Student with very steep learning curve

“Student with very steep learning curve”

Written on: 26/07/2012

I decided to do A Level Law, not having studied for over 30 years, really to keep my brain active and for a challenge. I enquired locally but there seemed very limited A Level Courses available, so I decided it would have to be by distance learning and found the Open Study College via an internet search. The price of the course seemed quite reasonable, well the reduced price that is. Enrolment was easy and problem free. However, I was slightly confused in that I enrolled with the Open Study College in Birmingham and then received an on-line login for my course from Oxford College, with no explanation of the connection between the two.
I obtained a paper copy of the course materials for ease of reference, although thought £65 a bit pricey for this.
I had a few queries about uploading assignments which were quickly answered and I like the idea of having an assigned Tutor should I really get stuck. I am enjoying it so far although its difficult.
