Leiths Online Cookery School Reviews 

This course is aimed at Duke of Edinburgh Award participants who are looking to gain cookery skills in an online format. All the information is provided in an easily accesible starter pack and very engaging and easy to follow weekly video presentations that can be accessed whenever is convenient for the user. The course tutor is wonderful and her feedback is so positive and encouraging, perfect for teens who have never taken part in the various recipes and/or skills before. It is a great starting point for anyone who wants to learn to cook a variety of tasty recipes and how to prepare ingredients safely and in an efficient way in their own kitchens. Would highly recommend!

It was a great honour to learn how to cook like a professional from a prestigious culinary art school.I really enjoyed the lessons and the tutors were professional and consistent in their delivery of the material. In other words I made a great investment and I have acquired skills that will benefit me and others. Thank you very much.

Did the fish fundamentals. Learnt lots about fish and shell fish. Clear instructions and videos I. How to filet and skin fish. Great recipes. Wonderful side salads. Great feedback I can do something with from the mentor who was v encouraging. Great to do this at own pace at home.

I did this for bronze D of E and it was really good.

The Leith’s course was just fabulous and has elevated my cookery skills to the next level. The tutors were highly skilled and particular about each element of the cooking process. Video footage left nothing to chance and you could cook along to the video to interpret each step correctly. Belinda, our mentor, was excellent!

Recipes were for quite a large quantity, and it was not specified how many people it should feed to allow for adjustment at the beginning. Some of the ingredients were less commonly used and more expensive to buy. Recipes were generally quite wintery. It was a struggle to make chilli con carne one week folllowed by macaroni cheese the next week when it was the height of summer.

My daughter did the course for her bronze Duke of Edinburgh, skills. Each video was brilliant, explaining the recipe and demonstrating step by step the cooking. She really enjoyed it thank you.

A really super online cookery school, one of my children did a course for their DoE silver skills badge, the recipes were delicious, sufficiently challenging yet teen-friendly, the videos provided step-by-step instructions and support and the feedback was spot on. Highly recommend.

I found the course really, really useful as I hadn’t cooked before and, as a 70+ year old busy divorcee and grandfather still working 5 days a week, I still managed to complete the course in 6 months (some evenings but mostly weekends), because the combination of videos, written instructions & theory notes, being part of a class and prompt feedback by a professional mentor kept me interested, motivated and informed all the way through the 6 months. I will do the certification next spring and then go on to an advanced or specialist course with Leiths, whom I couldn’t recommend more highly. Huge thanks, James

Such a comprehensive program. Very easy to follow and feedback loop great.

The course was very well structured, clear videos and prompt feedback from knowledgable tutors.

Such a thorough and informative course. Definitely improved my skills and confidence in Bread & Patisserie.

I thoroughly enjoyed my Leiths Online Cookery Course. The videos were very clear and well presented. There was lots of feedback given by the very supportive mentors and it was a thoroughly rewarding experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone wishing to further their knowledge and skill in baking, all from their own home.

A brilliant learning course !
This course is ideal for anybody that wants to take their cooking to a level up or wants to start a career in culinary arts.
Excellent value for money

Both of my kids took the Duke of Edinburgh Award course and loved it. The videos were very convenient and well presented and the feedback was genuinely helpful and considered. The recipes are also really wonderful. I would recommend it to anyone

great course, learnt a lot

My daughter loved the cooking lessons and so do I. The recipes were delicious and we are still cooking some of them.,

Some suggestions is to offer some replacements if the child is allergic or doesn’t eat certain foods.

Definitely recommend this course!

Loved the video tutorial and the list of shopping and equipment needed is very detailed.

It was a great course. Maybe started a bit basic for kids that have previous cooking skills. Great value for money - have recommended to others

A really enjoyable course, well taught and helped me develop my cooking skills.
