Elizabeth Nyarai Humba: Class of 1980

To celebrate 35 fantastic years of North Hertfordshire College, we’re calling on all our student alumni to share their memories of NHC.

Take Elizabeth for example – she studied A Level Psychology, Economics, and English at NHC between 1979 and 1980, and got in touch to share her story. Check out what Elizabeth sent us below:

“My two years at college were the foundation upon which I built everything else. It was such a safe, warm place where I felt fully accepted.

“North Hertfordshire College championed independence, which made me very responsible in terms of attendance.

. I’m retired now, but when I was working, I would draw on the self-leadership, critical thinking and research skills I gained while studying at North Hertfordshire College.

“My favourite memory from my time at North Hertfordshire College has to be the day I got my A Level results.

“I’d like to give a shoutout to my favourite lecturer, Martin, who taught Psychology. The passion my lecturers had for their subject made me, in turn, super passionate about social science and research.
