Case study: Anna F

Anna is currently attending a Functional Skills Entry 3 course. She left school with no formal education. She said, “I left school with no qualification, because I have anxiety and struggled to sit exams.” Anna decided to attend FACES English classes to improve her skills.

How the course has helped 

Anna told us that she enjoys attending English classes. She has met new people and has an “amazing tutor” to support her. Since joining the class, she can now use learning tools effectively. For instance, she can use a dictionary to support her learning.   

Anna said:

"studying with FACES was the first opportunity for me to restart education after a very long time"

Finding out about courses 

She advises anyone who wants to take that first step towards learning to talk to one of the FACES tutors. Anna said:

"FACES also have information online where you can see all the courses available, and activities delivered in the community"
