University of Essex

Teaching English as a Foreign Language (Including Placement Year) - BA (Hons)

University rating (4)

Essex is a great place to study because the campus is beautiful, the atmosphere is welcoming, and there are many opportunities to meet new people and discover different cultures. The student facilities and social activities also make university life enjoyable. However, it could be improved by providing more affordable food options on campus, improving access to information about facilities and activities, and offering more common areas where students can relax and socialise.
