Reviews & Testimonials
Here’s what our learners have to say about the course:
I had a great time being taught Level 1 on line with Charlie Turnbull
I had a great time being taught Level 1 on line with Charlie Turnbull. He was engaging and enthusiastic and full to the brim with interesting cheese stuff just bursting to come out! I was a little apprehensive at first about studying and tasting cheese over the ether via the internet but I needn’t have worried, being able to taste the actual cheeses that Charlie had too was as straightforward as it could possibly be. Thoroughly enjoyed the two hour sessions each week, learning and trying cheeses…what is not to like?! Highly recommend Charlie Turnbull’s course as a way of studying for the Level 1 exam or just learning more about cheese from someone who really knows.
The course was very good
I took the course over a year ago with Charlie Turnbull as instructor. The intention was then to see how you did the courses since I hold many courses in Norway. The course was very good and a slightly different approach than what we normally have in Norway.
It has become an example to follow. Now I sign up for Level 2
