Student Voice

    “ESOL at Leeds City College is great for my future because it’s like a stepping stone to a lifetime of rewards. It also builds a bridge to gaining a successful career.

    Having good English shows I can communicate well. Knowledge is the key and once you have it no one can take it away from you.”
