Like most people my learning line begins around the time I first started education, Primary school, where I learnt the basics of numbers, words and the like. I undertook a few after school activities such as learning to swim, Jujitsu and Tennis.
Secondary school is where I found my interest in ICT, technology and Art. All of which I decided to study at GCSE. It was also at this point where I decided that I would enjoy a career path in the entertainment industry, particularly video gaming and animation in films. To follow up on this choice I studied ICT and Media at A level, opting out Art and Graphics due to lack of interest and a disagreement with how the course was taught and marked.
I chose at an early age what I wanted to do and as a result my learning line is mostly filled with my own decisions in what I wanted to learn.
The main regret I have however is that I never gained a wide range of experience in the work place. The work experiences I have completed was compulsory to my studies and were related to office based work skills. This has made applying for part time work in retail areas difficult due to lack of experience.
You come across as someone who knows his own mind - and have the luxury of knowing the career that you want to go in to at an early age - if you want some work experience go and see the Careers team in Student Support Services they may be able to get you something over the summer.
