The initial registration with reception and the induction chat with my lovely first tutor melted all my concerns - Hanna Kovats
My journey with distance education started two years ago, when I felt that dental nursing was limiting my abilities, and I wanted to achieve more in life. Coming from Hungary made it impossible to use my earlier grades for university applications, so I had to find a plan B to get the needed grades while keeping up my job.
After long and thorough research, I found Distancelearningcentre.com and frankly the testimonials turned the corner for me to sign up, a decision I will never regret!
Distancelearningcentre.com lived up to its reputation; the initial registration with reception and the induction chat with my lovely first tutor melted all my concerns. The road was rough, and I shed a fair number of tears while doing my psychology course. English being my second language made it harder to understand academic literature and produce an a-level standard essay. The learning curve was steep, but my tutor was super encouraging, gently guiding me in the right direction through our tutorial calls, emails, and assessment feedbacks. When I started my biology subject, I already knew the drill.
My second tutor was as positive and encouraging as my first tutor, and was by my side all the way through, whenever I needed help. The materials were well constructed, covering all the needed information relevant to the exams, and offered tons of extra research sites to widen my knowledge and dig deep into the topic, which I found helpful.
The distance learning approach works; however, sacrifice, diligence, and hard work cannot be spared to achieve results. Alongside the good grades my greatest reward was to see my academic improvement through the course and to become more confident in my abilities. (July 2021)
DistanceLearningCentre.com are there to educate, motivate and commend you throughout your journey - Natalie Denham
As a mature student with PTSD, the main symptoms being anxiety and panic disorder, teamed with juggling family obligations, I had many factors against me throughout my studies. Naturally, I had a few reservations about whether or not it would be possible to complete the course; let alone apply to university. My ultimate goal was to start a career in Biomedical Science, with a view to eventually complete a Masters and PhD in Immunology - an area of keen interest.
It wasn't long into my search for providers that I found DistanceLearningCentre.com who put me at ease by informing me that, in addition to the course, they also assist students with their university applications through UCAS. I liaised with prospective universities about my options with DistanceLearningCentre.com, and after some very careful consideration, I gleefully embarked on my chosen Access to HE Science course.
DistanceLearningCentre.com were more than accommodating from the outset and throughout, with regular check-ins from the student support team regarding my mental health and wellbeing, moreover they hand-picked each of my tutors based on my needs and individual learning style; I felt supported, valued and empowered.
The main takeaway from my time with DistanceLearningCentre.com would be that you are capable of more than you think. As someone who was an average student throughout school and a self-confessed procrastinator, I managed to astound myself by achieving numerous Distinctions; even during times of adversity. I'm delighted to announce that I am set to start my Biomedical Science degree later this year, and it wouldn't have been possible without the contributions from DistanceLearningCentre.com.
The key thing is to avoid competing with, or comparing yourself to, anyone else and their personal timeline. I was reminded by one of my tutors that I am the only person with my unique life experience, my individual perspective on my chosen subject, and my particular skill set, and that is invaluable to future employers. When you decide that you are ready to take that all-important next step in your career, DistanceLearningCentre.com are there to educate, motivate and commend you throughout your journey. (July 2021)
DistanceLearningCentre.com tutors and staff have been fantastic in helping me achieve the grades I need - Aaliya Mahmood
Prior to starting my Diploma, I was working for the Ambulance Service as a 111 Health Advisor and PTS Call Handler. I'd always wanted to become a paramedic but didn't have the right qualifications.
That's when I enrolled on the Access to Paramedicine Course. I wanted to work towards meeting the entry requirements for a Paramedic Science degree, which is what I have done ... 400 days later!
DistanceLearningCentre.com tutors and staff have been fantastic in helping me achieve the grades I need, as well as any other situations I needed support with. I applied to 2 universities and have received conditional offers from both.
My first choice was University of Huddersfield, a brand-new course starting in September. I have achieved more credits that the offer requires, it wouldn't have been possible without DistanceLearningCentre.com. (July 2021)
This course helped me solidify my career choice and get rid of the fear - Giulia Zanardini
I moved to the UK when I was 16 to pursue my dream. I finished college, got a degree and completed a masters degree, but halfway through my education journey, I started to realise that the dream I had started with was changing, and that scared me. I thought I was too far along to change my mind. I decided to take a year off to think things through and I decided to jump headfirst into my fear and take a chance at following my passions.
After I found out about DistanceLearningCentre.com my decision was solidified: the modules sounded so interesting and very much what I wanted to study. They lived up to my expectations. The course is amazing, it creates the perfect balance between independent learning (for example by giving the student the task of deciding their own deadlines), and support (with tutorials every week). This course helped me solidify my career choice and get rid of the fear and I feel more confident than ever in my decision to change direction.
I want to thank every tutor that helped me throughout this journey and a special thanks to my tutor who was also there when I started to receive acceptance and rejection letters from universities. (July 2021)
Incredibly helpful in selecting the best course that would satisfy the entry requirements of my preferred Universities - Adam Spreadbury-Maher
After a wonderful 15-year career working as an international Theatre and Opera director, I decided during the Pandemic that I was ready for a "second chapter" to my professional life. Once I decided that I would pursue my life-long dream of becoming a Veterinarian I began researching the route to get this qualification. I found that many UK universities accepted the Access to Higher Education Diploma. The team at DistanceLearningCentre.com were incredibly helpful in selecting the best course that would satisfy the entry requirements of my preferred universities.
From that point onwards I felt supported as I worked through Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Psychology. There were moments when I felt overwhelmed, but always supported. I knew the academic demands of Veterinary Medicine university admission would be hard for me, though with hard work, dedication, and support from my lovely tutors and fellow students, I finished the course with straight distinction grades. I am now looking forward to accepting my offer to study Veterinary Medicine at the University of Bristol in the autumn. I'm so happy that I didn't let go of my childhood dreams, and I want to reassure anyone thinking of trying something new, it is possible, and you can change your life and direction. Thank you, DistanceLearningCentre.com! (July 2021)
