“The “courses” I’ve tried so far have turned out to be more like a lesson or two chopped into very short snippets. Lacking in the depth I expected, and a bit disappointing. At the moment I cannot see myself renewing the subscription if I find the same in other “courses”.”

“Content is accessible and easy to listen to. I like that the chapters are in bite size segments, so that I can adjust how much I listen to, depending on time available.”
“So many topics and inspirational people. Practical, heartfelt and generous with their advice. Where else can you get advice from people who are at the top of their game and have already trodden the path you’d like to take.”
“Really enjoying the first of hopefully many Maestro's great that you can put subtitles on as can watch with the sound down so great as an alternative to bedtime reading”
“Harlan Coben is an articulate and encouraging writing coach who is very helpful with his tips and tricks of the craft of writing thrillers. His approach is refreshing and down to earth, yet still intelligent and informative.”
“I have done one short course and am in the middle of a longer tutorial of 27 sessions. I have found both excellent. Clear instructions to follow or play with; seemingly obvious enjoyment and engagement by the tutors. Excellent course notes. I like that the turorials are delivered in what I call manageable chunks, not too much in one go and with the possibility of revisiting and taking one's time. I have learnt such a lot in only a short space of time.”
“BBC once again was perfect... perfect and easy way to learn and add more knowledge to the subject I need to understand and develop. The selection of specialists is sensational! Thank you, BBC!”
“This was a great review of how foods can heal our gut micro biom. Gave me some new perspectives and a renewed interest in improving my health and dealing with gut issues. 30 plant based foods a week, very doable!”
“I love BBC Maestro courses because they open up a new world of excitement, hope and possibilities to me, in that any, or all of those, twenty nine teachers might impart to me some their hard won knowledge and wisdom so that I may benefit greatly from their tips and in turn be able to excel in a way that I wouldn’t have done without their help.”
“Very easy to use. I enjoyed the informal but information packed lessons from Harlan Coben. He was interesting and provided more of a perspective for thinking about writing a novel and being a writer than a lot of facts students can get out of any craft book.”
“O dois cursos que fiz gostei muito. Os dois são objetivos. A BBC MAESTRO é uma ótima plataforma onde você vai encontrar os melhores profissionais da sua área de interesse. Vocês podiam convidar a autora Karin Slaughter para dar um curso. Que tal? Parabéns e recomendo muito”
“I am enjoying my course with Julia Donaldson which is helping me plan, structure and schedule my picture book. Such guidance is so valuable. Thank you.”
“Imagine you are being taught in a private room by the best teachers. You are in possession of a genie in a bottle -- when you desire to have a lesson, there they are. I love being able to learn at my own pace and to be able to watch lessons more than once. This is a bargain, but beyond that, it's a delight to learn and grow whilst nurtured by the best.”
“Only so far into my portrait painting course and inspired by Jonathan’s artwork. However I would have preferred getting in to a more practical level earlier on. It’s felt like more of a talk with observing his artwork more as a background, with too little explanation on his chosen techniques and practice. I’m sticking with it to discover more.”
“Loving this so far. Poetry and Design in flight they are set at a good pace, interesting and informative. Looking forward to working my way through the rest of the courses.”
