So I went in to learner support on Wednesday because I had talked to them around the end of September and theyhadn't got back to me after that. It was suggested that I have 10 hours training on my computer software (I have special software to help me work) and around two hours help a week. I even filled out a time table to say when I'm free. They and the educational psychologist suggested I get this help, not me... Althoug I'd really liek it.
So yeah, they appologised in the office and said there had been a backlog of students to deal with and I said that I've so far been given 4 essays to do and was coming in becauseI hadn't heard anything about the help I'm going to receive. They said they'd phone me the following day.
The next day they phoned me saying I'd come in asking for learner support and that they had no more slots free to help me (O....k, but I was seen over a month ago and filled out a timetable because they suggested I need this help)... I also kind of felt like I was burdening them becaus they put it across as if I'd just walked right in demanding it out of the blue. They think they ma be able to fit me in for a small slot on a Friday.
So now I have 4 essays to write and a bunch of software I can't work out how to use.
Fantastic. :mad:
