What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

It’s an amazing place to study with tons of opportunities for students to thrive and learn, but the social aspect on UoN is sadly not there. A lot of people struggle to find anything fun to do here and about town as it’s a very quiet place full of mainly elderly.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

Everything about UoB is great! Especially being an international student, UoB has provided me with a sense of warmth and welcoming and has created an environment that feels like a home away from home. The exposure we have as university students to the field of careers is amazing. And the university also has an amazing careers connect team that provide one-to-one support from mock interviews to CV reviews. The academic faculty is filled with professors who are experts in their chosen fields.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

From my opinion I would say ARU is praised for its supportive staff, modern facilities, diverse community, and strong career services. However, areas for improvement include communication responsiveness, consistency in course delivery, better promotion of extracurricular activities, and some accommodation and facility concerns. Overall, it offers a positive student experience with room for enhancement in certain aspects.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

University of Hull has a beautiful and serene environment suitable for learning and even relaxing. The lecturers are very warm and receptive. Things that could be improved: student union (I don’t really see what they do, I’m sorry); the university should make arrangements with more landlords in order to make students living easier; Timetable should be more flexible (we asked for a change in my department but nothing was done)

Chi offers fantastic student support, from the feedback from lectures to the careers advisors. I always felt guided and supportive in my years at the university. There are multiple canteens offering a great selection of food to the students and staff. The library is very simple to work around and there is always a great amount of space to work either on your own or with a group of friends.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

From the excellent facilities to the strong support system and nature-driven environment, choosing Edge Hill University was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The experience has shaped my perspective and deepened my passion for innovation, which is a core aspect of my profession. Support was always within reach, and the quality of teaching made a lasting impact, fueling my enthusiasm for Android development. This, in turn, inspired me to start a product with a friend—one we hope to bring to the public in the coming years. The location isn't at the heart of the city, so commuting to school was a bit challenging for me.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

I've loved studying at the University of Plymouth so far! Staff are really friendly and have always been really happy to help. The SU is great for relaxing between lectures during the day as well as for clubbing on a Saturday night. I'm also really enjoying my course and Plymouth is in a great location to try out fieldwork in different habitats.

There is great support for students and facilities, especially for photography. I have been able to create high-quality prints and experiment with various cameras and lighting. As well as knowing that my lecturers are there to support me. The building is situated well in the centre of Cardiff, with it being very accessible to various student accommodations, shops, places to go out and transport links. However, the student union could host more events to bring students together even more.

What students say about literacy-and-special-needs-teaching

The community is very diverse and inclusive, you can find a lot of other people like you and get talking. Laptop borrowing, computer rooms, and lecture halls are useful and conducive to learning, and the professors want you to do your best and encourage you to achieve, giving good guidance as well. Student support can be hit or miss - I was not contacted by them in first year, and had to contact them myself so I could learn about what support they can offer me, but when the agreements are in place, they are quite good. Collegiate campus has amazing nature and building design, beautiful and on Ecclesall Road, and both campuses are easy to get to from the city centre. The Students' Union does not feel like it is part of the university - I have had little interaction with them, do not know the full extent of what they offer, and do not entirely know how they work, and so it does not seem like a top priority or the first thing one may think of when they think of Sheffield Hallam University. However, this is not the universal experience of the Union, and others may say differently. Overall, the university is rather good, and my experience is largely satisfactory.
