Default who;s done distance learnig/recommend me...

hello

Looking at doing A Levels.....From home

Been looking at the various companies that provide such course's, yet everytime I find one who I think id be happy learning with, I do a google review search and its mostly poor reviews.

So apart from J2uk, (as his distance learning is pretty specialist to a given career), has anyone here taken A levels via distance learning and have any recommendations on who to go with?

Thanks for any input

Dappa

Local colleges tend to do evening classes - one night a week and rest at home etc. Not quite distance learning but best of both worlds and generally pretty heavily subsidised. Depends on the college but I believe most of them do "normal" A-Levels as well as the more far out ones (A-Level in Macaroni Pictures anyone?)

have now thanks mate...no luck....id love to do it with a college but from i can see im gonna have to do it with a distance learning provider...not ideal as they all seem to be pretty useless for support..but...as long as i pass then i can then go ahead and get a degree with a proper university so it would have served its purpose

i did Open University couple of years ago and found them good and helpful. Tutorials were held monthly but I never managed to get to any. Had one point of contact by email who was fantastic and replied quickly
