Latest Students Reviews

“Hello Wendy

Thank you very much. I found the course to be very good and the bite-sized nature of the videos to be very helpful (I would listen to them during my lunchtime). I'm probably not the usual/typical student, in that I am the CFO and Chief Operating Officer for an investment firm and was selected for CPD monitoring by a professional accounting institute, so I wanted to find something that could tangibly assist me in my work and potentially, whatever I decide to do once I hang up my calculator. I have had a fairly wide experience of HR matters (hence the drawing on experience for the earlier assignments) but never came too close to the actual legal document production (such as the claim letters). I do tend to put a lot into whatever I do and I have to say that the course was professionally very interesting and stimulating. I found that it actually took me away from the usual stresses associated with my day work to focus on something else. Analysing each situation played to one of my strengths and explaining things step-by-step as adviser rather than client was actually very satisfying. I did have to research answers and now, for example, I have a couple of medical texts on the shelves at home! I actually completed Assignment 12 when on vacation in China, and took everything along with me (ie previous answers etc that contained the facts of poor Mrs Jones's case) such was my eagerness!

Overall I am extremely pleased that I took the course. It is very good value and professionally very helpful from a wide variety of perspectives”

“I loved the course. I found it really helpful, and I loved that it challenged me. Having come from a criminal law background looking into other aspects of law has been a real eye opener.

Thanks so much for the help and advice.”

“Good morning!

I just wanted to thank you for the paralegal course. I don't have too long left now in module 3 and I'm still really enjoying it.

In fact, so much so that I've decided to go one step further and, partly due to this course, I've been accepted to the University of Essex Online uni to do the LLB (Hons) in Law with Criminology degree! I honestly think that without doing your course I never would have realised my potential or that I could ever dream of doing a law degree.

So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for a great and interesting course!

Regards”

Natasha

“This course is so enjoyable!

I was made redundant in November after 20 years in the same company and floundered for a while before I figured out my next move. In my old job I worked a lot with lawyers and was a compliance manager/regulator for broadcast content for a major TV broadcaster so thought I'd take my admin skills and my legal interest and combine them to try and change careers. Studying so late in life was hard at first but I'm on a roll now and will probably apply for the module 4 advanced course too once I've finished 1-3!

I'm really enjoying the course.

Thanks again .”

Natasha

“Thank you so much for all your help and wonderful tutoring. I have just received my Diploma and so proud.

I will probably be starting on Level 4 shortly - so will see you soon.”

I am spending the

Saturday morning

with my lecturer on

video lectures and I

MUST say that it is

an absolute

pleasure. Such a

delightful person and

the material SO well

represented. I

sincerely hope my

results will do justice

to the great level of

lecturing that I am

Yolande

“I feel a sense of pride having completed the Advanced Paralegal Diploma Course. Although challenging, it was certainly not insurmountable. I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge which has certainly prepared me to address a myriad of legal issues in the line of my day to day duties at the Bank. It has helped me to develop my analytical and research skills in preparation for advancing my career. I will recommend this course to anyone who is serious about

deepening their understanding in the roles and responsibilities in becoming a Paralegal expert.”

Rinay

“Today I received

my Diploma. I am

now a fully fledged

and qualified

Paralegal”

“I have been offered a position with a firm of Solicitors and I have given your details as a reference, I trust this is ok. I thoroughly enjoyed my study time with you and I feel that I would not be advancing my career without the knowledge that I gleaned from you and your courses.”

Julie

“I belong to a developing country of Pakistan. It was always my dream to get international certification in the field of Law from a

prestigious institution of United Kingdom which otherwise was not possible for me due to job engagement and family affairs. You

fulfilled my dream and I am feeling proud that I completed this course online under your kind supervision. This course has really given

me an in-depth understanding of the UK legal and justice system and it will definitely help me in my career as a legal professional. The

lessons delivered by you are really remarkable and easily understandable to international students. I wish you and your team

continued good luck.”

Vivian

“The Conveyancing qualificaton will significantly add to my Paralegal Repertoire.

The Distance Learning Course was well strucured and adapted to Home Study -particularly the Online Videos, which leaves me without any hesitation in recommending the Course and indeed the OTC to other fellow aspirants.

Kind regards.

“I have paid my course fees and the re-sit fee. I don't wish to make anymore payment as I do not have a job and can't afford anymore payment. I hope to pass all my exams this time around.

Kind regards.

“Hello Wendy

So sorry I forgot to tell you, I got a job in a law firm as a Legal Secretary. I basically do different things from typing, Immigration casework, attending court etc. It's in a law firm in Tottenham, North London. I would like to know when I will get my diploma, as I need to show to my Employers. Thank you for everything and hope to hear from you.

Kind regards.

Yemi”

“Wendy there is sadness in the air- because I am through with the Modules I wanted to take…. It was such a great pleasure to follow your lectures! I had a lot

of fun and I’ve learned a lot! I will add you on FB tonight and whenever you are in NL or even BE, drop me a line and I would be pleased to meet you. I am

Russian but have been living abroad for quite some time already. Germany, Brazil, Belgium and now Holland”

“I hope you are well. I have been working in conveyancing for 6 months now and I am really enjoying it”.

“I am so pleased that I finally found a job. It keeps my self esteem up and this type of position reminds me how lucky I am".

“I cant tell you how much I am enjoying this course. I just love it and sometimes its like Wendy is reading my mind!!!!!! I will be thinking

‘but why is.....’ and she will then say ‘you are probably thinking - but why is....’ I can’t praise this course highly enough”

“Loving the course, I did this at college 18 years ago and managed to give birth to my now 17year old son right near the end which stalled things a little to say the

least. I'm 45 years old and after a successful sales career and 3 children in total I've decided to come back to it.. Loved it then and still passionate.. Thank You.”

“This Paralegal Course is of higher quality than the legal studies I have done before, a few years ago, for Legal Executive Part 1 Year 2 at Exeter College. Impressive.”

“I commenced the Distance Learning, Paralegal Specialist Conveyancing Certificate Course, and have completed all the Lectures which I found to be very comprehensive, informative and one might say user-friendly”

"You were and still are, a massive inspiration to women."

“I can confirm that if we ever come to London, we shall make a point to see if we can meet you for a great coffee. Thank you for inspiring others within Law because, trust me, you are not a good teacher.. no...you are a great one!

“Dear Wendy, I have received my Diploma in the post today and i am over the moon. I would like to say a big thank you for all your support during the course

of my studies, you have been a great inspiration to me. The Lessons are very well presented and easy to understand and i have enjoyed every minute of it.

At the moment, i have some serious commitments but as soon as i have dealt with them i would like to pursue the advanced diploma. Thank you very much.”

“Hi Wendy

I just wanted to let you know that I got the job at Maples and Calder. My start date is June 1, 2010. Thank you for your assistance in completing the legal secretary programme.

All the best”

“This is a fantastic course I loved every second of it!

You are one of the best teachers I ever had. I never had any problems in understanding the topics and you were very helpful whenever I needed some guidance. I never studied law before and I am so glad my first try was through this course.

Thank you again Wendy.”

Pippa

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for such an informative and well structured course. I found this programme to be very, very useful to my every day job and duties within my work.

If your institution is planning to offer an upper level course to this programme, I will be very interested in learning more of such and probably consider taking such courses.

Many thanks for such a wonderful course.

Best wishes.”

“ I did a Paralegal Diploma with xxxxx. I completed approx. 30% of your module 1. I am not certain if it is of the same caliber as OTC paralegal diploma. My aim is to reach module 4 to be completely qualified…”

“Hi Wendy, I went through the first 4 video lessons of Module 1 of the Paralegal course. They are fantastic, easy to understand, clear concise and up to the point.

I love it so far.”

Hi OTC Team

“I have completed module 3 regarding Civil, Criminal and Matrimonial. I would like to thank you for your professionalism in course delivery and clarity of materials and recordings. Thanks again and I will be recommending your online course to my friends and family.

Regards.”

Clayton

“I think your Course has been fantastic! Before I started I really knew nothing. Module one gave me a very good base and now in Module two I can see how it works in practise. The best thing is that you have made me realise what an interesting subject law really is and how it affects our lives! I will be able to go back to my notes in the future, they are great! Add to that your good sense of humour. You have had me laughing on many occasions. Don't really want to finish Module two! My aim is to sit the mature entrance exam at the Law school in June (got a place in September if I make the test). I just want to continue study and see what happens”
