I went to Petroc as it’s closest to where I live and had the course that I wanted to do. Also my friends went there and seemed to enjoy it a lot – that encouraged me more to apply.

A highlight of the course is that everytime I’m in college we cook; and cooking is fun!

In the future, I would love to go into full-time work where I have my apprenticeship, or start my own business at home. I prefer the desserts side of cooking, so I would like to work in that side of the industry.

My advice for anyone thinking of taking this course is to just go for it, it’s a load of fun, as you’re learning a lot at the same time too, plus you get to eat the food you cook!
