Completing my NVQ level 3 with Paragon Skills was a great experience. The excellent support and guidance from my tutor Elizabeth Naude throughout the course is a major reason i didnt give up half way. I doubted myself but she never gave up on me. Through regular check-ins and the encouragement which kept me motivated. I especially appreciated the flexibility of the course, allowing me to balance my studies alongside work despite the family challenges that made me pause the course at some point. Learning resources were clear and easy to follow which helped in building my confidence and practical skills at work. Completing this qualification has no doubt helped me grow professionally and given me valuable knowledge that i can apply in my career moving forward. I will definitely love to continue my career growth with Paragon Skills

Great tutors, great lessons, great website and easy to navigate and I would like to thank you to all of them. A special thank you to Aimee and kirsty from paragon skills!

Rachel Birkinshaw has been an absolute credit to Paragon Skills throughout my Level 5 Leader in Adult Care qualification. From the very beginning, she has been supportive, approachable, professional, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. Her guidance, encouragement, and knowledge have made a huge difference to my learning journey and confidence as a leader within adult care.

Rachel always went above and beyond to provide support whenever needed. No question ever felt too small, and she always took the time to explain things clearly and in a way that was easy to understand and apply in practice. She consistently encouraged reflection, professional growth, and confidence building, which helped me not only complete the qualification successfully but also improve within my own leadership role day to day.

The standard of support and communication from Rachel has been outstanding throughout. She was always organised, responsive, motivating, and positive, especially during stressful periods leading up to the Professional Discussion and End Point Assessment. Her feedback was constructive, detailed, and tailored personally to me, which made a massive difference in helping me understand where I could improve and how to achieve the best outcome possible.

I have genuinely learnt a huge amount during this course, both professionally and personally. Rachel’s experience, patience, and commitment to learners clearly show why she is such a valuable asset to Paragon Skills. The company is very lucky to have someone so dedicated and passionate supporting learners through their qualifications.

I am extremely happy and proud to have passed my Level 5 qualification, and Rachel played a massive part in helping me achieve this milestone. I cannot thank her enough for all the support, reassurance, and encouragement she has given throughout the entire journey.

I would highly recommend Rachel and Paragon Skills to anyone considering further development within adult care leadership. It has been an amazing experience that exceeded my expectations from start to finish, and I now look forward to receiving my official certificate in the post with a real sense of achievement.

Finally, today I completed my NVQ Level 3 with an overall distinction. This achievement is not only the result of my hard work, but also the amazing support I received throughout this journey from my tutors.
A huge thank you to Tracy who trust me more than i do and especially Kate for supporting me during the times when I felt helpless and lacked confidence. Kate, you are such an amazing tutor. You explained everything in such a detailed and clear way, and always helped to clear all my doubts. You were always available whenever I needed support.I truly feel lucky to have had you as my tutor. Lee, Heather, Judy are also absolutely amazing, i enjoyed all those informational workshops.  Thank you so much for all your guidance, encouragement, and support throughout my journey.

Today i completed my level 3 adult lead diploma at a merit. I want to thank my tutor Gurpreet kaur who supported me through this and was always there to answer any questions i had throughout the course.

I will apply what i have learnt to my job. Thank you

Finally, I’ve achieved my NVQ Level 3 qualification! I honestly couldn’t have done it without the amazing support from Kirsty Welding. From day one, she have been my pillar of strength throughout this journey.

There was a point where I felt like giving up, but then I thought about all the effort, encouragement, and belief she had invested in me, and that gave me the motivation to keep going. I didn’t want to disappoint someone who had supported me so much.

Thank you for always being patient, supportive, and encouraging. You truly make a difference in learners’ lives, and I hope you continue helping others the same way you helped me.

I highly recommend Paragon Skills.
Thank you so much, Kirsty! xxx

My experience was so amazing. I had Lydia as my tutor and she was so attentive and supportive . She believed in me and does with all her learners , as a learner with additional needs she catered to my struggles/worries so well. She believed I could do it and I finished the Level 2 with a double distinction I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the belief and the support tailored to me! Paragon skills as a whole has been so efficient. I highly recommend!

Completing my Level 3 qualification has been a really positive and rewarding experience, and a huge part of that is thanks to my tutor, Nicky Creswick. Nicky has not only been an excellent tutor, providing clear guidance and support throughout, but has also gone above and beyond in her role.
During times when I was mentally struggling, Nicky showed genuine care, taking the time to listen and support me without judgement. Her understanding and encouragement made a real difference and helped me stay motivated and on track.
I’m incredibly grateful for her patience, dedication, and the supportive environment she created. I couldn’t have asked for a better tutor to guide me through this journey and she is a credit to Paragon!

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to my tutor Shireen for the outstanding support and guidance provided throughout my NVQ Level 3 Lead Adult Care course.

My tutor was always patient, encouraging, and professional, making learning easier and more enjoyable. She took the time to explain tasks clearly, provided constructive feedback, and supported me whenever I needed help or clarification. Your encouragement helped to build my confidence and motivated me to complete my work to a high standard.

I truly appreciate the dedication, knowledge, and understanding shown during my learning journey. The support I received has helped me develop both professionally and personally within my role in adult care.

Thank you for being such a supportive and inspiring tutor.

The Supportive and dedicated team at Paragon Skills gave me the opportunity to thrive and flourish in my role as a Peer Support Worker. I have just completed Level3 Peer Worker Apprenticeship with Paragon Skills. The Guidance, Knowledge and skills of the subject from Nick Creswick (tutor) are incomparable, unique,and well deserved recognition. I have completed my apprenticeship with ease. The apprenticeship was very informative, insightful and engaging. Utilising always real examples from the work and applying it with theories and knowledge gained from the apprenticeship. This apprenticeship is recommended for anyone working as a Peer Support Worker as it provides with skills and knowledge that you will not receive from anywhere and fills the gap in understanding the role of peer work, the history of peer work as well as other imperative topics. For me, as an apprenticeship, I was very much interested in Emotional Intelligence topic which I found very eye opener and lead me to see the service users and the colleagues in a different light. Keep up the excellent work Nicky.

I had a brilliant tutor, Anne Whykes, and Ella brown, they pushed me to my limits and believe in me when I didn’t believe in myself, they altered the way they learnt due to my struggling with dyslexia, and I couldn’t appreciate them more, they really help and break stuff down even when it gets hard. THANKYOU so much.

What made my experience great was the consistent support, guidance, and encouragement I received throughout my NVQ Level 3 programme. My personal tutor, Joanne Heritage, was always approachable, patient, and motivating, which helped me stay confident and focused during my learning journey. The programme allowed me to develop valuable practical skills, increase my knowledge, and apply what I learned directly within my role. I especially appreciated the personalised support, constructive feedback, and regular communication that helped me progress successfully.
