I AM writing in response to the letter from the 'Angry mature student' published in your newspaper on August 25, complaining about Mid Cheshire College.

I too am a mature student and have taken several courses at the college over the past four years - but my experience has been the exact opposite of your original correspondent.

All members of staff have been hard-working and extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them.

The courses have been interesting and as I learned how to use a computer through the teaching of the college staff I am able to send you this message via e-mail.

I cannot sing the praises of the college high enough - it is a resource within our community which deserves to be highly valued.
