Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
My experience at Fife College has been amazing because I got support from the staff and classmates. We were all there to help each other. This year was different to me because my class was online through Microsoft Teams and it was a bit different for me as I am profoundly deaf. Looking forward to 4th year again!

Because of the COVID pandemic my classes have been both online and in campus known as blended learning. I don't mind staying at home doing it online but it would be better to be in college face to face with lecturers
