Precious Hours

This current course is scheduled to run until the end of June. The Addams Family are the least ready for exams. We had thought that they would get extra time but LM has let me know that this is not so, they must get to the required standard (City & Guilds Expert level) by then or they're down-the-road.

It's not too unreasonable, I suppose. These guys are employed and getting paid to attend, and, well, that's the breaks. It's going to be quite a task though. I reckon with some effort from them and from me, we can get them all through the next level down, Communicator, (these silly, uninformative names!) in the next month or so. But Expert, in three months, I don't know.

There are only five of them, and despite their frequent expressions of (to me) bizarre views about learning, they are motivated. Being in Damocles' sandals isn't necessarily conducive to learning, however. The deadline will focus me, but I'll try to avoid using it as a sword to scare them with.
