Tom’s talent and style is globally recognised and we’re delighted to welcome him to our team of experts. With the support of tutor Tom and his team, students will be placed into a cohort of up to 20 people in which they can chat and swap ideas with fellow classmates, study from videos and download notes. Students will also have the opportunity to ask Tom any questions they may have along the way as well as receiving detailed feedback on their garden plans. By the end of this course, students will have designed a stunning garden which suits the mood and character of their own landscape. CEO of Learning with Experts, Elspeth Briscoe, has an in depth understanding of human online networks from running the community teams at eBay in the early days, and having been part of the senior management teams at Skype and The Digital Guardian. She said: “We curated Tom’s course to appeal to the design student We’ve seen a fivefold increase in demand for our online gardening courses compared to this time last year and have responded quickly to the current situation. We’ve quickly pivoted to remote filming, making sure our crew and experts remain safe and continue to deliver quality content to illustrate our courses.” The Learning with Experts production team, who draw on skills as former news broadcasters and producers, are using sophisticated software to carry out high production value filming, completely remotely when needed. Tom’s course launches on the 27th July and the price of the course starts from £29.
