“Wonderful tutors, wonderful shows for all ages”

“I like the school”

“I want to start this review off by saying I will solely be reviewing my subject tutors in English lit, geography and biology as well as how I found the courses and the class environment. English lit is an extremely interesting and fun subject especially during class discussions, the environment in the class room is lovely and you don’t feel embarrassed if you don’t understand something, David is an excellent teacher, he is incredibly supportive particularly in his feedback and he explains the topic perfectly. David’s support has allowed me to develop my writing skills which has undoubtedly been valuable in other subjects such as geography. Geography has A LOT of case studies and facts you need to remember but it is an overall interesting and exciting topic that gives you a lot of insight on your environment, Tracy is wonderful, our class discussions are always interesting with her experiences and facts alongside her encouragement which has provided additional ideas I have used in exams and essays as well as day to day life. The environment in geography is comfortable allowing for the class to connect and allow ourselves to join in on discussions. Biology is an extremely hard subject particularly the exams, to study the subject you need to work hard and complete a lot of practice questions and past papers, Isobel is the perfect teacher for this sort of subject. I don’t want to diminish my science teachers in highschool but Isobel is the best science teacher I have ever had the honour to have. She is extremely kind, supportive and knowledgeable, she is excellent at teaching you difficult topics and if you don’t understand something she will go above and beyond to make time for you outside of class and provide you with A LOT of resources. My entire room is past biology papers and diagrams which actually helped a lot in my studies. The environment is amazing I have never felt more comfortable in a room with real animal bones in my life, and that is due to Isobels impact on the atmosphere I am going to miss all my classes but the friendships I have formed in biology in particular is something I will miss the most I cannot recommend a better teacher for the topic who, even in the middle of covid went one step further to pre record classes if video calls were unavailable. I am going to Plymouth to study geography and it is thanks to the teachers that I am able to remain passionate about my studies. I am hoping to take a another course in the future that may combine geography and biology such as zoology. I cannot speak for all students but my experience at this college has been wonderful due to the environment these teachers have created.”
