I would like to purchase some Strings for my Tanglewood TW28SNQ (learner) Guitar.

However can i use any brand of string with my Tanglewood Guitar, such as Fender? Also does anyone recommend i purchase light or medium strings?

My Guitar can be found here:

The Fender Strings can be found here (scroll down to Fender):

Will they work together, or should i purchase a different brand?

You can try almost any brand of string.
Much depends on the sound you want and the ease of playing.
Light gauge strings are easier on your fingers than heavy gauge strings but heavy gauge strings will have a richer, fuller sound.
I have even used light gauge electric strings on an acoustic guitar so
I could bend the strings easier.
But the tone suffered greatly.

Keep in mind that if you change gauges of strings you may have to make a truss rod adjustment.

By the way.
That is a nice guitar.
This is fascinating! I love this picture! So I know it's going to be a bomb. It's always a disaster when you love something.
