Which study provider?

I am starting out in AAT & looking for a provider for home study with tutor support, can anyone recommend one. I have been looking at Accountancy Learning but don’t really know how to decide, also which text books are best to use?

For me their tutors are really good they give you their email so they are always contactable and always get back to you. I think it depends what center you are looking at going to but most tutors do teach at most centers.
I think its all depends if you go with them privately or through an employer. I would say look around but I think (correct me if I'm wrong) Babington are one of the cheaper providers to go with.
Thank you for your reply and feedback
Yes Babington are cheap compared to other like Kaplan and BPP
Anyway I have decided not to go with any provider at the moment as I can only do online and it seems bonkers to pay for email support!

I would definitely go with someone else , there are many more better providers out there
I have decided to try do lvl 2 by self study, I am attending evening courses in Bookkeeping and Sage and I think that should help me understanding better the conception, as I have no experience whatsoever!
It will be interesting for me to hear how difficult or easy you found the exams?
I will try make them in order, so Transactions should go first
How did you take yours?

I’ve not done anything to do with computerised bookkeeping, how do you find sage?
Always seems to make mistake when inputting data, but otherwise very self explanatory
You probably have Sage provided from your trainer, I used trial version in addition to the training course so I can really wrap my head around it. The version at the course is very old and the new Sage is more user friendly
All in all more you use it, the better!
Good luck in your study!

Thank you , you to
> Annoyingly I purchased the books on eBay and had time this week to start studying but they haven’t arrived and seller has not responded to me so think I may have been ripped off. ☹️
You can try Osborne publishing, when you buy the paperback you instantly receive the e-book for free! I haven't received my books yet but I am already reading it!

I've been looking st Osborne books myself and they are a good price . No my tutor said nothing like that is included seems I got conned a little lol
This year they have stressed me out more than the exams.
Level 2 with them was okay but Level 3 they have just fallen apart. I will also be looking for another provider.
