13 www.preston.ac.uk I was quite apprehensive about starting the Level 2 AAT Accounting course as it had been 10 years since I completed my degree. I also wasn’t sure how I would cope with the exams due to anxiety. My tutor Kaye was outstanding. She helped me to achieve so much more than I expected and I successfully passed the course with a distinction grade. I have since progressed onto the AAT Accounting Level 3 Advanced Diploma. I am hoping to start my own bookkeeping business later this year, using the skills and knowledge I have acquired during my time at Preston College. It just goes to show what you can accomplish with hard work and excellent teaching! JENNIFER AAT ACCOUNTING LEVEL 2 & LEVEL 3 With ambitions of studying on a Personal Training programme, Adrian, who is a national bodybuilding champion in his home country of Romania, joined the Entry 2 ESOL programme at Preston College to develop his written and spoken English skills. Having travelled globally as a body building competitor, Adrian was keen to undertake a classroom/gym based fitness programme rather than an online course and began to search for appropriate study. Realising that set levels of English were required, to ensure successful completion of the written parts of the fitness programme, Adrian decided to join the Entry 2 ESOL course at Preston College to develop his English abilities. He is hopeful that the course will provide a stepping stone onto a Personal Training programme and ultimately, his dream career. ADRIAN ESOL As an already trained make-up artist at Preston College, Bhagyalakshmi has always had an interest in hair and beauty, and wanted to level up her hairdressing skills, as well as increase her confidence especially when doing hair up styles. As a learner at Preston College for a number of years, and having completed a number of courses including English Functional Skills, GCSE maths, various beauty courses, Bhagyalakshmi is now completing the Level 2 Hairdressing course. The course has not only increased Bhagyalakshmi’s confidence in hairdressing skills, it has also helped her understand the basics of what it takes to be a good hairdresser, and in the future she plans to own her own salon and provide clients a full range of hair and beauty services through to Bridal/Party make-up.
