Liverpool Hope - Hope (reviews)

The university has great facilities and gives you opportunity to do a wide range of things. Teachers are highly qualified and they are worried about students learning. International staff helps you with anything you need. However, it could be more inclusive with international students.

Surrounding area is lovely and I had a great time with friends living in Aigburth but the lecturing (I was there for 4 years and so had many lecturers) are really quite bad. There are similar complaints amongst many of my colleagues in different departments in sport, business, and psychology. I cannot speak about other departments. Trying to get even rudimentary feedback through email or face to face was a complete no-no from many lecturers.

Another problem was that one lecturer had a good level of English but made so many mistakes it was often difficult to understand her point. More worrying were the all too frequent occasions when we questioned anything that we did understand she refused to give an answer and instead changed the topic. I understand that lecturers see themselves as researchers not teachers but a total of care (and sometimes a worrying lack of ability to answer questions) was very worrying.

Its a good university, lecturers are down to earth and willing to listen and work with you. Living on Aigburth campus is a pain due to terrible buses schedules. Living in Liverpool as a University city is great due to plenty being aimed at students.

love this uni its a beautiful setting and my tutors have been so supportive with helping me do my dissertation
the library is okay it could do with more spaces to study privately
food options are good but is expensive
resources are really good, there are careers advisors and library learners to help you improve writing
