I have just completed my TQUK Level 4 HLTA qualification with The Learning College and I cannot fault my tutor Sheila she has been amazing throughout the whole process. Offering support whenever I needed it. I would happily choose The Learning College and Sheila for any future qualifications I want to pursue. Thank-you!.
I have just completed STLS Level 3 Award. My tutor was Sheila and she was absolutely brilliant, always easy to get hold of and so helpful. I found the course very informative and I like how the units and lessons were laid out. I would have no problem using them again.
Sharon was always very helpful if I had any questions, feedback was always good and very helpful to help me complete and resubmit my work.
I have had a brilliant experience on my course with Learning College. I completed the CACHE Level 3 Award in Childcare and Education (VRQ) course and I was initially a bit apprehensive about taking the online course. But, the videos in the field of qualification administration are excellently presented so that one can easily understand how to take the courses. Also my exam assessor, Sheila Green, was amazing in helping and supporting me throughout my course and was very quick to respond to any questions I had via email.
I have been studying with The Learning College since March 2022 and I have just completed my L3 Early Years course. I have had a great experience with any questions answered quickly. My tutor Linda was amazing and supported me in my studies every step of the way. I would fully recommend taking a course with them and would definitely do so again.
I am grateful for my time at The Learning College .The knowledge, skills, I have gained here. There was always someone willing to give a hand. I found the instructors and other staff members dedicated to helping students succeed and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking good quality education and a supportive learning environment. Thank to all The Learning College team for your commitment to education.
