Ever since I was a child, I have been fascinated by the world of hospitality. I did the necessary studies and then went on to work for various luxury and prestigious hotels, restaurants, bars and hospitality companies. I always set the bar higher for myself. After several years of gaining experience, I finally decided to make the step to the butler profession. Something I have been dreaming of for the last ten years. Being a butler is the highest level you can reach in the hospitality world. A good and proper education is the icing on the cake. For two years I did research. I wanted to go to the best school with the best education and the best guarantees for a bright future. Through two previous students of The Butler Valet School I came into contact with the director of the school: Mr. Rick Fink. Due to the Corona pandemic, I could not go last year. This forced me to take an online butler course through the Belgian butler school, but this did not fulfil my expectations.
When travel was permitted again, I immediately went to The Butler Valet School in Oxfordshire. It was an incredible experience. In a fortnight I saw more information than any course from any other butler school. Mr. Rick is an excellent teacher. I learned a lot from him and can use a lot of information for my future jobs. The lessons are very pleasant and all topics are covered. Also the domain and the static house of Ditchley Park gave a perfect work related impression. Through this way I would like to thank Mr. Rick again for his time and ambitious teaching. He is a new friend you can always count on.
