David is spot on. I know lecturers repeat it like a mantra but, take it from a journalism student, it really is that important.

I dropped it in my first year, partly because I wanted to focus on essays and because I was sat next to someone who was ferociously quick-handed (majorly denting my confidence), and now it’s my biggest University regret, no doubt.

I’m going to learn it in my spare time (if possible) but going to your classes and learning from Susan really is invaluable – so don’t even think about dropping it!

In an age of white-hot technology, shorthand remains an old skill that will, quite literally, keep you out of jail. And it will keep your boss out of court too.

Susan will teach you a skill that will save your career time and time again.

Heads down and build that speed.
