Testimonials

Here is what some of our students have said about
their experiences here in VTS

VTS is a good place to stay, for academic, spiritual and moral modelling. A place where someone's mindset can be shaped. I have learnt humility and respect. Academically, the school helped me to balance my theology: it has shaped my Theological perspectives and thinking. It has indeed helped me to understand the scripture and how to handle the it.

When I was to come from Sierra Leone, my expectations were very high. However, when I came and saw the environment, my expectations went down. I thought this was not the school I was to come. But when students resumed, and lectures began, I understood that the content was great. I am sure the content measures better than other schools with better and bigger infrastructure. Like a book, the cover was not such attractive, but the content was what put us up again.... I have learnt a lot and have decided to implement then when I return home.
