bit chuffed....
 
For those of you that may remember..

I passed my level 2 sign language course..:thumbsup:

I had originally failed one of the modules and had to re-sit, did that and got the letter the other day.

Glad i was in on my own though cos when i passed level 1 the cert came with the pass letter, this time i just got the pass letter so i thought id failed again. :ohmy:

I threw it on the sofa, glared at it for an hour while declaring loudly that im not re-taking, im just not!!!! :o

Thought id just have a look and see how much id failed on, the pass mark was 15............i got 16 phew.:thumbsup:

I have now been offered some supply work at the local juniors to do some support language teaching assistant, no guarentee of a job but its all experience. :D :thumbsup:

really chuffed with meself.

just thought id share that with you all......:wub:

My kids learned Auslan in school. I used to know some American sign language, as my oldest brother went to the school for deaf children. If you come to the meet on Sunday I'll get my daughter to teach you some swear words.

By the way, well done on passing your test, Nicky

Wasnt too hard really, a lot of the signs really represent the word...if you know what i mean.....like 'sunday' you just put your hands together like in a prayer..

My probs with the exam was that i had to tell a 4 minute story in front of a video camera about my fav foreign food..and only had 10 mins to prepare, so totally failed. This time it was a story about fav shop...that was better, felt more confident too.

Nickie well done mate.
That is such an achievement -
I did the first year of level 2 and just couldn't keep up. It was harder than doing a degree!
I know how hard you must have worked for this.
I'm so happy for you, you must be very proud :wub:
Congrautulations and you so deserve them - it's so bloody hard!! :thumbsup:
