Great course.
The course was amazing and easy to understand.
The course and the college in general were user friendly a part from a few small hitches, while first accessing the site I got lost and had to call the college on separate occasions to assist with navigating the site but then got used to it and could do it on my own. I have to say the staff at the college at the other end of the phone are very friendly and helpful, and the phone is answered promptly you don’t have to wait for those annoying answering machines. and both my tutors were amazing whenever I had a question or needed guidance, they were there to offer it, responded to my emails whenever I emailed them. thank you so very much for the good job you are doing.
It is an interesting course to pursue and the thing the excites me the most, its my tutor’s quick response to assignments feedback.
The course is very informative and clear to understand.
Good tutor very helpful fast response to assignments and queries.
