“My tutor helps me if I don’t understand something and is really patient.”

Sam recently completed his New Zealand Certificate in Hospitality Level 2 at Workplace Development. Sam has a learning disability and found the tutors to be really supportive. They helped him work at his own pace, encouraged him and let him know that every question was a good one. The tutors were delighted for Sam when he graduated and he had already decided to progress to the Level 3 Certificate in Cookery.
