| Introduction | Ever since my high school days in Angola I have always wanted to study a course related with media communications at university, and I’ve been delighted to have had the opportunity to study Public Relations at Leeds Met. I chose to study PR at Leeds Met after finding out about its highly regarded PR course, including its strong ranking and reputation as one of the best in Europe. One of the most important aspects about my experience of studying in the UK is the study skills and independence I have gained. I have gained a whole new mind-set. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to learn so many new cultures and the way of life of the English people. Studying in the UK has also enabled me to meet and make so many friends from different parts of the world who have made my time at Leeds Met so enjoyable. I have been able to gain so many new skills and admire various teaching styles which is a vital element for any student who wants to progress. One thing I really found challenging was managing my time for my studies, juggling it with my young family and needing to do paid work. |
