I studied English Literature and Language at Carmel College and I loved it! The subject tutors are so dedicated to ensuring you do your best and they provide all the necessary resources so you can succeed, there are amazing tutorial sessions and tutors that help you too!

Not to mention the teachers are so knowledgeable in other subject areas, they helped with applications for work experience opportunities and even my interview for the Cambridge foundation year!

I also enjoyed the enrichment opportunities provided such as the talks!

I really enjoyed my A level English Language and Literature course. The lessons always felt relaxed but I was still challenged.

My teacher gave me excellent feedback on my assignments so I was able to improve over the two years. As someone who’s usually quite quiet, I felt very comfortable contributing in these lessons as my opinion was always valued.

Without a doubt, my two years at Carmel have been the most transformative for me, both academically and in self confidence. My teachers have consistently supported and challenged me to become a better student and to trust my individual abilities. I can say for certain that would not have been able to stretch myself as much as I have without the dedication and support I’ve experienced here.

“I loved my time at Carmel! I have fond memories of my experiences there, the teaching was outstanding and my love for learning was fostered by my tutor and subject teachers alike. Carmel was a welcome and warm hub of learning and I felt prepared for my university degree after my time there.

“I am currently working as a media planning executive for the Promo Planning team at Sky in Osterly, London. I moved away to Lancaster University to study English Language and Literature (Placement Year). In my third year of study I moved to London to work as an on air intern at Hearst Networks EMEA. I currently sit in the Airtime team where I look at data and viewing trends to boost performance of TV promos and drive viewing for the business. I have worked here for around two months.”
