The support I have received from all of my teachers at Rhyl Sixth has been exceptional. If at any point I needed help, I knew where to ask. If I struggled, my tutors were keen to ensure I stayed on-track. It was clear that everyone cared, an aspect I think truly allowed me to develop. Every tutor I have had has shaped the way I think, and I am truly thankful for all support received.
