I was studying at Holmesglen TAFE, but I left it because of non flexible timings. You visit zoos, aquarium, yarra ranges beaches, festivals etc. Melbourne is very interesting place. Please don’t change your course, if you stick you one course no matter how bad it is, in the end the certificate that you get will be very helpful. Otherwise leaving and chaning course mid way wont give you any certificates.
I applied here to another institute through a consultancy agency but now after coming out of holmeglen I have realized that tafe education was the best. The agency in Melbourne changed my course to so private institute where the standard of education and classes were very low. I couldn’t tolerate after having been used to TAFE studies. I was asked to show my offer letter of another college to holmesglen to get release letter from holmesglen.
We have no scholarship opportunities.
I am studying Automotive engineering. And it is not very easy to study. We have 2-3 day classes but in that we are taught all at once in bulk, its very hard to recollect what we were taught at the end of the day. The teachers are nice but even they have to teach within a specific time limit and cover certain things in an amount of time.
We don’t have facilities. We don’t have clubs and societies. I am thinking of re-enrolling at Holmesglen TAFE. Earlier I left it because I did not get enough time to work because of TAFE classes but now, after joining private institutes I get enough time to work but not good education. I rent a shared room and it is very cheap but not much privacy as I am living with friends.
I don’t know if this will even help me in the future because frankly, I will have understood nothing. Things are taught too fast.
