Student Profile Mari Lois Williams

Primary Education

"I had 3 very happy years in Bangor. My favourite thing about the course was the annual learning experiences in schools where we fostered 'real' learning experiences in the classroom. I was very fortunate to have 3 supportive schools which established a very solid foundation for our learning journey. Being able to study together with an enthusiastic crew was also a highlight of mine over the 3 years."
