INDIVIDUALS

“At first it was difficult, I felt like a stranger in a new town but after a while I felt very comfortable. It is very easy to talk to all of the teachers”

“The staff members are all very busy but they care about the little things. The students are the number one priority.”

“It is a very innovative partnership. We can learn from Scotland where they have done such a good job in Diabetes care. We can really help the Kuwaiti population.”

“Some of my friends have asked me if they should do this course or not. I told them to go ahead - it’s not just gaining the skills but it’s about feeling more confident and having the ability to write, to express my feelings.”

“Reflection was a new thing for me. It was really very interesting. I told my friend – you will not just learn about diabetes but your personality will grow too.”
