History and English Literature, BA Hons FullTime
The module options for both History and English are varied, but I feel a little more variety would be helpful. I found myself picking some modules because I had no other option rather than for feeling passionate about it. The trips and experience we’ve gained are second to none. Some teachers feel a little unapproachable but the majority go above and beyond and you can really feel their passion for their job. I’ve loved my experience so far. read more
