Oxford Learning College

It was a really good course and i enjoyed it, one thing i found a bit confusing is extra topics. Overall I would still recommend it.

I did the course on schedule and I have nothing bad to say about the way the course was done really.

A fantastic course which I have enjoyed thoroughly. Well done to the team and thanks for all your hard efforts.

Biology A level (Fast Track)
I'm so disappointed with what I (didn't) receive for my money with this course.
Maybe I've been spoiled in the past by The Open University, but at nearly £400 for what is essentially a pretty crappy book, I honestly feel sick.
My expectations for that money would be:
A course plan. I needed to know how much study I should be doing each week. I asked my tutor for this, and was told that they didn't make one for Fast Track courses (surely, with limited time, this is exactly the sort of resource that should be provided!).
Better course materials. The 'book' is crap. It is badly written, waffles about less important facts and skips over other bits. The actual way it is laid out is really cumbersome and impossible to bookmark or flick through quickly. It is a super boring format with a few pictures (all from Wikipedia), that do nothing to explain any of the topics. I very quickly realised that buying the official textbook and revision guide is the only way to learn anything.
Past papers. You have to pay extra to get past papers here. Yes, there are a couple of TMAs, but these are badly formatted and short. It would be far more useful to have actual Edexcel past paper questions as the TMAs.
Revision. There are no summaries, no key points, no revision pages in the long-winded book. No little questions, no keywords, nothing that will get you thinking at the end of each topic.
Practicals. Most at home students will not actually get the practical endorsement, but as there are many exam questions on techniques, I actually think that it would be essential to make simple videos showing the course practicals.
Communication. I actually didn't use my tutor, as it was easier to just go online for help when I needed it. However, my lowest expectation would be maybe an email halfway through asking how I was getting on, and a note to say good luck with your exams! Got absolutely nothing. I am genuinely gobsmacked that I didn't even get an automated good luck email...
Basically, I feel embarrassed that I trusted them and gave them so much money. Totally scammed is the only way to describe how I feel.

That was my review regarding the Oxford and Diploma
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi all,
This is my 1st review, but i will be always with you from now.
Firstly, i will introduce myself, I am Shady Negm, Egyptian Dentist. I searched a lot over the internet to study about infection control, and finally i found the course which i needed at oxfordcollege.ac
I contact the customer services and asked them how can i enroll the course as it was my 1st time to deal with them, They were very helpful and helped me to successively complete the registration and the payment.
The 2nd thing i need to tell you guys that the curriculum of the diploma which i took were very effective and i really gain a lot of benefits from it and starting to do and perform all what i learnt from the course.
Regarding the exam, i will tell you my experience which i gained:
The exam was very difficult. If you want to pass it with a good grade, so you should study hard unit by unit and answer the SAP, Don't be lazy!
I just take the online exam of Oxford college's infection control diploma,
As i told you the exam was very difficult and i passed it by a miracle,
It was my 1st time to sweet like a torrent, i don't know why! But it may be because this is my 1st time to take such an online exam.
I satisfied but not a hundred percentage satisfaction because it was my hoping to pass by it without any mistakes. I got a Merit grade, so It's good by the way. Anyway, it was a good experience and i am happy to pass it, Thanks for oxford team and customer service. Thanks all people contribute in such a good work.

Finally i need to say: i am happy because i study with Oxford college Distance learning center, the course is effective but need more and more study. I am happy because i learned more than i know.
I suggest you all to start studying with Oxford now,
If anyone needs help so don't hesitate to contact me.

Good bye All :)

It's not the website, its more the way they work, very poor service, I would ot recommend after I did a Diploma, means nothing

Since I've been on this course I have been generally unsatisfied with the standard of support. Whenever I asked my tutor a question, I always get the impression that I am disturbing her. Her answer is short without hardly any in-depth descriptions that would help and support me with my queries. She doesn't teach me anything.

Also, there is no relationship between tutor and student. My tutor cannot be bothered to address me by my name, half of the time, when she emailed me, I find this extremely disrespectful. She will never even say, "Hi (name), I hope that you are well." The other thing is when I submit my work, she never acknowledges the fact that she has received my work. I submitted my Unit 2 assignments on Monday the 29/01/19, and I didn't hear anything back until I sent her an email 15 days later. Even after emailing her, it was the student services who got in touch with me and told me that the document that I sent was a blank document. This was obviously a huge lie when I submitted my work; I went on to check several times if my coursework was adequately submitted and it was. So, not only I have been lied to that the document that I have sent was blank, but also shouldn't my tutor have the common decency to tell me that my work document is blank?
I am an independent student, and I have completed, a distance learning, access course to a very high standard and my former tutors all had one thing in common, and that was their love for teaching. So, I do know how distance learning is supposed to operate.
With Oxford college campus, there is a considerable lack of consideration for students. The cost of the course is expensive, while the standard is next to none. Here are a few factors where I believed they are lacking;
1) First and foremost, I don't think Oxford learning college care about their students at all.
2)Students don't receive a weekly email from their tutors and see how they are getting on.
3) They aren't allowed to receive a weekly phone call, to support students on things that need advice.
4) Students and tutors don't have a forum where they can talk to each other. Even traditional colleges have forums for students. Inclusion is essential for everyone, but the Oxford learning college promotes exclusions.
5)Another thing that is absurd is the ridiculous website. I seriously, cannot believe whenever I need to submit my presentation, I need to send it to Student Services.
6) Individuals who study with Oxford learning college are nothing but a number.
7) Every single universities and college, that provide higher education courses, here in the United Kingdom, provide students with Turnitin accounts, for them to check their work for plagiarism and Oxford college doesn't offer such thing for their students.
If your future academic and career prospects mean a lot to you, do not even think about studying with them. You will regret it.

I believe that their 5 stars reviews are fake reviews that have been purchased online.
