“I have participated in learning sessions with Nigel that have been of immense value in deepening my understanding of qualitative research. Nigel’s approach is pragmatic and inclusive – he sees the value in different qualitative data analysis approaches for different types of research. The information provided by Nigel has been insightful and immediately implementable. His personable manner made it easy to ask questions, even basic questions from a beginning researcher to help resolve data analysis quandaries. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity of learning more about qualitative research from Nigel”

“It has been a privilege and delight to attend research discussions and engage in workshops with Nigel King. He makes discussing methodological approaches and quandaries fun and accessible with a broad range of participants from novice to expert. He applies his broad knowledge borne from a diverse research background to find examples and ways to describe things that make it instantly relatable to your own context. It is a delight to work with an expert that holds the methodological debates lightly and looks at research potential from different aspects. I could listen to Nigel for hours, yet, his pragmatic questions and curated examples demand engagement, that shift you from thinking to doing. Every minute spent with Nigel King is a solid investment in your own research capacity.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Nigel over the last year, having booked him for various teaching and speaking engagements with my research community. He is extremely easy to work with when organising sessions, always flexible and responsive to requests and extremely professional. In terms of content delivery, this has always been outstanding, whether he is delivering a pre-recorded video or presenting to a live audience. His ability to explain complex topics in an accessible manner, makes him particularly popular with the researchers I work with, regardless of whether they are novice or more experienced researchers. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nigel’s teaching and workshops to any organisation who is looking to provide professional development opportunities to their staff and postgraduate students.”
