City Lit Omdömen 

I attended an online writing masterclass at City Lit. The weekly meetup was facilitated by Jonathan Barnes and we met across three terms from September 2022 to July 2023 to share 5,000 word extracts from our novels in progress and provide feedback. There was a selection process to be part of the group and all the writers were at a high level. The feedback was amazing and being part of this group not only gave me the accountability to keep writing but made my writing better

The course that I have taken this year ( German and Italian ) have both been excellent. I appreciate the help I had with problems I had with trying to log on. Everything was a real problem for me but it was quickly solved for me by the technology department. I did find it very difficult to enrol online but by telephoning there was no problem at all.

City Lit is a safe and welcoming place to learn.
The staff is helpful on site, especially the IT support team who makes the sign in and set up process smooth on the first lesson. I really appreciate that as I'm not a confident computer user.
As for the tutors, they are understanding and supportive. They have a sound experience in their field but they show us that it doesn't matter to make mistakes as we learn. We just need to retrace our steps and do it again.
I also like that they are inclusive and remind us to be kind and respectful when we communicate during lesson.
Lastly, I think it's great that the tutors give us some ideas of what to study next.

Excellent tutors and great informative courses

Very informative session. I enjoyed my class very much. Would recommend City Lit to anyone who wishes to take new courses.

Course Review: Discovering Serenity Through Weekly Yoga Classes At City Lit

As an older man, life's journey has taken me through countless ups and downs, with the wear and tear of time leaving its mark on my body and soul. A few months ago, on a whim, I decided to embrace a new adventure and embark on a weekly yoga class. Today, I stand before you, transformed and grateful, eager to share the profound benefits I have found through this enlightening journey.

When I first stepped into the serene studio, I must admit, I was skeptical. The idea of contorting my body into seemingly impossible positions seemed daunting. However, from the very first class, I was embraced by a warm and encouraging community of fellow seekers, united by a shared desire for wellness and peace.

As weeks turned into months, I witnessed subtle yet significant changes taking place within me. Physically, my flexibility has improved, and my body feels rejuvenated. The gentle stretching and controlled movements have helped ease the aches and pains that accompany aging, making me feel more agile and limber.

Beyond the physical aspect, yoga has allowed me to cultivate a deeper sense of inner peace and mental clarity. Breathing exercises and meditation techniques have taught me to let go of the stresses that once weighed heavily on my mind. I find myself better equipped to face life's challenges with a newfound resilience and a calmer perspective.

One of the most surprising benefits has been the profound impact on my sleep. Struggling with Restless Leg Syndrome for years, I was amazed to discover that regular yoga practice has brought about a more restful and uninterrupted sleep. I awake each morning with a sense of renewal, ready to take on the day's adventures.

The guidance and wisdom of our experienced instructor have been instrumental in my journey. Her patient demeanor and attentive approach to each participant's needs create an atmosphere of trust and support. She seamlessly adapts the class to accommodate various skill levels, ensuring that everyone can fully enjoy the experience.

What I appreciate most about yoga is its inclusivity. It doesn't matter your age, fitness level, or background. The practice meets you where you are and gently guides you towards your goals, whatever they may be. Whether you seek physical improvement, mental tranquility, or spiritual growth, yoga offers a path for everyone to follow.

In conclusion, attending a weekly yoga class has been a life-changing experience for me. The physical benefits, mental clarity, improved sleep, and the sense of belonging to a supportive community have enriched my life immeasurably. For anyone, young or old, who seeks a holistic approach to well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend embracing the transformative power of yoga. It has undoubtedly become an essential and cherished part of my life's journey.

The technicians are amazing, provide guidance and freedom to learn in a short capacity of time, all the courses I've done have been fantastic.

The college has supported our class by providing ways to nurture it and by allowing it to grow and continue, so that we are still here today.
Our teacher is very experienced and dedicated. She has taught us skills that not only improve our language learning but help us in life.
No doubt we have made friends here that we will remember for life.

Excellent violin classes, skilful and engaging tutor, great surroundings, very enjoyable learning in a group - highly recommend.

As I find it very difficult to book courses online I prefer to speak to someone on the telephone. I can honestly say that your staff have always been very helpful, patient and helpful

teacher was very good and supportive

Fantastic teaching which is adapted to the experience and wishes of the students, friendly atmosphere in classes, good materials and studio to work in, pleasant and accessible building.

Amazing teachers and lovely space to meet others with similar interests.

I have been doing French online with city lit for the last two years, having not studied it since I did my o levels in 1968! There is an excellent range of classes at different levels to choose from; my tutor has been brilliant! The classes are friendly and well run and my french has improved enormously. I’m now faced with making decisions about classes for this coming academic year - spoilt for choice!

Great teacher, learning a lot on a variety of techniques and great classmates

Tutor Tony absolutely brilliant, nice manner, patient, understanding, first class teaching and online backup scores, videos etc. extremely helpful. Definitely bought my guitart playing & confidence along a great deal.

when learning mandarin from scratch you need a great teacher and that's what i have at citylit.

A fabulous teacher who is both knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It's a very challenging course but the sense of achievement and surprise ( Of the distance covered from the beginning to the end) is worth it.
