“I am now more positive in my life, more outgoing and chattier with strangers. I now firmly believe what I have to say is important and worth listening to. My confidence has increased immensely, and subsequently I more fluent and now enjoy speaking. I cannot thank the people at MACH1 enough for helping me realise my potential and improve my life.”

“I thought that MACH1 was really useful in getting us to focus on the positives, also in allowing us to enter a chosen mindset in which to speak and just how much how we think affects how we speak.”
Joan T
A fantastic four days - phenomenally useful and from the heart - many thanks.

“I found most of the MACH1 course useful. I think the course was very well set up and organised. Some of the exercises I found a bit hard but overall it was good. I also met a lot of nice people.”

A well structured course, really good organization. I'm so glad I completed the course - it more than met my expectations.

“The biggest comment about the course that I have is that it's not only made me view my stammer in a different way but my entire life.”
Laura
“The course meant a lot to me and I will carry on using the techniques we have all learned. I feel honoured to have met such a wonderful, funny, and interesting group of people. I hope we will remain friends for years to come.”

I came on the course with an open mind, not knowing what to expect. I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every aspect of the course and would recommend it.

“The Mastering Change course has now given me a better understanding and has helped my speech tremendously. I just need to keep up the training!”
David
I am so glad I attended this course. I feel I now have the tools and knowledge to make important changes to the way I think, behave and view the world.

“I thought the MACH 1 course was absolutely amazing. It has given me a real insight into the psychological aspect of my speech and how I am able to change the way I think about it. I feel like a completely different person since I have completed the course, so much more confident, calm and in control. It’s magic!!”
Karen
Since attending MACH1, I have seen the world in a different way. My own place in it has gained more importance in my own eyes, which is the key for me. I am equal to everyone else and my opinions and ideas are just as valid and important as theirs. My speech has improved; not because I speak differently or with a technique, but because I now have self-worth and believe what I say should be heard and valued. The support I have received after the course has been great - by email, phone and face-to-face with fellow delegates, who I now count as friends
