RP’s Problem-based Learning approach is ideal for an experiential learner like me! I was able to understand concepts and theories better because the lecturers in RP are markedly different from all the teachers I have had to date. They build great rapport with students and take genuine interest in our lives. I’ve received valuable guidance from them for my life decisions.
