The wonder of distance learning

I've only been doing distance learning since June 2010 and the benefits to me are amazing. I work full time in a call centre and felt that surely there is a better life than this.

So I contacted various distance learning schools and now I am well under way of my second year (after being a university drop out a few years prior due to it getting increasingly more challenging and not getting anywhere near the marks I would have liked to achieve) in completing my degree in counselling and therapeutic communication so that I can be a fully qualified and accredited CBT therapist for the NHS.

I am passing my course work each month and coming out with better marks than I could have come out with had I stayed fulltime at Uni and completed my degree there.

I am on higher grades and recieving my next two courses in February after passing my first two now. I hope that the trend of me passing these courses carries on and all my marks stay above and around the 2'1/1st class mark. So that it puts me in for better standing in my final year.

I look forward to my studies and as I am doing only one module at a time, it is as if I can put my all into that chosen area of study. I can't wait to get my full second year of CAT points (university grading points) and know that I am finally 2 years through a degree and getting better than just a call centre number.
