In my final year at City and Islington College I asked students past and present if they would leave testimonials on the 'Rate My Teacher' website. Below are their responses. To go to the site press the button below.
The videos were filmed over an evening to mark my leaving City and Islington College.
“Bernard is one of the most influential teachers in my life. It's because of him and his Politics Class in City and Islington that I went on to receive a First Class Honours in Goldsmiths and later secure a job in Parliament. His dedication and belief in students helped me build my academic confidence and abilities. He is patient, kind, passionate, and most importantly, has a genuine desire to see his students succeed. This shines forth in his teaching and I highly recommend him to anyone”.
“I was lucky enough to have Bernard as my course tutor this past year and he is without question the best teacher I have ever had. His knowledge of the subject, incredible passion, and unwavering support throughout, made the past year enjoyable rather than the burden I expected. He also had a great ability to put me at ease in a class, which I had initially felt I was out of my debt in having returned to study after almost 20 years. Thanks so much Bernard”!
“Bernard Tannett was my course tutor for Access to HE Humanities and Social Science for which I gained 42D, 12M and 6P. I am now an Undergrad at University College London. Bernard’s enthusiasm and knowledge of the subjects he teaches is highly conducive to learning. He is patient; explaining lucidly and monitoring progress. He is perceptive; encouraging lively debate yet skilfully steering away disruption. He motivates and nurtures a student’s potential. An excellent teacher. Highly recommended”
