"The one thing I will never forget about Wesley Institute is the people. I will always be grateful for the excellent training I received, but I am all the more thankful to God for my classmates and teachers. Wesley provided me with a second family that I can always call on for advice."

"WI is a treasured gift from God. Before I came here I didn’t know much of the college but while here I learnt much and God grew me and gave me much direction. So for me, WI is a precious gift from God to my life."

"Wesley has provided me with a great opportunity to learn how to use the gifts God has given me. I think the mark of a great institution that educates is that they don’t seek to just put knowledge into you, they also seek to draw out your potential and I think Wesley has done that in a fantastic way. I’m immensely thankful for the opportunity I’ve had to study here and meet the people I’ve met and learn under the people I’ve learnt under. I’ll be forever thankful to God and to the Institute for the opportunities I’ve had."

"Originally I felt called to go to Wesley and I don’t know why, at the time I wasn’t Christian and then throughout the three years I was really transformed spiritually. I was shown a lot by professionals who had been in the industry and was pushed in directions of where I could potentially go and use my gifts. It was a really encouraging atmosphere and Wesley was really encouraging for growth and on how to express yourself as an individual. So I’m very happy and have had wonderful experiences at Wesley Institute."

"My time at Wesley was a good one, I learnt a lot about people, about myself, about God and Jesus. I enjoyed the Wesley life on campus, it was fun. My personal growth was great from where I started to where I am now, it has been a major development in my acting skills and the way I am as a person. It’s been great and I thank Wesley for all the lecturers and everyone who has helped me get this far."
