I think it is time to say thank you my tutor … Thank you for your precious modules too…

Sometimes I feel I owe my tutors so much as I learned so much from them, I now feel fulfilled and very well equipped to join university.

I’ve had great modules throughout the course that I feel confident enough to call them my precious modules. They are precious as they taught me a lot. They are precious as they built up a strong base of knowledge for me.

For instance, I would regard business organisation module a one of my precious modules as it taught me more about organisations and legislations regarding using computer and IT services in different organisations.  This was a sort of module that I enjoyed not only for gaining grades and credits but also to learn valuable information that I would need for the rest of my carrier life.

Therefore, I think it is time to say THANK YOU MY TUTERS. 

My Maths!!!

It seemed really hard for me at the beginning of my access course when started studying Maths in English. While me classmates were busy doing assignments. I had to learn to recognise the basic signs as they are totally different from the Math I used to study. I had to learn the mathematical vocabularies in English.

With passing time I found myself doing assignments and exams in Math and could gain a reasonable 6 credits at level 3 as well as 3 other credits in level 2 .

What a great achievement!! However, I should have done better grade wise, but I feel I tried my best and that is a relief in some other ways of thinking. Fantastic!!!! 

Come on Computer systems module give me a hope!!

Have submitted Hardware assignment and waiting for my grade,

But I am putting a lot of hope on my next assignment of this module ( Networking) to get at least merit... FINGERS CROSSED 

SWOT

Strength	weakness
·         I am very good for web design and crate by front page. ·         I am very good and understand networking. ·         I am totally understood in software and kind of computer component. ·         I like multimedia then I am very good for this unit. ·         I used computer around 7 years	·         I am not very good in excel. ·         I am not very good in programing ·         My memory is not good because I am dad. ·         I am 31 some of the module course  is difficult to understand properly.
Opportunities	Threats
·         Always I would like using computer to create website, multimedia, (create calculate, traffic light…etc. by visual basic 2010) ·         I would like using PowerPoint to create everything when I would like it for example : short story for kids, description my language to English language.	·    Iam international student  ·    English language is not easy for me, because English is the third language in my country.

organisation structures

I have done my organisation structures assignment, i am so happy with that many thanks for my tutor  :-)

Personal statement

Personal statement

My deep personal interest in computer studies started when my father put me in charge to help
my elder sister and brother with their computer modules at high schools when I was only 13.
Their computer modules had always been the subject of discussion on dinner times. They always
had problems with the modules. I remember once I picked my sister's computer book up and I had
a look at it. I was surprised with the mistake she made in her computer exam. I told her if
she has ever had a look at the instructions in her book she would not have made that mistake.
My father sighed and said that from then and on I would be their computer teacher at home.
Then, I was so proud of myself and was not able to differentiate between my father's
seriousness in what he said. But my father's speech was a source to give me power to choose,
in my only 13th, what I am going to study in the future. When I arrived in the UK I realized
that studying computer in a foreign is going to be hard. My wife gave birth to our son only 23
days before she starts her MA in the UK. I suddenly found myself as a fulltime father, this
was apart from all the supports my wife needed during her study. Consequently, I obliged to
put my thoughts of my study aside for a while, as I was struggling to find enough time for my
academic study. However I have started to improve my English first, but being a fulltime
father at the same time was always on obstacle for making the ends meet. But I am rather proud
for being called by my wife and my parents 'a father and a student who never gives up'. After
along time of waiting I ended up as an enrolled student of 'English Language' student at
Sheffield Hallam University. Obtaining 6 over all and with no less than 6 in each element in
the English course have given me a great sense of fulfillment. This has encouraged me to do my
best in College too.
Studying both computer and mathematics at college has helped me to know more about myself. I
find these subjects interesting and I would enjoy the challenge of studying subjects that can
be difficult for other students. As a result of my studies, I have realised how challenging,
rational and creative I am. I am quite happy that my current course at the college will equips
me with a great amount of knowledge about computer studies in my under graduate course at
university. I am feeling that I am one step away from starting the study of my dream. I look
forward to continuing my studies and investigating computer programs and technological
information in more detail. This personal interest in this program of study is further
affected by a factor of my whereabouts in the world. Living in Kurdistan in such a critical
period of Kurdish people's life in the region made me realise that I need to do something that
benefits both me and my community. Our region is a developing region. It is a region
recovering from ten of years of suffering under the rule of the past regime. However, our
region is well gifted by natural resources, but this would not be enough for the process of
developing of our region. We need to develop individual skills in order to use our natural
resources effectively for the benefits of all. Computing and networking are going to be the
core of the development plan. Further studying computing in my undergraduate course would give
me an opportunity to gain the honour in participating in that process of improvement and
development of my country. Studying for an undergraduate degree in computing will give me a
chance to be an effective character in the process of my country's process of development.
Finally, it is not only the subject that will grant me a chance to be recognised individual,
deciding to do my undergraduate course abroad would be a better chance for me for
strengthening my personality and gaining more self-confidence.

My UCAS Application…

Shall I call it the strangest experience I’ve ever had in my life??!!! Don’t know why but it was not easy for me for some reasons;

I suddenly found myself studying and doing assignments and exams with an educational system totally different from what I used to deal with. Above all these APPLYING TO UNI THROUGH UCAS!!!!  God ….. That was new and different for me…

I guess it would have been easier for me if I have had job applications with CV’s before, but unfortunately I haven’t done these things previously….

Moreover, I have to decide which courses to choose and at what universities… This will take a while for me for sure, but will give updates in my upcoming updates about my UCAS application form.
