  • My tutor's comments are an enormous boost to me. I am truly enjoying the Life Coaching course, but the positive feedback is putting the icing on the cake! To start with, when I submitted an assignment or my exercises and notes I felt apprehension because I was sharing personal experiences with a stranger. However, the tutor responses have made me feel as though they understand and I now feel safe to share things. A correspondence course does not provide the conventional tutor / student relationship but from my perspective our relationship is as supportive as anyone would expect to receive from a tutor that they see on a regular basis.

  • I have enjoyed the researching into this course and much of it I felt was a revision from previous work. I have felt more confident within my counselling in school, bringing forward some areas that I feel I can now empathise with in a more realistic way. I found it difficult finding some information. Even though it took a while to register searching websites and books from the library as I felt it wasn\'t as readily available. I found all correspondence very quick throughout completing my work. Thank you for that. I am now searching for what to do next! Thank you.
