It was with some trepidation that I attended this course, not having done any teaching before, I felt I needed to build some confidence to be able to. I also wasn’t sure of the method of teaching, having learnt to ring myself by the ‘old school’ method. I have been converted, I felt this method of teaching was safer, not only for the learner but also the teacher. No banging of stays as most of the teaching was done just below the balance. I was amazed and impressed by the fact that some of the attendees had not been ringing that long and were willing to take on the roll of teaching. I liked the process of theory first then practical at each stage of the process and the support we will get from mentors back in our own towers. For the first time I feel able to advertise the fact that St Andrews, Aylestone is open for learners to augment our band.
Thank you Becki for an interesting, fun and it has to be said tiring day, and to all my fellow classmates for making the day a happy experience, it was lovely meeting you all.
