Jeremy's Story
Personal trainer Jeremy Soh Keng An is reaping the rewards after graduating with a 2:1 in Sports Studies and Marketing (Hons).
The 30-year-old, from Singapore, chose to embark upon a course with the °®Âþµº as he felt it gave him the ¡°perfect¡± opportunity to understand the science and business aspects of sport.
Jeremy had previously attained a diploma in sports and exercise science from Republic Polytechnic in Singapore but initially found the transition to university life difficult.
¡°The workload in university is completely different than that in the polytechnic,¡± he explained. ¡°It was a hard but good lesson as it made me reassess my time management and prioritise my studies before work and sport.¡±
During his two years at the University, Jeremy had the opportunity to take part in an exchange programme and spent a semester in °®Âþµº.
¡°I really enjoyed my time at °®Âþµº and would love to go back one day,¡± he said.
Jeremy¡¯s degree has given him the knowledge, skills and experience to grow his business.
He explained: ¡°As I am working as a personal trainer now, I am continuing to build up my business and client-base.
¡°I plan to give myself a year to fully experience what this job has to offer. After that, depending on how well I am doing, I will either continue or find something different.¡±
Asked to describe his time at °®Âþµº in three words, Jeremy replied: ¡°Completely amazing time.¡±
