Skills Max Academy Reviews 

Hi this is Abdullahi I was one of Jhonell students on the DEA course for the energy assessor qualification, he ie Jhonell is an exceptional teacher as he facilitates the classes in a very high level manner,

if I was to give an example he organises in a way were everyone can understand and if someone has a hard time in doing so he will revise what they might misunderstood or miss out on.

His also diligent in how his work is presented to the students which I found very helpful, in conclusion Jhonell is an enthusiastic teacher & coach, it has been a pleasure to have been a student of his.

Yours sincerely Abdullahi Haaji

I had the privilege of being taught by Jhonell Lana on the Level 3 DEA course, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Jhonell’s teaching style is clear, engaging, and supportive, making the complex nature of Domestic Energy Assessments much easier to understand. He has a rare ability to balance professionalism with approachability, which creates a positive and motivating learning environment.

Throughout the course, he demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the subject matter, always taking the time to answer questions thoroughly and ensure that every learner was confident before moving on. His patience and encouragement helped me build not only my technical skills but also my confidence in applying them.

What truly stood out was Jhonell’s dedication. He actually genuinely cares about the success of his students and goes above and beyond to ensure we get the most out of the course. Thanks to his guidance, I feel more than prepared to carry this out into the field.

Jhonell is an outstanding teacher, and I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from him at Skills Max Academy! 5/5!

I am writing this review immediately after receiving my results, as I am so wholeheartedly grateful to my teacher, Jhonell. His support throughout my training at SKills Academy was nothing short of exceptional.

Jhonell possesses a rare combination of deep subject knowledge and genuine patience. He never hesitated to explain complex concepts multiple times, ensuring I truly understood the material. His passion for the subject is contagious and made learning engaging and effective.

This positive outcome is a direct result of his dedicated teaching and encouragement. I cannot recommend Jhonell highly enough to any current or future students. Thank you for everything!

Jhonell was an excellent tutor. He consistently went above and beyond to support his students, ensuring that everyone understood the material. What stood out most was his willingness to make himself available outside of lecture time, showing true dedication and care for his students’ success. I would recommend to anyone!

If I could give negative stars, I would. My experience at the Canning Town branch was extremely disappointing. The receptionist was unhelpful and quite rude. As a beginner, I was simply trying to understand which level I should start with, but instead of guiding me, she questioned me in a way that felt more like an interrogation.

Their advertisement is also misleading. It clearly states that beginners can start at level 3 if they pass the initial test, which is why I asked about it. Unfortunately, the receptionist didn’t seem to have any knowledge of this policy.

The only positive part of my visit was when I spoke to a teacher afterward—he explained things much more clearly. Honestly, they should consider having knowledgeable, patient staff at the reception, since that’s the first impression students get.

This we a very educational experience my tutor Jhonnel was very patient, considerate and consistent with explaining everything and the staff members definitely assisted in making a effort for me so I’d definitely recommend doing DEA and retrofitting to friends and family

I recently completed the Energy Assessment course, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The content was well-structured, practical, and clearly aligned with industry standards—perfect for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of energy efficiency and auditing practices.
What truly made the course stand out was the tutor (Jhonnel). Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable, but also genuinely kind and approachable. He created a supportive learning environment where questions were always welcomed, and complex topics were broken down with patience and clarity. His enthusiasm for the subject made each session engaging and enjoyable.
Whether you're new to energy assessment or looking to refine your skills, I highly recommend this course. It’s a great blend of technical insight and human warmth—thanks to a fantastic tutor who clearly cares about their students’ success.

I had an excellent experience with Skill Max Academy. From the moment I arrived, Pieter and Roxanne were extremely helpful and professional at the reception, always ready to assist with any administrative needs and making the process smooth and stress-free. Their friendly and efficient support created a welcoming environment right from the start.

A special mention goes to George, an outstanding teacher for the Level 3 course. His deep knowledge, approachable teaching style, and willingness to go the extra mile ensured that every student felt supported and motivated to succeed. George truly cares about his students’ progress and success, which makes a huge difference in the learning experience.

I highly recommend Skill Max Academy to anyone looking for professional training with exceptional staff and excellent teaching standards.
