They have drop-in sessions after every class, so if you don’t understand anything you always get support. I took advantage of these for my Maths module a lot, they give me such helpful tips…and I ended up with 90%! I was really happy about it. The staff make it more like home here and we’re supported like a family. If you need any academic help or if you're homesick you can go to them, they're more than willing to answer your problem.
