Testimonials
"Wonderful"
Ellesmere Primary School
"He was funny, smart and very knowledgeable, and always made us laugh! He was able to teach us new things whilst making sure that we were having a good time."
James Brindley School, Birmingham
"Our GCSE historians were fortunate enough to attend a talk given by a specialist in medical history. Kevin Goodman showed his vast repertoire of medical tools and showed students how surgeons would treat the afflicted in simpler times. His knowledge and expertise offered excellent support to the students as they prepared for their exams."
Birmingham Ormiston Academy
"Highly entertaining and extremely informative"
Harewood Junior School, Gloucester
"Enthralled both pupils and staff with his extensive knowledge of medieval medicine "
Bishop Vaughan School, Swansea
"Kevin's expert subject knowledge and replica tools and instruments really brought to life the complex beliefs people had about illness from the Romans, Medieval European, Islamic and Renaissance periods. Kevin also skilfully explained the different operations that were carried out in the past and the changes that led to improvements and developments. Kevin's sessions were enlivened by his extensive collection of replica tools and surgical implements. Event organiser Miss Charles said, "The day was excellent revision for all the students involved. It really brought to life all the developments in medicine students have studied in year 9 and it was great to see the students interacting with the different artefacts."
Aldridge School
