I had always considered myself an introverted person before university. However, through studying here I have been able to develop my interpersonal skills that are required in any role in life. Whether it is through presentations in class, joining debates or partaking in sport – Coventry University has allowed me to become a version of myself that I didn’t even think was possible. But the best thing is that I am inspired to continue trying to push even further beyond.
