True Life Stories

Adam:
"I had problems getting promotion. I found business writing really difficult and I hated speaking to a group. So I got some advice from link2learn and enrolled at my local college. I attended a course on English for Work, gained the confidence to give presentations and now have no problems with writing. By the way - I got the promotion last month!"

Jean:
"I am married with three children. I left school at fifteen and worked in a factory ever since. I attended a Family Learning Course and caught the learning bug. Since then I have gained GCSEs in English and Maths. I am now studying to be a midwife and delivered my first baby last week."

Dan:
” I joined Fareport after leaving school without any qualifications. I wanted to get a job in admin but needed help with my maths. With support, I have gained an NVQ level 1, and a National Qualification at level one. I also got a full time job with a good wage”

Peter:
” A few years ago I had a stroke, which left me unable to write. I have worked very hard and achieved a City & Guilds qualification. I am now fully confident with my writing and am working towards a higher qualification”

Jill:
”I am a young mum who left school without any qualifications. My health visitor encouraged me to return to learning and I have attended classes to improve my Maths, English and computer skills. I am also a qualified PALS Learning Champion and help to encourage people to take up learning opportunities”

Steve:
”I was unemployed for 12 years, when my advisor persuaded me to go on a course to help me improve my English and Maths. I didn’t want to go, but once I was there I enjoyed every minute. The staff were really helpful. I now work as a gardener and I am improving my maths by studying at home through learndirect”

Susan:
”I wasted my time at school and left without any qualifications. A few years ago I joined a Basic English course and am now on an Access course. The best thing about learning is being with like-minded people. I have made some new friends who are in the same boat as me, working hard to make a difference for our families and ourselves”
