Resilience Adds-Up for Shelley!
Shelley came to Rochdale Training to study Functional Skills Maths at Level 2.
Her previous experience of Maths was not a good one and despite her outgoing and bubbly personality it was clear to see that she was not looking forward to having to work through all the topics involved and sit the exam at the end of the course.
Despite her fears and reservations, she attended every class, was always focused and worked hard to understand each different method, formula and technique required.
At the end of the course, Shelley took her Level 2 Maths exam and unfortunately didn’t achieve it, which was a real blow to Shelley’s confidence, explaining afterwards she did say that she was ready to give up.
Shelley’s Maths tutor Peter Thomas said “After speaking to Shelley at length I managed to convince her to try again, and so she did. She attended more classes, showed determination and focus and continued to work hard.
