What is your favourite thing about Teddy Hall?

When living in the main College site I always found the location perfect, being so close to the bus stops and centre of town. The College is also so beautiful especially in November with the Oxmas decorations.

What do you like about the College’s site and location in Oxford?

It is so useful being nestled just behind the Oxford High Street. You are always to close to where you need to be, nothing is ever more than a 15 minute walk away.

Why did you choose to study your course?

Geography for me, is the way the world makes sense. It encapsulates everything I am curious about, both the physical processes that shape our human world, and the human processes that shape our cultures and society.

What do you enjoy most about studying your subject?

The way the course is shaped allows you to truly study your interests. The dissertation and fieldwork allow for so much choice in what you study and the department and tutors provide so much support with these projects as well. With Geography at Teddy, the opportunity to travel is amazing, this summer I will be travelling to the Amazon rainforest for my dissertation research, which will be an incredible experience.

What’s the best thing about living in Hall accommodation?

I love the spontaneous hangouts. By living in Hall accommodation, you are always close to your friends and people you know so you never feel alone and will always bump into someone to talk to or hangout with. The 24/7 library is also a massive plus.

What do you enjoy most about the food at Teddy Hall?

In true honesty the dessert options are always so delicious but the convenience of Hall food and the social time you get in the dining hall is also so nice.

What do you like most about the Hall’s library?

It being 24/7 is such a luxury, and the library team are also so lovely and will source any book that you need!

How has Teddy Hall supported or shaped your extra-curricular interests?

As I want to go into teaching, I have gained brilliant experience volunteering at the primary school the College is twinned with. I am also in the Teddy Hall Ice Hockey Team – A sport I had never tried before University and I now love.
