    Is going to book herself onto a English Course.

    Hi Everyone,

    The other day I picked up a leaflet about free English and Maths courses. I have been umming and arring whether to go on it or not. I have decided what the hell, I need to refresh my english as I didn't do very well at school.

    The hardest part was to phone up and ask like details, for instances is it really free(not to just those on means tested benefits and OAP's) I had to write everything down. I eventually did it. The course starts in January 2011, so have to prepare myself for then.

    I asked how many people are there going to be?(don't like group things) and she said oh about 10 or so people, so no huge groups phew.

    All I have got to do now is complete the booking form and send it back.

    I got really worried because she like didn't send the booking form straight away, I had visions of her writing down the wrong email address and things and having to ring up again. No I did receive the email phew, worrying over nothing really.

    Not sure why I wrote this really. I guess just wanted to share.

    Anita, xx

    Hi Everyone,


    Just an update really. English Course day, my man sort of walked me to the door(thank god). There was like 6 other people at the course. The tutor like started off going around the room and getting people to say their name to everyone and why you are on the course and things. I thought OMFG, how am I going to do this. My hands were shaking, far too hot, heart racing, fiddling with my pen. I did manage to speak and things.

    I seemed to calm down later on, but still felt not sure. Well had to do an assessment of how my english is and where I am. I did get 30 out of the 40 questions correct. Which was ok.

    Thats it really. I have got some homework to do too lol.

    Anita I'm really proud of you. You keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and really challenging yourself. Sometimes you have a hard time but you just get straight back on with the next challenge.

    You're brilliant, I hope you feel proud of yourself, you should!
