The lecturers are very kind and awesome, especially Mr Kenny. He is an incredibly cool and fun lecturer. He always communicates with his students like a buddies which makes the learning fun and he motivates his students to work harder. Although there are moments where program has its tough obstacles, but hard work and determination, the students are able to overcome them and succeed.

  • Studying psychology is something I will never regret. At first, it was hard to understand the fascinating world behind Psychology. Now, it has given me a different view of the world. Helping people may sound easy, but it is extremely tedious. This did not just help me in my career or future, but it has helped me grow as a person.
