Why did you chose to come to 麻豆国产精品?
My older brother came here so it seemed like the closest and best option as he loved it and the experience

What made you choose your course?
I was doing a course before and it wasn’t for me. However, I had a passion for midwifery and decided to go with my gut. I was told about T Levels and as soon as I heard about placements that sealed the deal!

What did you most enjoy about studying at 麻豆国产精品?
I most enjoyed the placements and getting the whole work experience, over 300 hrs in a work environment which you don’t get on any other course

Do you have any future plans?
I have got a place at the University of South Wales, studying a foundation course in Community Health and Wellbeing, which is a stepping stone course to Midwifery. This would then lead me on to become a midwife.

Any advice for someone choosing the same course as you?
Take in all of it, everything is so important, especially with placements, and ask as many questions as you can. You might find one placement you aren’t keen on, but keep your options open. T Levels are fantastic – my whole group has done amazingly!
