Student Reviews
My experience in Leeds Beckett
Anonymous rated 5 out of 5 stars
my study experience at Leeds Beckett University is satisfying my degree helped me to gain new skills and improve my writing and speaking the communication with my tutors is really friendly and I enjoy my seminars because we share opinions and we dive deep in each week's topic and discussed it. I received great presentation skills and i learned how to be part of a team.
Only getting better with time
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
Overall, my experience at this university was a positive one. Help was always there if required and they offered a lot of opportunities to studies outside of the classroom, most recently offering abroad placements. Strong links to local organisations within the area provide a strong platform to students to be hired after graduation.
Not so bad
