Student Testimonials

After successfully completing CI online course with Helena, I decided to do DPSI Law straight away as I really liked the way how the CI course was presented. I found all learning materials to be useful and easy to study. It helped me to understand better and in depth UK Law structure and how to create my own glossary that I’ve used to prep for the exams. Additional to main learning material there are lots of extra resources, links and videos for extra practicing.

As a result - I passed all 5 units of the DPSI Law exam in one go! The fact that I could do exams online directly with DPSI Online was absolute convenience for me and, I’m sure, for everyone who feels nervous during f2f exams or can’t travel to exam centres.

"I really enjoyed the online course. It was excellent.

This course gave me the chance to put what I have learned into practice with my tutor. Ivona was extremely motivating and encouraged me when learning and performing techniques, especially when I struggled with simultaneous interpreting. I started the course with 0 confidence, but Ivona was very supportive, I felt empowered and motivated throughout and confident to continue.

I would highly recommend her and this DPSI Law preparatory course! I successfully passed the Level 6 DPSI Law exam and that was an astonishing achievement for me.
Thank you Ivona and thank you DPSI Online! I will definitely be taking another online course from you!"

I am more than happy with the course and the support I have received. I truly believe DPSI Online is the best course provider. It is hard but at the end of the course, you know you are prepared and ready for your job assignments. My tutor Nina Boteva was absolutely amazing, She gave me lots of knowledge and support. I can not say thank you enough.

This is the second time I am choosing DPSI Online, and if I have to choose again I will choose DPSI Online again without a doubt.

Diyana DichevaDPSI Law Past Student - Language: Bulgarian

The course gave me all the necessary information that I needed not only to pass the exam, but most importantly, to use in real life, when I started working in a legal setting. Fast forward a few years, and I am now one of the tutors, which I also really enjoy. Being a tutor is extremely fulfilling, as I can not only help the students with my experience and expertise acquired along the years but it’s also nice to see them progress and improve their skill during the course. The course is very well structured, it follows the exam patterns and it has all the materials needed with the added bonus of an experienced tutor to help the students and give them honest feedback. I thoroughly recommend DPSI Online courses.

The writing style is easy to understand. Each section is not too long, making the whole thing easy to read. I have had the chance to work in projects in areas of expertise that are relevant to Ophthalmology, Optometry, Dermatology and Rheumatology. The content is provided in multiple formats such as online information that you can read and videos as well. Finally, I believe the information offered is high-quality.

Marie-Francoise MillsDPSI Health Past Student - Language: French

I was honoured to have the chance to attend this course. I have learned new information which enabled me to have a better understanding of the Criminal Justice System. All the extra materials were useful. The 12 sessions with the tutor enabled me to develop my consecutive and simultaneous interpreting skills. The tutor was amazing, helping me with any extra material or information I needed. She was very supportive, patient and helped me all the time. I managed to write my own glossary with the help of the tutor and everytime I asked her about a new term she was there to help me with the translation of it. The course was well structured and easy to understand. A very complex course. Thank you.

Catalina OaneaDPSI Law Past Student - Language: Romanian

I enjoyed taking the course, thank you.
The lessons were very useful giving plenty of detail for the respective modules.
The course content was well explained and lessons were set out logically. I found the assignments particularly helpful. The practice of timing and content ensures you are used to the speed expected in the exam. I think it is really important to have a dedicated language tutor throughout the course. I would definitely recommend the course.
