This is my little corner of the internet. Hopefully, you can learn something around here (and teach me something too!).
Feedback from course participants
Covered a lot of ground but still managed to go into a lot of detail. It covered everything that I needed.
The instructor was brilliant and friendly, his approach to TDD felt more relevant to my day-to-day life than other explanations I'd seen before which I really appreciated. It's made TDD feel more practical and grounded for me. I appreciated that there was a range of activities including a chance to try things out myself. I also appreciated being put into small groups rather than pairs which made discussion easier. I also appreciate the further reading recommendations and lots of resources to refer back to. I appreciated that the session was engaging and interactive without it feeling forced, with regular breaks.
information, explanation and how it is all relevant was delivered excellently. Epic, fun and engaging
Despite being just 3 days I came away with a good overall knowledge of python and what it can do. The labs were structured well and organised and Kevin was a great instructor as always explained things in an easy way to follow. Was great. Good timings with breaks and lunch and never felt long or tiring like others can do
Good mix of interactivity but also not too forced. Also liked that there were lots of alternative language examples available for the excercises. Delivery was good. Really liked the use of miro to deliver notes and combine interactivity, certainly more engaging than flat powerpoint slides. The task with the breakout rooms worked well too I felt.
An incredible amount of content was covered and I enjoyed having the balance of teaching followed by lab exercises to practice what we'd learned.
Very comprehensive introduction to RAG with OSS. Documentation/labs prepared on github were very good.
The exercises designed to practice the concepts explained
I appreciate how quickly Kevin was able to write solutions and explanations of things on the fly. The training was good and it already contained a lot of useful tricks to optimise loading react components. Lazy loading will be useful on our web apps.
I try to blog regularly with a mix of tutorials, helpful articles and thoughts about tech and life. Here are my latest posts:

I spend most of my time teaching and coaching teams inside of medium to large organisations. I also run workshops and speak at conferences.
I use what I create and discover with live groups to build out pre-recorded courses.
I'm most active on Bluesky and less so on Mastodon . I also have a YouTube channel where I post videos tech tutorials. My Github profile is also here.
