This has filled me with the confidence to study biology at a higher level - Chris Finch
My experience with the DistanceLearningCentre.com was not only extremely rewarding but it also made me realize my potential.
After spending 11 years in an unfulfilling career I made a radical change in my life and traveled to China to work as an English teacher. I soon fell in love with teaching and decided that on my return I would do anything to become a teacher in the UK. I aspired to teach biology which I have always found fascinating, however felt that my limited formal education in this area would be huge hurdle to overcome. Nevertheless, I chose the Access to HE Diploma in Science covering Biology, Physics and Psychology.
One year later I am proud to say that I achieved Distinction grades in every graded unit throughout the course! This has filled me with the confidence to study biology at a higher level and my grades have given me the opportunity to apply to the highest ranking universities in the country.
All my tutors were extremely well informed, supportive and helpful. I also feel that the way the materials are written and presented is brilliant. Each module is clear, precise and packed full of information that does not seem intimidating at all. I would highly recommend that anyone considering enrolling on a Access to HE course chooses DistanceLearningCentre.com. (Jun 16)
Whilst there are deadlines to meet you can work at your own pace - Stephanie Grundy
Fab5 Award Nominee
Knowing I needed to complete an Access Course to chase my dreams, my original plan was to go to college in the evenings to study a health course. I experienced many closed doors and negativity from those establishments telling me I would not succeed when working full time. This is when I approached DistanceLearningCentre.com and I have never looked back. It was daunting at first to know I would not study in the conventional classroom way with other students; however, the support I have received from my tutors and the forums has outweighed any of my previous college experiences.
Completing a course like this on-line requires motivation, commitment and the desire to succeed, as you are in charge of your own workload. Whilst there are deadlines to meet you can work at your own pace and enjoy the flexibility it brings.
Throughout my time studying with DistanceLearningCentre.com I have gained and strengthened so many skills ranging from time management and organisation to research and academic writing. It has been a challenge whilst having a job alongside but it has opened my eyes as to what can be achieved when you set your mind to something. I have gained so much confidence, realised I can be successful and have become an independent student which I feel is vital for university.
I would like to thank DistanceLearningCentre.com for this opportunity and to my tutors for the support and assistance in reaching my goals and preparing me for the next stage of my journey. I couldn't have done it without you. Reach for the stars and you will catch them. I can finally say ... "I'm going to be a student midwife". (Jun 16)
