“By creating we think, by living we learn” Patrick Geddes

“For the first three years I was doing the odd module but I got into the rhythm of studying and, six years ago I decided I wanted to do a degree and really picked up the pace. I’m passionate about the idea of lifelong learning, and I want to keep going and do more modules.”
