Becoming a TELT Ambassador has definitely been one of the highlights of my time at Queen Mary and my academic journey. I applied for this role because I wanted to support other students, but I didn’t realise how much confidence and creativity I would gain in the process.

Samuel 
Starting my first Welcome Week as a TELT Ambassador was exciting but a little daunting. I knew we’d be helping new students settle in and learn to use QMUL’s digital tools, but I didn’t realise how much preparation was involved.

Waqas
Becoming a TELT Student Ambassador has been one of my most fulfilling experiences whilst being a student at Queen Mary.

Stefania 
As a final-year Politics and Sociology student, my role as a Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) Student Ambassador has been a wonderful experience because of how many transferable skills this role has to offer, from communication and teamwork to time management. Interacting with students during Welcome Week reaffirmed my interest in exploring a career in outreach and public affairs. Besides this, I particularly enjoyed giving back to students, knowing that I have been in their position before.
