I dint like it when I started doing it as my assessor at the time was concentrating on doing my english .which didn't engage me I wanted to do my course work .I got down with my self and just didn't do it.after a few weeks I got a new assessor who understood the way I worked and have come on so well with the support of my tutor I'm 68% way through my level 4 and have no passed my English by doing course work and English along side
Very good I understand it and can find my way around it really well
Not a great deal occasionally I might ask her a question she will tell me where to find it .I have learnt something from her
As much as I need if I'm stuck on thing I can message her and she points me in the right direction
A lot more it's given me confidence and puts the knowledge that I had to good use and I like to learn and all ways try to do better
Not really a few staff members get to gether sometimes socially. Or if we have a wedding we try and support them
Yes
I have before recommended 2 friends to work at voyage and didn't use repair a friend as I was told that the money came out of the services budget so I didn't bother
You need to be a caring person to work hear the money is not the best paid but you have opportunities to move up the ladder and your money will go up a little.its just about how you can change a residents day with a bit of kindness and help them live as independently as they can .and improve their skills .there nothing better than helping someone reach their goals
