Jade- Physics

What is your favourite thing about Teddy Hall?

My favourite thing about Teddy Hall is how friendly it is. It’s very easy to meet new people and the friends I’ve made here have made my time at university much more enjoyable.

Why did you choose to study your course?

I’ve always enjoyed maths and during my A Levels I was deciding between studying maths, physics or engineering. After exploring these options, I found that physics was the subject I felt the most passionate about. The balance of the theoretical concepts and experimental applications is why I ultimately choose it over other subjects.

What do you enjoy most about studying your subject?

One of the things I enjoy most about studying Physics is when different topics all link together to form a picture of the world around us or explain an interesting phenomenon. It’s very satisfying when concepts connect and all come together to solve a challenging problem.

How have your tutors supported you during your time at St Edmund Hall?

My tutors have been very supportive during my time here. During tutorials they help me better understand the content, and they are also supportive more broadly, such as offering advice and guidance when I’ve been struggling.

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

I enjoy the variety of the menu from week to week. The quality is pretty high for college food and having a range of cuisines rather than the same meals repeated every week makes a big difference too.

What has your experience of welfare support at the College been like?

Welfare support at Teddy has been great during my time here. The number of resources and easy access we have to support has really made an impact on my time here. Knowing that help and support was so readily available was very reassuring.
