I chose to study with Online Business School because it was very convenient for me, and the cost was just right. It fitted right into my busy schedule.
The experience was amazing. It did not feel overwhelming or burdensome.
What I like the most about the course with Online Business School is that it was structured properly and the assignment examples which were presented to guide me on this journey. The course was structured to ensure that it contained both theory and practical. Having the theoretical aspect really prepared me for the practical aspect of teaching.
My advice for current or prospective students is to always go for your dreams despite the hurdles along the way. You are not starting too late. Now is the appointed time. You are able.
I chose to study with Online Business School because the path to a degree through them was so much cheaper and quicker than studying at university for the full years.
The thing I liked most about studying with OBS is probably the price or possibly the student community. Highly recommend finding WhatsApp groups in the forums to chat with fellow students and get advice, tips and general help for studying.
My plans now, as I’ve completed my Level 4 and Level 5, I want to pursue my final year at university to obtain a degree or look into completing a Level 6 in the same field.
