This is my last year of travel and tourism L3. I would like to thank 2 teachers that helped me a lot during these past 2 years.
Thank you Roisin Brennan and Catherine Anderson. They have helped me with everything and always showed support during the hard times (pandemic, online class). It was very hard having online class, it was hard to concentrate, to get the work done in time and it was also hard to stay motivated, but with these 2 teachers it just seemed that everything was much easier!
Thank You, I will miss you 2 so much.
Hopefully we will meet again in the Lisbon Airport! :)

A massive thank you to all the tutors for all the hard work and effort they put in supporting us all. I could not of got through this year without their help. Sarah you where such a great support to me this year and really helped me power on. I didn't think i would like psychology but i absolutely loved your class, your a fantastic teacher! Monica you are just superwoman!!! You are truly inspiring and thankyou so much for all you taught us. Please relax over the summer! Nathan you are brilliant, coming in half way through and taking over a class run by your mother and dealing with my whacky questions. You did really well and really helped me through the last part of the year, thank you! Samantha the skills you taught me have done wonders in all my classes, my writing skills in general where awful and your techniques really helped so much. I'm disappointed not to have study skills next year, your class was really enjoyable. Alan thank you for refreshing my maths skills and making it a enjoyable class. Can't say I'm any better at ICT but you definitely gave it a good try, me and computers just aren't friends! To everyone in the Newcastle campus thank you and see you next year!

Think I speak for my whole class when I say, Debs is one of the nicest people to walk the earth; she goes above and beyond for us all & we are beyond lucky to have her as our main tutor!! Devastating that our time with her is coming to end, but forever grateful for the support, advice and help she has given us not just in terms of the course but also in terms of confidence, happiness and friendship. Not to mention, she has sparked a greater love for science in all of us! Especially, organic chemistry and the all round remarkable element, that is Carbon🙈 She truly is the best, and we all will miss her dearly.

I'd like to thank Ian Thompson and Ruth Doherty for all their hard work this year!

So, thank you guys both very much, you're both a real credit to SERC!

to Sarah Collyer, Steven lee and Lucy Bailie,

a thank you won't be enough to express how grateful I am to be in your classes. when joining at the start of this year I was a nervous wreck and was afraid of not understanding anything or making friends but once I joined I realised how welcoming all of the teachers and other students are. this year has pushed me in ways I can't describe but I'm so appreciative for it. you all have treated us with such care and it makes me so happy I am able to come to any of you with any problems or queries I have. I am so comfortable talking to all you which I wasn't able to in my old school. thank you so so so sos so much very excited for you all to still be my teachers next year (and hopefully HND so you can't get rid of me that easily loll)

love you loads

What can I say? I can't believe first year of access is finished. I'd like to thank all of my tutors for making the dreaded return to education fun and enjoyable. Monica, Patricia and Sara have been amazing and I couldn't have gotten through this year without them, they had so much faith in me throughout my time at serc and through the recent exams even when I didn't have faith in myself. They pushed me to push myself and would go above and beyond, they also supported me with achieving goals outside of tech. I'm sure you'll be glad to turn the teams notifications off and get a break 😂
I have to give an extra special shout out to Monica who's been not only my tutor but my cheerleader, you're such an amazing person and certainly don't get enough credit!
A big thank you to Ursula and her fantastic team in the crèche for looking after my little rascal and being so accommodating.
