Leafy Learning began in January 2020. The free blogs, YouTube videos and resources on the website have been viewed thousands of times. We were also approached and asked if we could provide private tutoring and many emails said that our free provision was better than notes and resources provided by some other distance learning providers who charge hundreds of pounds.
We believe we have proved we can teach tricky topics and there is plenty of free content on the website if you want to take a look and judge for yourself. In 2023 we were approved by the RHS to offer this qualification.
- We are passionate about the environment and all aspects of horticulture. The qualified tutors who will support you have different industry backgrounds which means together we have a vast array of knowledge. The other thing that makes us great is that we have teaching qualifications: lots of experts know their subject but it does not mean they can teach it to others!
- RHS level 2 Certificate in the Principles of Plant growth and Development is the ONLY course we will offer. Our focus is really focussed!
Here is some feedback from students who have successfully earned their qualification:
Thank you so much! It’s been absolutely worth every penny, I felt so prepared for the exams, couldn’t have asked for a better teacher 🙂
I honestly don’t think I have any feedback, I felt like I had everything I needed, understood how to aim for high marks in the exams, just brilliant really! I’ve already been recommending you on Facebook & will continue to do so.
I just wanted to personally express my gratitude for all your help and support on the RHS Level 2. Having started my journey with another provider, my experience with Leafy Learning could not have been more different. The course notes, tutor guidance and networking amongst other students has been excellent. It’s been challenging but thoroughly enjoyable.
The level of support you offered through Leafy Learning was beyond my expectations, and I particularly found the option of the group Zoom meetings to be a huge benefit and the Monday Motivation emails really did provide the motivation needed to continue with the course. I’d highly recommend Leafy Learning to anyone looking to complete their RHS Level 2 qualification
I am delighted with my result. I didn’t really know anything when I started. Your notes were really clear and concise. I found it useful to read Botany for Gardeners alongside your notes because it is useful to have more than one way of describing the same topic. Your video sessions were really helpful and I hope you add more of them to your library for future students. The video session on exam technique was particularly useful and the most helpful part for me was how to structure the essay. I wasn’t quite sure what was expected before that and actually the time available in the exam for the essay is very short. I would recommend that students watch that video quite early on in the course.
