New Year, New Opportunities at Bath College If you’re looking for a new way to challenge yourself in the new year take a look at Bath College’s Love2learn part-time leisure courses. It’s easy to add a course at Bath College to the top of your New Year’s resolutions list. You can visit our student advice centre, pick up a prospectus or visit our website where every course is listed. We provide a wide range of courses to make sure there’s something for everyone – from art and design, cookery, music and floristry to business, computing, property maintenance and pet care. You can choose from a five-week introduction to philosophy, practice your counselling skills or enrol on one of our popular digital marketing courses and learn how to boost your online presence. In January, we start our beginner’s courses in French, German, Spanish, Japanese and Italian. These courses are ideal if you have no previous language skills but want to be able to have a simple conversation. We’re also looking forward to welcoming students who’d like to study classical guitar. You don’t need to have any experience of playing the guitar and by the end of course you’ll have covered tuning, essential chords and picking techniques. For sewing fans, there’s a 10-week course where you can learn how to make Roman blinds and London blinds with a specialist tutor to guide you through measuring up, marking up and fitting. Or, if you haven’t used a sewing machine before, we have a new sewing skills course which will help you learn machine stitch skills and how to follow a pattern. If you’re looking to do up your house, you can learn more about this on a painting and decorating, or plastering course, at our Somer Valley Campus in Radstock. We hold a number of courses at our Somer Valley Campus, including a four-week motor vehicle maintenance course. This will teach people a range of basic skills, including removing a wheel if you get a flat tyre, inspecting brake discs, and checking tyre pressures. It’s perfect for young people starting to learn to drive and would also suit drivers who want to cut the cost of routine maintenance. Anna Dawson, Love2learn co-ordinator at Bath College, is looking forward to a new year and welcoming new and regular students. She said: “In 2016 we welcomed over 1500 students from all over the region who came to us looking to further their skills for work or leisure and we are expecting another busy year in 2017, so I would encourage people to sign up for courses as early as possible.” For more information on our courses and how to enrol visit www.bathcollege.ac.uk or call us on 01225 328720.
