Engaging and convenient online learning
I studied the MA online; I was in the first cohort to do so. I found the work fascinating, and the seminars and lectures were very interesting.
Each week, a new module would be released making it easy to plan your study time.
I loved doing the research dissertation at the end. I gained a distinction for it, which meant I achieved distinction overall for the whole MA.
On a personal level, I learned a lot about my capabilities as a student, which is something I had never considered before.
Life after ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½
Currently, I am doing a PhD course at University of Chester in Psychological Trauma. It will further my research which began on the course at ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½.
I have also been teaching at the local university and tutoring students on another course run by a private business.
I still run a counselling practice and specialise in working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
When I gain my PhD, I intend to write a book and continue lecturing and working with survivors.
