Lewis Butler

“I have learnt so much on this course already, it is brilliant! The modules cover such a wide range of subjects which helps you can decide what career path you would like to go down. We recently had an Events, Media & Marketing module which was very interesting and something that I wasn’t aware was a career option until then.

“The main reason I decided to stay at Middlesbrough College instead of going to university elsewhere was because I could not find another course that compared to this one.

“It’s fantastic to have the facilities we do right on our doorstep and I’m saving so much money by staying at home to study.

“Once I graduate, I won’t just have my degree qualification, but I will also come away with a range of coaching badges. Each student on the course receives £500 funding towards this, I currently have Level 2 Basketball and Football under my belt.

“My career goals are to continue with my coaching and to get into teaching to inspire the next generation.”
