to sharpen their Excel skills."
Philippa Norman, Christ's College, Cambridge, half day Excel Intermediate training
"This was quite possibly the most efficiently run course that I've ever been on. No faffing about just an hour's worth of relevant content. I learnt lots of things I didn't know about PowerPoint, it comes with a crib sheet to look back on if needed and none of the nonsense you often get on webinars where the facilitators tend to try and encourage introductions and discussions in the chat that just distract from the content. Friendly, approachable trainer with a good sense of humour too."

"It was a surprise how many easier and quicker ways there are to do things. And how it is worth keeping up to date with all the new features! The sessions made me realise I'm still doing things the way it was taught a good 10 years ago."
Aneta Putane, Germains, Excel Intermediate/Advanced training
"I really enjoyed the Excel course and learned so much from it! Before taking it, I wasn't a regular Excel user,
but now I feel more confident and actually would like to start using it more often.
Karen made everything easy to understand and pretty fun too."
Fernanda Reig, Aga Khan Foundation UK, Excel Intermediate/Advanced training
"I really loved the course. Karen explained things so clearly, and there was no jargon to get lost in (hallelujah!). She made it interesting, useful, and way more fun than I expected!"
Csilla Esztergomi, Aga Khan Foundation UK, Excel Intermediate/Advanced training
"The trainer is fantastic, and she has the patience of a saint. She managed to navigate her way around everyone, and we did have a mix of beginners and intermediates. I can safely say that I would recommend Karen to any organization. Loved it!"
Anna Isabel Spinola, Aga Khan Foundation UK, Excel Intermediate/Advanced training
"Karen really was fantastic - like a walking, talking encyclopaedia with so many amazing tips!
She explains everything so well too. I look forward to her future events. Thanks EA How To for the session!"
Linda Moss, Microsoft Power Hour
"A very useful few hours, I now look forward to building on this through the course handouts and moving on to the next stage in the future."
James Nolan, AB Agri, Excel Getting Started
"That was the best Excel training I have had, I didn't really need the intermediate as use excel quite a lot so wanted
a refresher but I found it really helpful and engaging."
