I think I said this last time - the course text was basically good but, in my opinion, needs re-editing to improve consistency and remove repetitions and Increase clarity.Response : Thank you for your feedback Jane.

I found the pdf files difficult to follow and therefore ordered the paper files. I think the course would benefit from the materials being more interactive. For example, you watch a mentoring/coaching interaction video rather than read a transcript. This also helps to consider non-verbal communication and use of self commonly discussed in the modules.Response : Hello Jodi, thank you for your feedback. we will take your feedback into consideration for future course updates.

i live and work in an area where it is quite difficult to access to public libraries and good resources including books therefore i believe more of material including notes should be offeredResponse : Thank you for your feedback Rafia we will look into this when applying future updates to our courses.

I thought it was a great cross section. I think in this day and age there was too much on Christian focused pastoral care. I believe that pastoral care is important but it needs to show more diversity.

The course content and materials are helpful. Some links are unable to access.

generally good but was wondering if it can be compacted a bit .

The content has been good but the instructions regarding the practice portfolios, assignments and the TMA were not always clear, there are some unclear elements regarding how to write the TMA and record the verbatim counselling session within the supporting documents. The TMA especially needed to be clearer as it's the first assignment that requires referencing, it's the longest piece of work and it's worth 100% of the course grade. A student login with the course would be useful so that online material is accessible. Being based in Vietnam has meant some of the indicative readings have been hard to get hold of, which potentially limits the wider reading aspect of the TMA.Response : Hi Laura Thank you for taking the time to comment on your course. Generally I think you enjoyed it and learnt from the experience. I take on board your view of the TMA Guidelines and accessibility of materials in foreign countries. If you contact Alan he will send you a reader that would have helped and I will make sure all future students who need it will get it. If you take another course we will make sure you get access to another reader. I hope this is helpful. Simon Carr

Detailed information on theories and models but again I would have liked more practical help in a clinical practice setting.

Some of it was a bit dry - especially some of the longer units. We didnt have access to some of the course due to access limitations, but in general it was very good.
