6 TRENDING NOW FITNESSU STUDENTS SPEAK! I cannot express enough how much I have valued the mentoring sessions. It should be something that all students do. I have felt completely supported by the coordinators and lecturers throughout my studies and have been grateful for the feedback for all my assessments, but the one on one sessions with Marg has just provided me with that extra opportunity to further enhance my knowledge and skills. STEPH B (WA) I had my first mentoring session with Marg yesterday. I would like to thank fitnessu for developing this program and so happy that I took up the opportunity to participate. She made me feel comfortable from the start and was happy to share her knowledge and expertise. I'm really excited for our next session when we are working on Personal Programming. I would really recommend this to all students studying PT online. STEPH C (WA) Thank you for your time and effort for my situation. I appreciate the support and I have spoken to my Pro-Trainer to reiterate the necessity for me to have her expertise in order for me to succeed in the course. Without your effort, Tyson s patience and Leanne (Pro- Trainer) encouragement I may not succeed as far as I could go. Thank you once again. JAMIE A (VIC) A shout out of thanks to Support at Fitness U. I am currently jumping some personal hurdles at the moment which have my hands full and am planning to suspend my studies for a short spell. Having dealt with admin before in other organisations, I must say I am pleasantly surprised at the promptness of replies, the quick advice, expedient solutions and the kindness expressed. Thank you. SORCHA M (SA) So far, I've found the course materials and structure to be helpful. Even though it's largely a self-paced online program, I've had the support that I've needed throughout. EISHA.
