Enjoy coming into the Study Room to access my e-mail and research for jobs. Have done a few courses on the computer, First Time On-Line, and Football Basics which progressed me on to First Steps into Sport Leadership. I now run junior sport sessions on the Sports Pitch at the Resource Centre.

Didn't know anything about computers, came into the Study Room and got really into into the internet and e-mail. Looked for a job on Job Search and got help with my CV. On the fun side learnt how to buy on eBay, can now buy and sell and earn myself some extra cash. Secured a full-time and have now purchased my own computer.
