What our Students Say
“I really enjoyed the course Holly was kind, patient, engaging and thorough. Really appreciate the creche facilities and cannot stress highly enough that without that help and funding I would not have been able to study the course to help me change careers. Holly has been quick with feedback, encouraging and gave good constructive feedback on how to improve the work. I will miss coming to her classes and really appreciate the extra help that new Directions College has delivered in enabling parents to be able to study and help with the financial burden.”
