The students
There's no way better to find out what something's like than listening to their experiences. Meet some real Open University students:
The Civil Servant
"It’s always advisable to turn up to tutorials. Find a good group of friends or other fellow students to work together and above all, sit back and enjoy it" - Georgia
The RAF Technician
"I enjoy what I’m learning in many ways. You couldn’t put in this much motivation unless you were enjoying it to be honest" - Hew
The Science Technician
"Active learning, for me is all about trying to make the best of your resources; get to know what resources are available and how to use them" - Samina
The Secretary
"When you get to your 50s there’s a tendency to think that it’s all downhill from now on and to actually find my brain stretched has been absolutely terrific" - Jill
The Porter
"It’s made me more rounded, a more complete person, it’s allowed me to take on new challenges; it’s changed the way I look at people." - Paul
