Great experience in general, still things to improve.

I’m an undergraduate student of Applied Mathematics. After years on the campus, I’ve liked the facilities a lot, and I think they’re the best in the country. I’ve also liked the knowledge coverage that the studies offer on the subject. The help from the profs is mixed. Some are helpful and nice but many deliver an impersonal way of teaching so students are left filling their blanks by themselves. The organizing of exams could be better if students and profs could find the best dates on the calendar without making it every-day-examine sometimes which can be stressful. Finally, some of the first subjects that you have to take are very crowded and students tend to sit by the back without a seat or being left out.

Ying and Yang

The courses available and the method of delivery is really amazing. I love how the lecturers communicate and try their possible best to make you understand their viewpoint as as listen to yours. I also love the location of the university. It is located close to the city centre which offers a lot of fun activities because as much as I am a student, I need to blow off steam now and again and having various ways to do this is amazing.

Excellent Value for Money MA TESOL

I did a lot of research before landing on ACG as my choice to do an MA TESOL programme. Firstly, I found the course very good value for money, especially as they offer the Trinity Cert embedded in the programme, a certificate which allows you to teach in most parts of the world. Secondly, I really appreciate the hybrid online
