all of the lecturers (bar one) are brilliant, and so are the personal tutors, I just wish that the course content was organised slightly better, I understand that we're supposed to be 'adults' but not giving us correct ways to access the course content in ways that are helpful is awful, this isn't the lecturers faults by any means, they've done the best they can with the tools they have been provided with. read more
