Nick, a physiotherapy student from Singapore, shares his experience of choosing Teesside University, arriving on campus and adapting to life in the UK. He first learned about the university through his education agent and considered Teesside one of the more straightforward and suitable options available to him.

His experience has been positive in terms of teaching, campus navigation and student support.

Why He Chose Teesside University

Nick discovered Teesside University through his education agent. After considering several university options, Teesside stood out as one of the clearer and more suitable choices for him.

This helped him make the decision to begin his studies in the UK.

Why Physiotherapy?

Nick chose physiotherapy because he enjoys helping other people. He explains that supporting others gives him a strong sense of pride and fulfilment.

The subject therefore connects closely with both his personal interests and future career goals.

First Impressions of the University

Nick had a positive first impression when he arrived at Teesside University. He found the campus relatively easy to navigate, with buildings clearly located and positioned close to one another. Security staff, campus maps and the university app also help students find their way around.

Getting Around Campus

The close location of university buildings makes moving around campus convenient. Nick explains that travelling from one building to another does not take very long. This can make the campus easier to understand, particularly for students who are new to the university.

Lecturers and Academic Experience

Nick speaks positively about the lecturers at Teesside University. He feels that students are taken seriously and supported throughout their studies.

In his view, the education provides good value and reflects the investment students make in their degree.

Student Services and Support

Student services have played an important role in Nick’s experience. He describes the support as very strong, particularly when asking questions and learning how to adapt to a new country.

The university has helped him with:

•⁠  ⁠Answering questions

•⁠  ⁠Understanding university processes

•⁠  ⁠Settling into a new environment

•⁠  ⁠Adjusting to student life in the UK

Adapting to a New Country

Moving to a country he had never lived in before required a period of adjustment. Nick explains that the guidance he received from the university helped make that process easier.

His experience highlights how important student support can be for international students beginning their studies abroad.

Nick’s experience at Teesside University reflects a positive combination of academic support, accessible campus facilities and student services. Studying physiotherapy, receiving guidance from lecturers and getting help with settling into the UK have all contributed to his university experience.

He also says that he would recommend Teesside University to other students.
