鈥淎fter researching more into sport I decided that it would be great for me because I have a very keen interest in sport and my hobbies are all sport related. I have decided I definitely want to progress further with 天美视频 and study Sport to the highest level I can achieve.

The lessons are a mix of theory and practical, we also have the chance to play sports and sometimes the lecturers join in with us. The Sport lecturers push us to achieve our full potential and everyone on the course is friendly and help each other out.鈥�

鈥淭he main reason for choosing聽Sport was my love of football. From studying the course, I have now gained a wider knowledge on physiology, met a variety of different people and improved my English, as well as my overall confidence. When I first arrived at 天美视频, my confidence was low, as my main concern was about speaking and talking to people in English, but from being at College my confidence is now a lot higher. My course is studied over three days a week, so with my free time I use this to attend extra English lessons.

The sport lecturers are really nice, friendly and are always here to help. I have regular one-to-one meetings with my tutor, who updates me regularly on how I am progressing and how to improve further. If I don鈥檛 understand something, I鈥檓 now not afraid to ask.鈥�
