What our past students said:
“I have improved now with the certificate I got, I even got promoted to the third level of my posistion.”
Mnqobi Ntuthuko Mhlongo
“I had a wonderful experience studying at A.O.Y. The fanatical support team was a great help – always made things easy with regards to the information and assignments. The lecturer was very passionate about helping me to be a life coach. Excellent experience overall”.
Thobisile Nwuno
“At first it was not really easy, I was really disappointed when my first assignment was not yet competent. I didn’t quit, because my student advisor/motivator, encouraged me not to lose hope. I submitted my assessment again, and I did well. I’m proud of myself and I can’t wait for the graduation.”
Makgotso Motlokoa
“It was great studying at AOY, plus the team was also supportive whenever I called…”
Mpho Mojaki
”I was fairly clueless of what I was getting myself into by agreeing to do correspondence studying. My fanatical support coach was very patient, supportive and encouraging even when I did not reach deadlines on time and on days when I wanted to give up, I was treated with respect and courtesy. The experience was overwhelmingly good. Thank you, Academy of York.”
Boitumelo Letlhake
“In my time with Academy of York, I have been more than impressed. When I needed feedback urgently on a query, AOY quickly emailed me back with an answer. I am grateful for all you have done and the great way I was treated.
Cathelene Barnard
“Studying with A.O.Y has been amazing, the study material is neatly printed and there was always someone available to assist immediately. The fanatical student support team is always willing to work and they go the extra mile by calling from time to time to check on you and remind you that they are always there for you”
Pulane Sello
“I have learnt to be patient and AOY have good people to communicate with. Instead of hard time, I found I was motivated while studying. It was hard but I would still recommend this school for the next coming years.”
Dorah Mmusi
“Academy of york is a blessing in disguise for me, and I studied Safety and Security Management as well as Health and Safety Representative. I have graduated on those courses and now I am a contract manager for TAKEALOT because of Academy of York.”
Sanny Modiba
“Study Material easy to understand. Everyone very helpful and friendly. Thank you!”
