We are divided in groups of 14 and that feels like everyone's voice can be heard. People from around the world come to the university that is providing the chance of you meeting people from everywhere. The tutors are professionals and work in industry. This creates more of an industrial environmental and academic which gives you good practice.

Met film school provides outstanding facilities. They have state-of-the-art computers, editing rooms, disabled access, nice and clean toilets and a cafeteria. The classrooms are spacious and adapted to student work. They provide decent enough cameras for the students to work with, alongside with sound equipment and lights. They constantly update and renovates facilities to make sure they're at their best at all times.

Met film school offers goods supplied both academic and personal. They have posters around the school notifying people that are always there for you if you need to speak to someone. They have posters advertising groups about well-being. Tutors give really in depth and personal feedback and it feels like they care about the work that you do. Met film school have a promise where they will always support a student even after they graduate. So far I have been very satisfied by the support I've been given.

London is a big city compared to the town I come from and it could be disorientating for someone isn't used to living in such a big city. I personally live close to the university so I don't spend time and money on travelling. I only go into London when I need to do something like watch a film or buy some clothes. The place I live in Ealing is a far away from central London so I wouldn't know what the city life is like.

What I like most about my course is that there is enough time between the school years where we get to do our own thing. They teach us different types of media, content creation and genres of film. We go from short films, to documentaries, episodic content to feature films. The teachers are really helpful and I felt like I could rely on them. Met Film School provides independency but sometimes I feel it's a bit too much. My least favourite thing about it is the amount of money I need to spend outside of the yearly fees. It feels like they don't cover any of the practical work and I have to pay for projects I get marked on.

Met Film School provides a platform for students to be employed easier by sending out emails daily for job opportunities in the industry. They don't offer placements but they provide opportunities for the students to work within the school. They have an outreach program which is designed for alumni to talk about their experience attend events and earn money. They work closely with University of West London which have 95% of employment rate a year after graduation. They offer internships at the school and give everyone an equal opportunity.

University for me has been up and down like most people I presume. I left home at a later age so my attachment to home was stronger and the thought of leaving home was scary. But through the friends I've made and the city I live in it has made the transition so easy.

The cafe is good, it has been refurbished recently. The rooms are in dire need of sound proofing and modernisation. The kit room need more updated equipment and need to fix the equipment better as a lot of it is broken or simply does not work.

The tutors like I previously stated are kind and personable and approachable. They offer support and help when you need it and when you ask they help on jobs. Counselling has been a blessing I went through a very hard couple of years, and through counselling I have seen a way out of the dark and a way into a new way of thinking about myself

City life is good, lots of things to do and lots of things to see. Being from a seaside town, the city is dazzling and dull of magic

The course gave me the confidence to stand up for myself, the other students can be quite ego driven so you need a voice to be a contender. The bad thing I would possible say is that the courses can be very camera and less on sound and sound editing. Also the rooms are not sound proofed so filming exercises in class is difficult. The tutors are great, full of experience and are personable and are easier to go to and ask for help and advice.

MetFilm gives you the skills to get into the industry. However it would have been good is the university had am intern programme with Ealing Studios or with a studio in Central London, to work side by side with a professional and deepen the skills you already possess. MET staff are very friendly and down to earth and they state again and again that they will stay with their students and I have no doubts that is true.
