“I recently completed the West Midlands Metro course at City of Wolverhampton College. At first, I found the first couple of days overwhelming as I tried to take in so many new skills. I spoke to my tutor, who encouraged me to keep going and give myself a real chance.
“Each day, I motivated myself to show up, put in the effort, and study at home. As the course progressed, I started to feel more positive, hopeful, and confident—especially as the final tests approached.
“I completed all of the assessments and felt I’d done well, though I knew there was still room for improvement. The very next day, I got a call with some amazing news: I’d passed, and Midland Metro were offering me a job!
“It just goes to show—hard work really does pay off. Keep believing in yourself, don’t give up, and make the most of every opportunity to learn.
“A big thank you to City of Wolverhampton College for giving me this incredible opportunity!”
