Very helpful and supportive throughout the year - Letesha Roberts-Edwards
I was in a place where I was ready to kick-start my career in becoming a midwife, but because I'm employed I could not study Access to Midwifery at a college, this is when I came across DistanceLearningCentre.com who were very helpful and supportive throughout the year.
My ambitions were to complete my Diploma and start the Degree the following year, but now that I have finished, instead of going to University I will be following a different path that will also lead me towards my goal. (Jun 2017)
By completing this Diploma, my academic skills have improved enormously - Sergio Falero Fernandez
Fab5 Award Nominee
Originally from Seville in Spain I decided to move to the UK 5 years ago when I was made redundant in my job as camera man. When I arrived I realised that my English was not as good as I thought and I didn't get a job as a camera man for 3 years which was very disappointing. I had 2 options - either go home to Spain or try to re-train. I researched a degree in Diagnostic Radiography and this is when I applied for my Access Diploma (Health Professions).
By completing this Diploma, my academic skills have improved enormously. This was a very good starting point for my first year at University. My two tutors were very helpful always answering my questions through email or phone call tutorials. They provided feedback to me to help structure my work but more importantly, they challenged me to do better in my assignments.
DistanceLearningCentre.com has allowed me to develop my skills in time management and independent thinking - both of which are essential for studying at University. Also, thanks to the Diploma I have a good base knowledge of science which is directly related to my chosen degree. I genuinely believe my tutors were excellent; knowledgeable, thorough and constantly driving me forward to be better. Without their feedback and guidance, I do not think I would have excelled in receiving all Distinctions in my assignments. (Jun 2017)
I achieved grades above my individual expectations due to the support I was given - Jasmine Johnson
Fab5 Award Nominee
I started the Access to Midwifery with little to no confidence and never dreamed that I would achieve the grades I did. I was an interior designer and owned my own company that I had lost the passion for. I wanted a job that was more fulfilling, meaningful and that served a purpose! I was very much coming out of a nasty spell of postnatal depression with my second child and this course enabled me to gain the confidence I had lost!
My tutors never failed to be understanding of my situation. Both my tutors gave me guidance and were empathetic toward the circumstance around my studies. They encouraged me above and beyond, and this is why I feel I pushed forth! Besides the postnatal depression that occurred very late postnatally I acquired a new addition that was born prematurely whilst on the course. My tutors swiftly replied my emails when I would email them from hospital on countless occasions within my pregnancy.
I found strength within the vulnerability of my postnatal depression. I feel my tutors support inspired me to follow my dream. You can follow yours! If I can do it, you can! Finding a fulfilling career is finding the courage to pursue your passion. My tutors encouraged me to do this and helped me along my journey of becoming a student midwife. I can't thank my tutors enough for their encouragement!
I am extremely grateful for having had the opportunity to do my Access to Midwifery within the comfort of my own home and at my own pace. I achieved grades above my individual expectations due to the support I was given. I'm currently preparing to apply to university for my dream career and DistanceLearningCentre.com helped me get here! (Jun 2017)
