Educational psychology- rewarding but demanding

Studying Educational Psychology at the University of Calabar has been a fulfilling experience. The lecturers are knowledgeable and committed to their students’ success, and the course content is very relevant to real-life applications in education. I particularly enjoyed how the programme combines theory with practical approaches to understanding human learning and behavior. On the downside, administrative processes can sometimes be slow, and facilities like libraries and internet access could be improved. The workload is also quite demanding, but it pushes you to stay disciplined. Overall, I would recommend this programme to anyone passionate about psychology and education. It’s not always easy, but the knowledge and skills gained are worth it.

If you love medicine you will do it anyway!

Honestly, my love for medicine is what keeps me here. Going to a school in a different country you have to adapt to different customs and ways of doing things which is very different to how things are run in my home country. My issue with this school is the organisation, sometimes classes overlap, sometimes exams overlap with classes and students have to sort this out themselves, which should not be happening. Timetabling and exams shouldn't be the students' responsibility medicine are stressful as it is. As I said this is how things are run in this country.

My Experience At Arthur Jarvis

I have been a student of Arthur Jarvis University for close to a year,I transferred from a public University down here cause of all the drawbacks our public education system has. So my few months in this new environment hasn't been as great as I thought it would,the education and teaching is really top tier but where the school fails to impress is lack of other means of entertainment for her students,there's literally nothing else to do rather than sports in the evenings,no events of any kind and a lot of restrictions. It makes staying on campus really boring and tiring. Hopefully things would change in the nearest future.

Teaching

This university has high standard lecturers/professors who have passion in teaching. They teach and carry all students along irrespective of your capacity or zeal in studies. I would like to recommend this school to students who want to come out doing well in life and feeling proud about their school.
