"I studied the Tourism and Tourism Certificate Level 3 and loved it. I feel like I have really learnt a lot from the course about the industry and the different jobs that are out there. Since being on the course learning about all the different jobs that there is and I am now going to be a travel agent. We have really supportive teachers. I am someone that struggles with dyslexia so there has been a lot of extra support for me from the teachers. We have a lot of our teaching resources online which is really nice because you can go after the lesson and read up on something you may not have understood properly. In class, it is a very supportive environment where you feel very welcome to ask questions which are answered really well. I feel like I have learned a lot and the lessons are always really engaging; it is never a boring time on the course and is definitely very enjoyable. We also do a lot of presentations on our course. There are lots of different types of presentations and written assignments which has helped me work on my confidence with public speaking. I now quite enjoy talking in front of people. I have learned a lot of customer service skills which I think is going to really help me in my future career as a travel agent with hopes to become a manager."Liv Legg
