The tutors are attentive, willing to help, and deliver the material and undertake the work with enthusiasm and excellent communication skills. I feel that I am being educated, but also being taken care of. The staff are amazing - always smiling, willing to assist, and making time to stop and talk. The Pro Bono centre, the Debating Society and other extracurricular activities ensure that all students achieve their full potential, and are given access to a wide range of opportunities.”
