“I chose to study at MidKent College because I live ten miles away so it is nice and local and because it’s a good college.

I would say my maths has developed the most - with the help of the lecturers my maths skills are almost at degree level.

I am a manager at UK Power Networks Electricity so I am in charge of a group of people. I don’t really do a lot of maths at work, as of yet, which is kind of why I have to get this degree to then go a bit higher.

It’s a nice course to do one day a week as long as you have a basic understanding of maths. That can be hard but you’re doing this to better yourself so it’s not going to be easy otherwise you wouldn’t be doing it.”
