Monika Knieciunaite, Travel and Tourism BTEC National Diploma

“I finished my exams in Lithuania and discovered that further education in Lithuania was really expensive. I decided to come to the UK to discover a new culture and continue my studies.”

“I had a friend living in Bedford who told me that the College was one of the best around so I decided to enrol on a City & Guilds Introductory Diploma in Travel & Tourism, later that year I chose to brush up my English skills by studying on the English for Speakers of Other Languages course just for one, spring term., I love the course and the warm and welcoming environment of the College.”

“Next year I am looking to study on the BTEC National Diploma and then maybe go on to university – I’ve heard that Bedford College has really good links with the University of Bedfordshire which should be really helpful. Eventually I hope to work in the travel industry.”
