Hello everyone. My name is Nick Kenney and I live down in sunny Southend on sea, Essex. I am trained as an Architect and have my own practice down here designing building for the future. I have a fascination in science, in particular, the mechanics of the universe so am starting gently with S177. It would be good to chat with any fellow S177ers or other in a similar field.

Hi
I'm Yahia Asrawi, my friends call me Yahi.
I study English Literature in Arab Open University "AOU", Jordan branch, we study the same Open University courses, so "AOU" certified from "OU", and I think thats great to us to study at these courses, also the cost not high at all, so every body got the chance to get a BA degree, Thanks OU :)
I decide to study English literature because I wanna contribute in teaching the English to the people that don't have the chance to learn it, by volunteering way, and to make the English more global language, so in some day everyone in the whole world can comunicate in English, which I think it will help also in making the world more peaceful.
Thanks.
Have a nice day.

Jessica Williams - Thu, 09/05/2013 - 20:42
Hello I'm Jessica, I've actually been studying with the OU now for a number of years and only just got round to joining up here! I am doing BSc in natural sciences. I am doing this last year intensively to finish up, so four modules this year. I hope to go on to study conservation as an MSc and then from there, who knows what happens next!
I live in a village in Cornwall called Calstock with my other half, but I've moved all over the place and am originally from Preston in Lancashire. I love running, I did my first marathon last year and am running a half this year and hopefully my first ultra next year. I also enjoy cycling. I have two bunny rabbits who keep me company when I am studying and often climb onto my keyboard!!!

Hello everyone. I'm Yvonne, from Nottingham and a busy stay at home mum to our four children. I am going to be starting my degree in October - Criminology and Psychological Studies. Am very excited to get started with it but at the same time feeling slightly apprehensive that I am going to struggle working my time for studying around the kids. I'm determined I can and will manage it though, it 's time for me to do something for me and hopefully build a better future for our children. I've not studied since leaving school in 2000 though so it might take a while to get the old cogs whirring again! Would love to hear from other people on the same course x

Hi Everyone,
I'm Natalie and in October I'll be starting 'TU100 My Digital Life' as my first module towards a BSc (Honours) Computing & I.T. & a second subject (Solutions Development & Design) degree.
20 years old and living in Gibraltar which means I'll be studying long distance. I was starting to regret not going to University two years ago when I had the chance so I decided to apply through Open Uni as they had loads of courses to choose from! The Pre-Entry-Advice team were really helpful too in helping me find a course as close to my chosen career path as possible.
I'm hoping to become a Software/Application Developer someday after completing my studies.
Good Luck all!
Nats.

Hello,
My name is Marie-Claire and I'm a student of advancing years, (21 & a bit, we just never discuss the increasing size of 'the bit'), who works full time in education and is a single mum to two (pretty fantastic) teenage girls. I'm enrolled with the aim of gaining BA English Lang & Lit. I'm a passionate bibliophile and work in an English department in one of the largest secondary schools in the UK

It's been a tough road, getting to the start point for starting this degree, but I'm determined to do it, and do it well! I work over forty hours per week at school and have 'Mum' duties but am sure, with some strict time management, I'll manage the study - I never thought I'd be so grateful for insomnia! I've started ploughing through Doctor Faustus in preparation for the AA100 starting and so far, so good. I'm based in Dorset for anyone who's interested/local. Happy studying one and all!
