Jarrod Williams, English Literature Major

Jarrod Williams

“I chose to study English because I always enjoyed reading and writing. For me, it was a way of escape and liberation. Also, the English program at Trent allows you to venture into widely-diverse courses that keep you engaged and challenge you to grow as a student.”

Jarrod Williams, English Literature and international student from the Bahamas. 

Mr. Williams highlights that his relationships with his professors are "beyond exceptional" and that they are "engaging, knowledgeable, supportive and willing to ensure that students get the most out of their time in the classroom.”

In addition to praising his excellent relationship with his professors, Mr. Williams also encourages students to take advantage of Academic Skills on campus, as they are so helpful when it comes to writing essays and completing other written assignments.
