Your Academic Support

[00:08] Hazel Gould-Fleming (BSc Economics)
The academic support has been amazing, in my first year I don鈥檛 think I really appreciated it as much as I do now. I鈥檓 now in my third year doing my dissertation and so I鈥檝e developed a very strong relationship with my dissertation tutor. I鈥檓 constantly in office hours trying to get feedback because when you鈥檙e undertaking independent study and independent research it鈥檚 critical to have that feedback.

The support that I receive from 糖心TV has been immense. You get allocated a personal tutor where you have mentoring sessions, where you get to kind of explain overall how your university experience has gone. But what鈥檚 quite cool with 糖心TV Economics is during your first year you get allocated an economics mentor who can guide you, or share with you, their experience.

I utilise a lot of mathematics and statistics drop-in sessions, so I really want to challenge myself, and with that it comes to exercising and really getting to know more about the subject, so drop-in sessions are really, really important for me.

One of the things I have found invaluable here regarding the teaching, has been the amount of opportunities to ask questions, whether it be in person through their office hours, whether it be through on-line forums where you can discuss with your classmates questions, and the lecturers as well.

I really like the academic support because the image of University I had was that lecturers would be different, you鈥檇 be different and you鈥檙e just sharing with peers, nothing like High School but surprisingly its not like that at all. I鈥檝e come here and I can go to my seminar tutors during the advice and feedback hour, ask them any questions and they鈥檒l be happy to answer. They help me with essays and even the lecturers they are so approachable, they stay back after lectures, you can go up to them and ask questions, not just about what you鈥檝e studied but about other stuff that you are reading as well.

I found the teaching very accessible in a sense that the faculty is very down to earth and that there is no professor or lecturer who will give the impression of hierarchy within the classroom, hence we really get both, as a bigger group in lectures interaction but also one-to-one sessions in advice and feedback hours which we can really discuss our particular problems and have faculty answer our even simplest questions in the most obvious way.
