Interesting insight in leading event florist work. Would love to have information on proportions and shape/ what is suited where. Love the wild look and over the top extravagant style, inspiring color schemes. Good inspiration.

BBC Maestro has quietly become one of the most meaningful creative tools in my life. I don’t have access to elite literary circles or the ability to learn directly from world-class writers in real life. What BBC Maestro offers instead is something arguably more powerful: a front-row seat to how a brilliant mind approaches the work. The experience feels intimate without ever being intrusive—focused on craft, process, and intellectual generosity. It’s rare to feel this close to excellence while still being challenged to do the work yourself. This platform honors both the teachers and the learners. It proves that talent can be nurtured anywhere, when the teaching is this thoughtful. Thank you for offering this incredible class and I hope to create something a fraction as incredible as Mr. Follett’s work!

I did the Harlen Coben Masterclass and it was fabulous. He seemed truly engaged and pleased to be sharing his expertise. He was well organized - the order of lectures made sense. I learnd a lot and came away quite inspired to continue writing. He was also very entertaining and fun to just sit and listen to him telling his story and how he goes about his craft.

I took Simon Lycett's court, the videos are clear and well done. It gives a lot of relevant information. I am very satisfied.

BBCMaestro was recommended to me by a family member. I was very interested when I saw the list of writers you had. After listening to a few I was sold and signed up! It is well worth while to anyone who writes or wants to novels or any story. Well done!!

The class I am taking “Breath” is broken down into 20 lessons with course notes. Each class is very well done and involves some active participation to learn the techniques. James Nestor is an excellent presenter.

I'm enjoying the writing course I am currently taking. I haven't finished it, but so far it is well presented and paced, easy to understand, and informative. The author has a friendly, conversational tone which is encouraging, and tries to break her advice down into manageable lessons in a non-intimidating style.

BBC Maestro is a great app for learning new skills, there are a very wide variety of subjects to choose from. My favourites are the health and wellbeing and the food and drink ones.

I enjoy the learning process. I have also been writing a book for probably 30 years and decided after I saw the trailer of Harlan Coben’s writing class I decided to sign up for BBC maestro. It is a great deal for learning many different subjects and I enjoy the classes.

It’s OK but quite surface level. Great for beginners and just for general inspiration.

I’ve started doing some of the writers’ courses. They’re really well done. I’m learning things I’ve never thought about before. They’re really enjoyable as well. Addictive even!
