Course materials were clear and understandable and extremely informative. I struggled a little with TMA initially as I had no idea how to present one or the format but once I asked for help I was given all the information i needed and continued confidently.

The content has been good but the instructions regarding the practice portfolios, assignments and the TMA were not always clear, there are some unclear elements regarding how to write the TMA and record the verbatim counselling session within the supporting documents. The TMA especially needed to be clearer as it's the first assignment that requires referencing, it's the longest piece of work and it's worth 100% of the course grade. A student login with the course would be useful so that online material is accessible. Being based in Vietnam has meant some of the indicative readings have been hard to get hold of, which potentially limits the wider reading aspect of the TMA.
Response : Hi Laura Thank you for taking the time to comment on your course. Generally I think you enjoyed it and learnt from the experience. I take on board your view of the TMA Guidelines and accessibility of materials in foreign countries. If you contact Alan he will send you a reader that would have helped and I will make sure all future students who need it will get it. If you take another course we will make sure you get access to another reader. I hope this is helpful. Simon Carr

Some of it was a bit dry - especially some of the longer units. We didnt have access to some of the course due to access limitations, but in general it was very good.
