What makes BGU such a great place to study is how close and friendly everyone is, you aren't just another face in the crowd.
When I lost my hearing during first year, I was bordering on dropping out of my course; BG instead put measures in place to support me and brought me my first set of hearing aids.

our course is a mixture of online learning, face to face lectures and teacher training placements.
Lots of universities advertise a supportive, welcoming community, but BGU actually deliver on this. They really focus on you as an individual and give you all the support you need. My academic tutor is also brilliant. I never really understood academic writing until I started this programme. Now I'm achieving much higher grades than I ever did.
If I'm forced to write anything negative/constructive, I'd make extend the size of the canteen as it can get pretty full at lunchtime.

I love BGU because it is so small and has such a community feel. You are a person that everyone knows not just a number. There is so much support and social events that are not based around drinking and the bar as well.

The lecturers will always take time to explain. The course is interesting and in person sessions are very practical, often involving using resources that would be found in a primary school. Sessions that cannot be made practical are taught online ( very few) so you can listen in comfortable surroundings.

Wickham hall
The halls have en suite and lots of storage. Having only 6 in a flat to share a kitchen makes it a lot more friendly
