PAST STUDENT TESTIMONIALS

I did the Graphic Design course last year and found it to be unbelievably helpful. I found the briefs very enjoyable and exciting, there was always so much room to do what I wanted. I massively improved my skills and it made me a lot more relaxed and confident going to study in college. I am now living in Liverpool studying Graphic Design and Illustration.
