Student comments on our counselling courses

Receiving feedback from our students can offer us a fascinating insight into what people think of our courses.  It’s not just useful for ourselves though – many of those who are thinking of studying with us can gain the benefit of reading the feedback too.  It can help them decide which areas to choose and what they could do when they successfully complete their studies.

Carol Paul chose to study psychotherapy – which can be found in the counselling courses section of the website.  Carol chose this subject as ‘I am already a counsellor and wanted to continue into psychotherapy’.  She decided to study with BSY as ‘when I first started I was recovering from a serious accident so I could not return to my previous work, nor could I travel to study.  Home courses were convenient and BSY have a good range to choose from.’  Carol has been most happy with ‘the full range of content within the course material’.  The course may help her in the future to be ‘a fully educated psychotherapist with a wide knowledge, able to be really useful and helpful to my clients.’  To those thinking of studying with BSY, Carol said ‘I would suggest that they really give the BSY courses real consideration.  I feel that the BSY assignments are thorough and fully equal to any other.  Being able to do the assignments as and when you can is a real bonus as people have other calls on their time and the BSY never pesters anyone with deadlines or due dates, which makes the courses comfortable to do.’  Carol agrees that ‘BSY courses are excellent value for money’.

Louise Hartshorn decided to study herbalism (one of our complementary therapy courses).  Louise decided to take the course as ‘I’ve always been interested in herbalism and have used it for myself over the years, but I wanted to take this interest further.’  Louise decided to study with BSY because ‘the course was the best for me and I have many other commitments that required me to learn at distance’.  Thinking about her complementary therapy course, she has been most happy with ‘feeling my brain waking up’.  Louise said that the course may help her in the future ‘to continue with learning more and extending my knowledge into a profession’.  Louise agrees that ‘studying with BSY is convenient’ and that ‘the BSY course advisors are helpful’.
