Simon is a born educator. He explains things so clearly without patronizing. Yannis is a great assistant; and his hard work is being repaid by learning new skills. The convent really is shaping up into s showplace.

[@maemartin6270]

It must be so nice for anyone wishing to learn new skills, to listen to Simon. You can tell he really wants to share his knowledge with everyone and it's so nice to take Yannis under his wings. He is such an enthusiastic learner. You are all so hard working and thanks Alex for your fabulous videoing skills. Keep up the good work. 👌

[@rosalindbarnett257]

Go Yanis!!! You’re a bundle of energy and so willing. Maybe we forget you’re a Frenchman, living in France and no-one is speaking French to you! 😘

[@sabalight2558]

@@rosalindbarnett257 For me Yannis is very charismatic, strong and calm. A very good mix. I wonder, why everybody is speaking english to him ... Maybe he likes it because he learns english in the same time ? As a french myself, i wonder all the time, why english chateau (or convent) owners do english spoken videos and how they find english craftmen in France (like Simon and Nick), because i never met english people in my region, and no english craftmen at all. But anyway, the advantage for me is that i learn english watching those videos. So the advantage for Yannis is maybe that he can improve his english as well.

[@TWROC96]

Totally agree about Simon being an excellent teacher in the way he explains things- calm, clear and direct. He should consider taking on two or three apprentices like Yannis who are interested in learning building skills and teach them as he rebuilds his own house as well as works on Billy's place.

[@anitanagahisa3049]

[@grandmasmagic3858]

yes..!! I'm enjoying Alex's view of the convent...his filmography is great...we get to see little aspects of the convent that Billy really didn't have the time to do AND it adds to Alex's resume for if/when he decides to move into the world of movies/TV series work..
