Middlesbrough College stood out to me when looking towards the next step as there is everything you could need under one roof.

I've dreamt of becoming a PE teacher for years, and the Sport & Exercise Science course has been a great stepping stone for helping me to get there. 

We cover a mix of practical and theory work which keeps things really interesting. From sports massage and fitness testing to psychology and injuries I'm learning something new every week! Enrichment is also a major part of the course - so far we've been to the likes of Barcelona, Rome and Xscape in Yorkshire!

The tutors are also so supportive; I currently work part-time as a lifeguard and am often out for work experience, but they are always understanding when it comes to me fitting both in around my studies.

I'm from Guisborough but there are buses that drop you off on campus every 10 minutes so getting to college has been really easy! 

I'd definitely recommend coming to Middlesbrough College!
