I can't fault my personal tutor at all, and most of my module tutors have been great. Value for money is lacking though because as a wholistic package, anything beyond the quality of teaching and tutors is far below the standard I expected read more

While I personally find the film aspects dis interesting, the English course is stellar and I would not want to put a lower score because of that. Very modern modules that are just as relevant as they are interesting. read more

The content itself is very interesting and is well geared towards future job prospects in the creative industries - however the support for students is not there. You can understand as it's a very new course that a lot of the lecturers, seminar-leaders and office leads are figuring out how to best give feedback, structure the readings etc, however so far it's been very lacking, especially with the strikes (there have been no lectures uploaded from previous years even though the content is there). The feedback is also very basic and there is no sense of real criticism. read more
