“They were very kind and very willing to help. Whenever I had a doubt or an area I was weak in or wasn’t familiar with (math, programming, etc.), the lectures and instructors were willing to help until I understood the lesson. They were also super friendly and kind, which made learning more enjoyable. They always made sure we got the best out of the program.”

“We got to know about all the knowledge we need to have before we start our degree program and things like basic maths, computing and business. Most important thing was that they did sessions on engineering too by make us do a basic practical. The opportunities we got to do presentations were really important for us to step this university journey. And things like learning styles and referencing styles were really useful for our academic life. Thank you for this extremely important and free program.”
