PhD Candidate, University of the Sunshine Coast, Australia
{Claire’s Masterclass allowed me to better understand what I want to do, how I can do it and most importantly, why I would choose to do it that way! Using simple story-telling techniques and analogies, Claire stepped us through deeply complex content making it digestible. She took time to respond to every question, engaged the group in meaningful examples and gave us the practice we needed to test ideas, take risks and check in with peers. Her steps have given me the road map I was missing.

{Claire’s dynamic mixture of theory, anecdotes, concrete models and Irish wit laid a foundation of thematic bricks and walls which will provide the foundation for my success as a PhD candidate. In short, you have transformed what could have been a very dry subject into a masterclass in pedagogy. Well done! It's people like Claire that give research a good name. Keep up the great work.

{I really enjoyed Dr Claire Moran’s Thematic Analysis Masterclass and loved Claire's teaching style. Claire manages to take what could be a dry topic and turn it into an engaging and lively learning experience. I feel like so many pennies dropped for me about what I'm doing in my research and why.
