“Being relatively new to AAT (awaiting result of final exam) and seeing what can be achieved when qualified, left me feeling on a high.  All of those nights and weekends spent studying whilst my children were out having fun with their dad suddenly seemed worth it. Hopefully, one day, I too will be able to afford to treat them in such a way.”
