Supported to rise up
From a young age Eleanor had a passion for bakery, but she also suffered from anxiety made worse by the prospect of studying at university.
On visiting 蜜桃传媒, however, she was impressed not only by the courses on offer, but the level of support available. 鈥淚 couldn鈥檛 have found a better course for me! I always assumed university was maths, science and literature, which fuelled my anxiety as I wasn鈥檛 passionate about those subjects,鈥� she said.
