      Languages!
      I was terrible at them. I had no idea what they were talking about when they said things like “conjugate”,
      “infinitive”, “accusative”, “nominative”, which bit is the object… what the past participle is… I was always a bit lost. I’m not even sure of grammar in my own language, not to mind in French!

      I now use Duolingo, podcasts and videos on Youtube to try and learn languages and I wish they had been around a little earlier.

      Hi Cherry 4 life and emma.is.a.dank.meme, I struggled with English, French, Design and Craft basically everything other than Science and Maths. I was very engaged with learning but struggled with the teaching styles.

      Chemistry!! I wished I’d found a way to understand it more. Still to this day I have so many questions to ask on the subject!
      I am tempted to study it again now, you’re never too old!

      I struggled a lot with Philosophy. Some ideas didn’t make sense to me or were too abstract and I struggles to much remebering them.
      I would like to give it another go by reading some books, after all some philosophers shaped our culture and it would be interresting to understand how and why.
