Learner Comment:
"When I started the Sound Production & Music Performance course I hadn't a clue about anything, couldn't play an instrument and had no experience in anything with music but now I'm playing bass and have a huge interest in playing and recording music. Never thought I'd be going to college in my life but music has changed that. Joining the course was the best decision I ever made" Reece
