I'm only a first year student but I've really enjoyed my time at the HU so far. The teachers are very dedicated to their jobs and their explanation of their subject is very clear. The HU is always open to feedback to better the studentexperience and i really appreciate this. The HU really feels like a community of it's own!

Education is very interactive. Teachers are open to feedback and apply it. The environment is very open and welcoming. Some Educators' level of English is below expectations (vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar issues).
