After a few days of avoiding the inevitable, I’ve finally pulled my finger out and wrote my first blog. I’ve never written a blog before, I haven't even read a blog either so this is a new experience for me, which I hope doesn't turn out to be too hard.
I had my welcome Skype run by Helen on Saturday 14th September, and boy let me tell you I was stressing. I was teaching for the day and had managed to get the hour off for the Skype call. I don't know what I was expecting but I was panicking that I wouldn't understand anything that was being discussed. I had skimmed through the module one handbook and was halfway through reading it carefully by the time we had the welcome call, luckily for me, the Saturday group had module two and three students who gave much appreciated advice, they gave their opinions on what helped them stay focused, what they found helpful and how the community and communication was key. I was a lot more confident due to their comments and I'm looking forward to reading their blogs to see their understanding of their practice.
I’m excited about what happens next as I know it will push me. A little note about me, I’m dyslexic so I've been trying to avoid theory work forever, but since the initial welcome I feel more ready to tackle module one. My number one task at the moment though is learning how to put my thoughts into a coherent sentence. Wish me luck.
