“Working with students a lot I found Brainstorm gave them some invaluable pointers on how to generate thoughts and ideas. Even more useful were the tools shown to release stuck thought processes or road-blocked ideas, tools which will be essential to them in their careers, all wrapped up in a bundle of fun and energy - a great day. Thank you.”

Richard Bell – Producer, Course Director (NZ Broadcasting School)

“Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed your brainstorming session at the Broadcasting School in Christchurch. The exercises were great - thought provoking but fun too! I will definitely use them in future - in fact I'm going to pass them on to my kids.”

Jo Bailey – Freelance journalist, author and aspiring screenwriter 

“As an adult community education coordinator of many years, I would rate Kathryn Burnett as one of the most dynamic tutors I have ever seen.  The evaluation forms from participants were full of praise for both the tutor and the relevance of her material; many told me personally that it was the best writing course that they had ever attended.”
