Sophia explains what it’s been like for her studying English Literature at Chester.

How have you kept focused on your studies over the past years?
I have kept a diary to keep on top of all my deadlines and always meet with tutors to discuss essay ideas.

What for you is the most important aspect of studying English?
For me, having the chance to read such amazing books is one of the most important aspects. You also learn so many skills that many employers are looking for.

Have you found a good way to balance your studies with your social life?
Yes! I treat my weekdays as ‘Uni’ days – therefore I get up and either go to the Library or work from home Monday to Friday, and then I socialise at the weekends.

What’s been the best thing so far about being a student at Chester?
The small seminar groups! I’m lucky to have met amazing friends and tutors in all of my classes. I am so happy I picked Chester!
