Book a tutorial

If you need help with your searching, you can book a tutorial with Mandy Goode.

Sometimes, the times available are not convenient to you, or the slots have already been taken.

Please feel free to email Mandy directly so we can sort out a mutually convenient time.

How to reference

It is vital that you reference all the material you use, quote from or refer to in your work. ODP students need to use the Harvard Referencing system

Here is a guide to using Harvard.
