During my GCSE English course, in 2020, I needed to complete a speaking and listening pitch. I discussed why using mobile phones before bedtime is not advisable because it makes it difficult to fall asleep.

I was nervous because I hate speaking in public. It was only three minutes, but it felt like a lot more. I am proud that I got a merit for that part of the exam. I also passed with a level seven (A). In 2025, I passed my GCSE Maths with a level five, which is equivalent to a B grade.

It also helped me as a teaching assistant, and I am proud that I can support students who find these subjects hard. I would love to hear of something you are proud of.

I am a fifty something mother of two grown up children, and one beautiful grandchild. I have been married for nearly thirty-four years. My first book was published ten years ago. I wrote my book Sticks and Stones because of my experience of being bullied at school.
