I find the lectureres at Derby are all very friendly and approachable. The different teaching techniques within my course are great as it allows everyone to learn in different ways whether that being practical or academically. I feel the uni could improve by making the campus cafes etc more student friendly and cheaper as may students don’t have time to work outside of their courses meaning money is very tight

I find the lectureres at Derby are all very friendly and approachable. The different teaching techniques within my course are great as it allows everyone to learn in different ways whether that being practical or academically. I feel it could improve by providing more support and understanding to us first year students before going out on to placement. Whilst on placement I know myself and other students in my cohort have found things difficult to understand and trying to contact the uni and recieving an answer as soon as can be quite difficult.

The university isn’t local to me which is the only down side. Although it is easily accessible. The tutors are super helpful and some even get back to you within 24 hours of your query. The facilities are great, library is nice and spacious and easy to find books. The library option on blackboard is easy to use and are able to issue you a book quickly. The online library is also a great tool to use.

Some of the tutors make most of the notes on the power point and it would be nicer to do more practical clinical skills rather than a months worth
