Meet Jyotsna
Jyotsna, 42, was a full-time mum when she studied the Education and Training Level 3 Award course at Hackney Campus. She is now a qualified teacher and says she is grateful to every member of staff at New City College because they all contributed in one way or another towards her achievement.
As an adult student, did you settle back into education easily?
The transition from being a full-time mother to being a student was not easy as it was 18 years since I last did any academic study! Before I enrolled on the course, so many thoughts were going through my mind such as, will I fit in, will I be able to complete the work, is this the right course for me… and so on! But I am so glad I did it. I met some great people and it has opened up so many opportunities for me.
Did the teachers help and support you when you needed it?
Yes – the teachers were all brilliant and very supportive. One, Mentesnot, was so patient with each and every student, motivating everyone to speak up and most importantly treating every student equally and fairly.
What did you find interesting and what did you learn on your course?
Everything about the course is interesting! The most interesting thing that I have learned though, is to be yourself no matter where you are starting from in life. The course guided me to rebuild myself by gaining self-confidence and to work on my strengths and weaknesses.
How did New City College help you?
NCC has a fantastic framework. The tutors were more like mentors to me and all the support staff were so welcoming and friendly, even people like the receptionists, serving assistants at the canteen, librarians and security staff. They all contributed towards my achievement.
What are your next steps?
New City College is a wonderful place to learn and achieve your desired results. I loved the college so much I have stayed here and I am now working as a teacher of ESOL and enjoying a career I have always dreamed of. I’m looking forward to taking every opportunity that comes along.
