Testimonials
Dear Mr Williams
It is very difficult to express my full gratitude for you both in worlds. The tiny dedication and guidance you give my team is immeasurable. Every day spent with you both is full of joy and knowledge. The energy is palpable. I hope to see you both once this is over and share a meal together. Maybe with a bottle of 82 Latour in our 10th location.
Best wishes to you both With heartfelt gratitude

Dear Gary
Everyday learning from you in a wonderful adventure into all things beautiful. While there are many who talk about the way things ought to be its truly inspiring to watch you exemplify theses lessons in every way from how to hold yourselves to how you address and treat others. I sincerely hope we have the opportunity to work with and learn from you again. (More Modules) God bless.
Dear Mr Williams
Does on choose the profession of a butler or does the butler profession choose you? The sacrifice you`ve made to help others better themselves is not only the measure of a true gentleman but also a true leader. Your teaching shall be magically passed through the lives you touched to those who`s polite smile of gratitude your never see. But rest assured the passing of knowledge shall be presented with a sense of pride in hopes of making the world a better place.
Godspeed Mr Williams

Dear Mr. Williams
Just a quick email to thank you and Ms. Thompson for helping me to reach the Royal Caribbean Group Hiring Management . I proudly would like to inform you that I have been selected to join the Company under the Royal Genie position. I feel blessed and very thankful.
I hope to be able to meet you soon again for another wonderful Training session.
Kind regards,
Dear Mr Williams,
I am Jakub, a graduate Butler of the TBBI class of Spring 2019 in London and would like to thank you tremendously for what you have taught me. I am proud to wear my gold badge close to my chest as my treasure. At first, I didn’t believe in the beginning of the class but yes you were right, my life changed in a good way. After completing the four week course, my partner and I, Rozeena, accepted a job as a Domestic Couple for a family of four in Saint Tropez. Three years later, I am now the formal Butler and Rozeena is the Lady’s Maid for the UHNW family.
It was a delight to have Gary with us for the incredible immersion. We truly value the partnership with The British Butler Institute. We look forward to welcoming the team onboard Apex, Equinox and Millennium in the near future. Thank you for sharing!
We do not know how to put into words how truly thankful we all are that we have had this opportunity to learn only a small portion of what you have to teach. The training you provided and wisdom along with experience and personable present was incredible. 10/10 ALL ROUND”.
The pineapple is a sign of confidence and the Japanese Carp are said to symbolise fighting spirit due to their hardy nature. YOU CAME TO US AT THE PERFECT TIME!
“I honestly cant thank you enough. What an incredible course we were so privileged to have you onboard training us. With our first guest onboard we are putting all our knowledge into proactive. I hope we can make you proud!
Dear Mr. Tamis,
Once again KUDOS, to you and the “Royal Genie” program on board Anthem of the Seas!
My husband and I just returned from another wonderful cruise (02-15-20). We had a Grand Loft Suite, cabin 10724. Our Royal Genie this time was Yen Lee. I must commend you for instituting this fantastic program. I can’t tell you how many hundreds of relatives, friends and strangers I’ve told about this outstanding program.
Last cruise our genie was amazing; but on this voyage Yen Lee was simply spectacular. Everyday she outdid herself; no matter how small or large the task; she showed compassion, dedication and a true love for what she does. She went above and beyond to make every moment memorable. Her personality, effort and work ethic are top grade. I truly believe you should consider her for the corporate office in recruiting and training of future genies. She is that good!
We are already planning our next cruise; and of course it will be with another “Royal Genie.”
Best regards,
Dear Gary,
I hope this message finds you in a great place!
I’m writing you to thank you again for your wonderful Venice seminar in 2018. To this day I still see and use most of the stuff you taught us there!
My career had some wonderful turn this past year, worked at the 6th best bar of the world and then the brand new Four Seasons in Athens! I’m working at In Room Dining there and I’m the butler for private dinners etc… Last summer there was a guest from Dallas that was amazed by my service and said that from now on she would have more expectations from her future Butlers. To me that was the best compliment. Turned out she liked the service SO much, she flew me in Colorado for her family Christmas vacations to be their butler!
I’ve gained so much experience and so many details from that trip that i would love to share! If by any chance I could be a useful asset to you in Greece please let me know! I would be more than happy for example to share my experience to some of your students in Greece as a guest to the seminars. I’d love to be the example that this seminar really helped provide good service, elevate my career and gave me memorable experiences! I think it would motivate them even more hear some words from someone that used to be in their position just 2 years ago!
Thank you again for everything, if anything I can assist you with in Greece please let me know, I’ll be more than happy!
Best Regards,
Dear Mr. Williams,
I hope you had wonderful holiday and i wish you a very wealthy and happy new year.
I’m Apinya, one of your student from Thailand and currently working for Thai Airways. I’m writing this email to show my gratitude towards all of your knowledge I have from my both butler classes with you, in Bangkok and in London.
What you taught me is very useful and it changes my passenger’s experience. For me, it took months trying to adapt and adjust your world class standard of training to be in my own way. Especially how to deal with the difficult guests. The role plays and dialogues you trained us save my life so much. Also it gives “WOW” experience to my passengers as they told me that they heard it only in 5 stars hotels.And another great thing I learnt from the class which is “attention to the small details” works very well on board. Like you told me, it’s better to spend few minutes to take a look closely than spending hours or day to fix the problem. Also this works well to my personal life.
From the butler class I attended in London last September, it widen my eager of learning and leads to applying for the finishing school, which I’m sure it will improve my working skill or even the new job I might pursue in the future.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you sincerely for presenting an inspirational learning experience. I have discovered an incredible insight into the levels of service which raise ordinary service to extraordinary levels of excellence. I will seek to challenge myself at every turn and look for ways to become indispensable.
Thank you with great anticipation.
Dear Mr Williams,
I don’t have enough words to thank you for what you have shared with us over these 10 days. You are an amazing man and I will keep your words as a guide for the rest of my days in this great career of mine! Wish our path will cross again some day, until then I wish you the best and more.
My kindest regards

Today is a very good day. I am very glad to meet you and your team. I have never imagined that butlers work could be so interesting and useful, what did you show to us and talk about I will do it every day. You showed me you should love what you do and of course have passion in your work.

Dear Mr Williams,
My apologies for my disappearance in the past few months. I have been very busy with learning a new job.
I don’t know if you heard any news of me but, after my internship,in November, offered me by the British butler Institute, I succeeded in finding a position as butler at the Lanesborough in London.
The job has been very demanding till now but every single day I’m understanding how to become better and learning new skills as well.
For this, i have to thank you, the Institute, Stathis for the dedication at my case and the teaching that helped me to move forward.
I won’t stop looking how to become better to arrived at the idea of the butler that you set in our mind, during the days of the training.
I would like to ask you how are you, now.
How the training of new students is continuing and if it keep you busy, as I remember.
On my side, I give you my assistance whenever you need positive background of the TBBI, for future students as well to speak with them, in case they may looking for working opportunities.
Thank you again for all your help. Kind regards,
