“I have learnt a lot in English because English Class provides us with IELTS material and things that we couldn’t get from tutors or high school. I think foundation courses are really useful to make us really understand what university will be like. I think studying with ONCAMPUS has helped make me more mature and prepared before going to university.”
“I chose to study with ONCAMPUS Reading because the quality of education is better in the UK then what is available in my home country, and reading has good art facilities and teachers. Reading is a comfortable city to study in, as it is small ad quiet which makes it good for students.”
“I decided to study at Reading because it introduces you to a number of art and design topics, and then lets you choose which one you want to study at university. This is good as it allows you to try different areas of art to see what you enjoy, and are good at. The foundation course also introduces us to project work, which is good as I feel more prepared for university.”
“It was quite challenging. But I have met some great people, friends and teachers, who I will keep in touch with after completing the course. I am really progressed, I feel like I can do much more then when I arrived and I am prepared for university.”
