Teaching and learning
Posted by studentdoctoruk on January 17, 2008
Well I definately underestimated my landlord the other day. By 5pm the day after we reported the damage we had a brand spanking new microwave sitting in the kitchen and the shower has been reattached to the wall courtesy of some rather long screws and some silicon adhesive. I’m very impressed with the speed of the repairs, just waiting for the tiler to come to repair the roof - hopefully he’ll come before we get more torrential rain.
Last night was spent helping teach CPR to people who have never had any first aid training before, I really enjoyed it, I love teaching - especially when its a topic that I am completely confident in and can just relax rather than having to think and rethink through everything that I’m saying. I would really like to be a first aid trainer - so one of my goals for 2008 is to at least have started the process! If I can manage it, it would definately look good to have teaching experience on my application for a FY1 post in 2010.
Currently watching BBC News 24 and the current big news story happening at Heathrow. From whats being reported so far it sounds that the pilot has managed to glide the plane in safely after losing power and controls, if thats true he deserves massive congratulations.
