Verified reviews from instructors who trained with Henderson ADI Training.

I can’t recommend Karen highly enough for anyone preparing for their standards check or ADI Part 3. From the very first session, it was clear that her training was extremely well structured and thoughtfully planned. She quickly identified the areas of my skillset that needed improvement and tailored each session to target those specific points, which made the training incredibly effective. Karen’s approach is both supportive and professional. She creates a relaxed learning environment while still challenging you to improve and refine your skills. What really stood out to me was the quality of her feedback after every session. It was always clear, detailed, and constructive, giving me practical steps to work on before the next lesson. This allowed me to focus my preparation properly and steadily develop the parts of my skillset that needed strengthening. She was also very flexible with scheduling, which made fitting the training around my existing commitments much easier. Her experience and insight into what is required for the standards check gave me a lot of confidence throughout the preparation process. Thanks to Karen’s guidance, I felt far more prepared and confident going into my standards check. I’m extremely happy with the support and training I received and would highly recommend her to any instructor looking to develop their skills or prepare for their standards check.

I can't thank Karen enough for her helping me pass Part 3 of my ADI test. Having a insight to what examiners are looking for was hugely beneficial. Karen also provided thorough feedback and support.
Colin RazzaqueADI Part 3
Karen is absolutely brilliant! From day one she made me feel comfortable and supported through my ADI Part 3 training. She’s patient, friendly, and explains things in a way that just makes sense. Karen always gave me honest feedback and lots of encouragement, which really boosted my confidence. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better trainer – she went above and beyond to help me prepare. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your progress and makes learning enjoyable, Karen’s the one!
Nick MacADI Part 3
I can’t recommend Karen highly enough. After an unsuccessful first attempt at Part 3, I knew I needed some extra help to understand where I had gone wrong and, more importantly, what was expected of me. I asked Karen to come and sit in on a lesson and give me some honest feedback on where I was falling short and what I could do to develop the areas that weren’t quite up to the required standard. Her feedback was exactly what I needed. She was able to pick up on things that I hadn’t recognised myself and helped me understand not just what I needed to improve, but give me a better understanding as to why. It gave me a much clearer understanding of what was expected of me and how I needed to approach not just the test but my lessons as a whole. I’ve now passed my Part 3 and am officially a qualified ADI, and I genuinely don’t think I would have felt as prepared for my second attempt without Karen’s help. Thank you so much, Karen, for all your help and guidance. I really appreciate it and would definitely recommend you to anyone preparing for Part 3 or just looking to continually develop their skills.
Salma TumiADI Part 3
Karen was a fantastic help with my Part 3 preparation. Her clear, constructive feedback really helped me understand where I needed to adapt my lessons and improve my approach. I’m delighted to have now passed my Part 3 and would highly recommend Karen to anyone preparing for theirs.
Dale LushADI Part 3
Only had a handful of lessons with Karen to prepare for my part 3 and passed first go no bother! Very professional friendly and worth every penny.
