Our Testimonials
“Nothing develops a sense of self-belief like the praise of others”
As a result of our work, we often receive verbal and written praise for help and guidance we have given to people. Here are a selection of extracts from written testimonials we have received:
"As a company we provide translators and interpreters to work with various Police Forces throughout UK. Some of the work we are asked to do is to provide specialist linguistic support to the Metropolitan Police where work we are asked to undertake is of a particularly distressing nature.
Transcription of these articles was producing adverse effects for some of the translators. Tim was asked to use his skills to show my team and I how we could deal with these traumatic images and sounds and still remain detached. Through holding one-to-one sessions with the translators Tim equipped us with a method of working which enables us to remain removed from the subject matter whilst being able to work closely on it.
I have absolutely no hesitation in saying that irrespective of the business, Tim has the relevant skills and experience to bring a fresh and enlightened look at any work-place situation. I would recommend his advice and life coaching services to anybody in business."
Graham Paton
Managing Director
Linguassist Interpreting & Translation Services Ltd.
"Tim carried out a comprehensive assessment of our organisation. He produced a report that was both an accurate and honest conclusion, containing recommendations of how we can address the issues and move the staff team forward in a positive way.
Tim had a professional approach to the task requested, and yet was able to be sensitive to the more personal development needs of individuals.
Tim’s approach to matters is relaxed and effective.
He can make learning and changing fun and enjoyable.
I have experienced Tim’s methods in my personal and professional development.
Tim worked with me as a team leader, empowering me to pass on insights to colleagues.
At BAWSO we work with people in crisis, where there are often no easy solutions. This creates a high level of stress for staff. Tim was able to help staff recognise the pressures of this type of work, and find individual approaches that enabled them to work empathically with clients without compromising their own emotional well-being.
Since working with Tim we have noticed an increased sense of harmony and cohesion within the team. I am confident to recommend Tim to any organisation seeking to grow, develop or enhance their staff team."
Donna Powell
(Acting Manager)
BAWSO
"I feel that working together through the various exercises and practices taken from your "Key Skills for Practitioners" course has enhanced my understanding of my self and the world around me and enriched my personal and professional development.... I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for everything that you have shared with me - the skills and knowledge that I have gained have proved to be a valuable part of my life journey."
SH, N.Wales
"Tim has helped me to look at people and situations in quite a different light and to be able to release the negative energy that we as individuals seem to accumulate from others.........I got a lot out of Tim's workshops and even today I still use his words and exercises to deal with certain situations."

"Eighteen months ago I was at rock bottom and my future to me looked very bleak. With your help and guidance I am a totally different person, I am now the strong positive person I was some 20 years ago.........As a person I have grown and grown, my confidence in myself is unbelievable to the point I think almost nothing is unachievable. With this new found confidence I have reached for higher goals and have achieved them.
Mrs. SW, Lincoln.
"I engaged the services of Key Life Skills over a period of six months in 2006 and although I found some of Tim's ideas somewhat difficult to grasp at the beginning, over the six months I began to relate to more and
more of what he had been so painstakingly trying say.........I am now in a position where I can plan the week - even the month ahead quite easily without feeling so stressed all the time. Being in business is never going to be plain sailing but I feel that the new values and
changes that Tim coached me with, have helped me with my business.
I would like to thank Tim and would highly recommend any business to use his services.
Mr. SW, Flintshire.
"I have worked with Tim on several occasions over the past months. Most of the times I have been either distressed or not clear where I should be channelling my energies or how I should be doing it. I now feel much calmer and in control of my life. I have the "tools" to bring myself back to centre when I need to. I feel happier and more able to cope with crisis as and when they occur. I also know that I can go and talk to him at any time should I need to and this is very comforting."
JB, N.Wales.
"Tim is selfless and gives of himself unconditionally, his dedication and commitment to the welfare of others is paramount. My personal experience ..of working with Tim helped me tremendously, through his grasp and understanding of the human condition and all it entailed, he was able to guide and encourage me, thus promoting self growth and empowerment."
JH.
"Tim works his magic in a way that may be unknown to the majority, but this does not in any way detract from the value of what
he achieves. One's inner growth and development evolve gradually over a period of time in such a gentle way that one is almost
unaware of the effect.
As far as practical applications for life skills go, he is very able in this area too. He has helped me overcome some fears
which have since enabled me to become more effective in my job. If you are lucky enough to have Tim work with you, make the
most of his expertise: for me it was a once in a lifetime chance to achieve my potential."
ML. N.Wales.
"Tim's approach is dynamic, professional and very effective. The first person you have to believe in is yourself and he manages that by
getting you to examine all the best qualities within you while also identifying those weaknesses that perhaps inhibit your performance.
Tim has the ability to focus on the individual and their needs giving them the confidence to speak openly allowing him to give the
most relevant techniques to improve their life skills.
I would whole-heartedly recommend Tim to anyone on a personal or professional
level, with his help my life has changed and will continue to do so..."
RM, Wrexham.
"Tim has helped me greatly in understanding myself, and clearing so much emotional baggage that was holding me back. He enables you to
look at yourself with a clearer view, and helps to build your confidence and to know your own self worth and importance.
I now feel free to be me, and feel so much stronger and more confident than I ever have before."
