It’s been a difficult week this week. The tutor who I was supposed to be training last Monday fell ill on Monday morning, and so we had to cancel the practice assessments that had been arranged. I always hate cancelling on people, because after years of assessing tutors myself, I know how frustrating it is.
Also, Harriet had to take an unexpected day off last week, which created a bit of a backlog (apologies to anyone who was affected by it). Consequently I spent a lot of the week putting out fires, and fretting. The fretting probably made the situation seem worse that it was, but all is well again now.
Anyway, the result of all this is that it’s made me very keen to knuckle down this week and get some important work done. We’re getting very close to the busy exam period, and I’m looking forward to helping as many students as possible.
