Summer Schools | August 2020

We are pleased to be able to offer you a programme of online and face-to-face, short courses this August.

These courses include Indian Cookery, French for Beginners (Intensive), Drawing and Painting, Yoga and Yoga with Alexander Technique, Pilates , Pottery and Tai Chi. Missenden Abbey Walled Garden is due to open in early July and has agreed that we can offer our planned Practical Gardening Course at the site in August 2020.

Our team are also working hard to plan courses for Term One that will start in September. As course dates and times are subject to change due to the pandemic, please visit our website www.adultlearningbc.ac.uk regularly to find the latest course information and to book your place.

We have had some fantastic feedback from our learners who’ve continued learning online with us during the coronavirus pandemic. Learners on an interior design course said the following:

“I found it easy to use Google Meet to access the course right from the start. Emily uses excellent PowerPoint presentations and the fact that we can see her and each other and all talk together helps us to feel part of the group, while being online. We email Emily our floor plans and room briefs and she gives individual feedback. It’s
really useful that she has local knowledge of suppliers in Bucks for sourcing fabrics etc.”

“Adult Learning ensured that I was clear about how to access my online course – making it simple to join each class. It’s great as Emily the tutor sends her presentation slides to each of us after each session, so that we can access any useful links to websites for such things as fabric companies etc. – this is really helpful. I can’t wait to get started on my bedroom that hasn’t been touched since we moved in 10 years ago!”
