The career service is brilliant

Since the pandemic I have found that many lecturers have not taken teaching seriously. Many of the lectures were pre-recorded with very little interaction with the lecturers themselves. I filed a serious complaint against a lecturer and never received a response

The university have great facilities relevant to any course including camera equipment, a moot room, multiple libraries which are all accessible.

If you reach out to the support it is amazing although it can be difficult to get financial support

No

Online lectures and seminars are useful but do not feel that engaging as most students do not have their cameras on and only half of them tend to show up. Also haven’t had that much interaction with other people on the course.

John moores provide job fairs for students who do nursing, this is where numerous trusts come and give you details about current jobs they have coming up and how to apply. Lecturers are always happy to help with reference for job applications.

During COVID-19 the lectures have tried to make it as easy as possible for student nurses. They have become more available during assignments and other problems. They have also planned out all lectures online and made it easy for students to interact.

The university is well laid out for students. Staff are always happy to help out if a student is lost etc. Library services are great as well as they can help with assignments and finding books. Toilets and surroundings are always kept clean. Cleaners are always about and are great at their job. Plenty of computers and printers to use.

The university is great for a students wellbeing, they are always happy to help all it takes is an email. The university is fully accessible for disabled students, lifts etc. There is also support for students who have no money and need help.

We are constantly updated on graduate opportunities and there are sessions to prepare for leaving university. My own course offers various work related modules and constantly encourage us to start making contacts.

On normal circumstances, the course is predominantly face to face teaching. Lectures and workshops. Guest speakers. Really good fun and thoroughly enjoyable. During the pandemic the lecturers have done their very best to keep that atmosphere under very difficult circumstances. Circumstances beyond their control. I do not believe any university should be charging full fees for this period, not just LJMU. The extra costs due to the pandemic and lack of access to libraries etc means extra costs for the students. Buying books and supplies that they can normally use for free. My first year was fantastic and affordable however this year I am in debt and have struggled. The tutors have done all they can to help.

The facilities are great though the pandemic has limited use of them. I am really looking forward to the new Liverpool Life Building opening up when restrictions allow.

The student wellbeing team are very approachable and very helpful. The tutors will also do everything they can to support the students. Even the ladies in the coffee shop will lend an ear if you need it!

Yes

Not happened yet, only in foundation

Online, was blended teaching but professors have acclimated really well to the pandemic. I find difficulty reaching tutors sometimes and I wish I had more lessons. However, I think this foundation year has been very valuable towards my end goal.

When it was open it was good, I haven’t used anything this year

When you ask for help you usually receive it

No

It was taught face-to-face for the first two and a half years until the pandemic. It has since been online teaching only and I feel it has been handled well by the university and the individual lecturers.

Yes

Careers team are great with CV advice and mock interviews. Lots of online tools to practice job applications tests.

Engaging lectures. Experienced and supportive teaching staff.
