The Student Support Centre tuition

Advantages: Might help some children over a short period
Disadvantages: Very expensive; parents tied into agreement;; very short trial period

...selling the teaching product he brought out the credit agreement which I signed. I have to say that, looking back, I was mesmerised. I had no strong idea that I was tying myself into a credit agreement which involved a payment of over £2000 over a period of 36 months and without a proper trial period. I used the tuition occasionally for about six months. There is a telephone tutor available but only for emergencies. The work is done by the parents at home. The Maths and English repeat what is done at school.I had to give up on it after six months because my son did not find it useful. But I still have to pay the full amount. I think it might be useful to some students but probably only in short bursts. Tutors in the area would be cheaper and more useful. I feel children do not learn very well from machines. There will be no warning...

Review of The Student Support Centre

The best music retailer in Hereford

Advantages: Convenient, excellent value for money, can haggle. friendly
Disadvantages: None

...I started using Nick Fisher about 10 years ago, based in Commercial Road in Hereford. It's a very friendly shop and music school selling musical instruments and accessories. The prices of instruments are very reasonable, I paid £400 for a Stratocaster that was £550 elsewhere, even off the internet. The Yamaha music school upstairs is excellent, from piano tuition to vocal lessons. I've found all the staff friendly and with reasonable rates. In recent months (late 2009) the shop has suffered with current economic climate, but is still trading, fortunately. The shop stocks guitars from beginners to advanced (£100 - £1500). A good choice of keyboards (mainly Yamaha) are avaliable to order or purchase from the shop. I have used all the music shops in Hereford, overall this one is the best. Highly recommended....

Kaspersky Internet Security - average protection

Advantages: Provides basic tools for anti virus, easy to install
Disadvantages: none really, just prefer AVG.

...As a university student we have to pay a rediculously high amount for tuition fee's so the college I am doing my foundation degree in offers free laptops for the duration of the course. The laptop comes fully equipped with Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 and it really does the job. Most anti virus software is available for free with the opportunity to upgrade however it is worth it from a business perspective, to buy something like this. Kaspersky - available from http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/kis25orkav30?THRU&reseller=43021&gclid=COjpgZPllp4CFVtn4wod6BIzlw - is a security software which provides anti virus protection and identity theft protection. I often purchase things online and I, like anybody, have downloaded applications. Loosing work for university would be incredibly frustrating so I am pleased with the protection available...

Northumbria Uni Services Review

Advantages: reasonable tuition fees and students from different cultures and background
Disadvantages: communication with staff in case of requesting info and poor management of finance dept

...It's a reputable modernised university as well as the university's ranking is acceptable. The university is multi-cultural and it has lots of international students. It offers different courses with reasonal tuition fees. It offers student loans for UK resident students and student discounts for international students. The library facilites is quite useful and it is available 24/7 so it is very convenient for students. Most of the staff are friendly and helpfulf but I have some experiences of lacking communication among staff and sometimes, no one informs anything about canceling the class to students. The worst experiences I had there was with finance department. The finance department asked me and 3 other friends tuition fees again wrongly. Along my study period there, although lecturers seem friendly and helpful, they hardly...

Sessions school of Design

Advantages: Convienence of distance learning. Some of the classes are great with inthusiastic instructors.
Disadvantages: sometimes takes a long time to get a response on questions. Some instructors don't pay attention

Review of Gilmore Girls - Season 1 (Box Set) (DVD)

Student funding in the UK

Advantages: n/a
Disadvantages: n/a

...Students reading this will probably agree with my very strongly held views of student funding and student debt. I'm in my third year as a student, and have at least two more years to go. Throughout my time so far as a student, I have experienced a farcical system of determining how much money students should receive. Firstly, a look at tuition fees. Scottish politicians recently came to their senses and actually scrapped these crazy payments students had to make in order to get an education. However, due to my position as a student who had to change courses, i'm being forced to pay tuition fees for 2 years. The other factor of course is that students in the rest of the UK still have to fork out money for fees. The government will tell you that these fee payments are means tested so students only pay what they can afford. However, in...

Say No To Master

Advantages: Exam is hard
Disadvantages: No coordination

...Well, if anyone want to pursue his or her Master in Engineering, do bother to choose Strathclyde. I was in the MAster in Power Engineering course. Eventhough, it is one of the biggest and top department in the whole UK, but top in what sense. It is only during the tough examination question that makes it the top Power engineering department. Apart from this, the structure of the course is poor, one will certainly miss 30% of the lectures due to cancelling of classes. In this course, there wouldn't be any seminar on the career prospect for student. The life here is you just pay the tuition fees, attend the lectures if there are any and sit for the exam. You fail the exam you are out. If you pass, then proceed to thesis. After that you just leave....

Bill and Teds Bogus Adventure - AWESOME MAN!

Advantages: Funny as Hell
Disadvantages: No special effects

...) and get back down to earth to save their girlfriends and manage to get to the battle of the bands! With a little help from two genius, monster things the awesome pair manage to get serious guitar tuition and nail the battle of the bands. With Bill and Ted on Guitar and the grim reeper on the drums this really is a hilarious movie. A twisted, yet funny story line and two great surfer dudes, this film musnt be missed. I would recommend watching Bill and Teds first film though. No major special effects but still a great film. RRP: £3 - £5 I enjoyed it. Not the best film in the world but its still great to watch after seeing Keanu Reeves in matrix. He goes from serious to "TOTALLY AWESOME DUDE!" GREAT! Thanks for reading Damien...
