What our students say

Kenny – Chia Heng Chok

"The support from lecturers was above and beyond."

I feel really supported by my lecturers and they are always there to give me guidance. I have had lots more support with writing my dissertation than some of my friends studying at other universities.

We can communicate with teachers and get help from them at any time. I like that my classmates are very friendly and we can help each other. I also think that the tutors are very good because they are so helpful.
