Building Futures East

My confidence levels have really gone up since starting the course, as I have learnt more new skills, I've felt more confident within myself

I've been improving my English and maths since I've been here – I've just sat a mock GCSE maths test. I've been having tutored support in English for the past six weeks and have done a mock GCSE English test. I would say my writing's improved a lot – I know how to write letters to people and what to put in application forms now

Another member of the team will help you out until you get it right

Everyone gets stuck in if you need a hand

This is a nice and friendly environment in which to learn, the staff are very helpful and let you take things at your own pace

The place seems to have a good reputation amongst the school kids who are on the course, and they seem to be learning something here that they wouldn't be at school

We are taught in a professional environment by professionals – we are all willing to put that little bit more into our work because the teachers put a lot into the work as well
