I have fulfilled my dream upon achieving satisfactory academic results at HKU SPACE Community College. Teachers are very helpful and friendly. We share our difficulties with teachers during the consultation sessions. I would never forget the guidance that our lecturers have given to us during the 2 years study. The lecturer always gave us her valuable comments on our assignments and projects so that we could excel in our academics. In short, the friendly lecturers guided us to get to know more about the subject areas. Finally I have obtained excellent academic results and progressed to the University of Hong Kong.
