APS wk8 Wrap up

Wk 8! First week of term two. 18th April

Back after two wk break in line with standard school holidays.

When I first found out we would be breaking for school holidays I was a lil taken back, bc I didn't know this before I committed to th course. It's on me, I should have asked th right questions. I signed on, I actually fort to be able to do this course, and now I look at th outline, it really doesn't say much at all. I have learnt that that need to get specific information is valid. I assumed th out line meant one thing, but it's not what I expected, and it almost feels manipulative.

.

Advanced Permaculture Skill course, with full teacher training course = I expected training to teach Permaculture, as in a certificate of Permaculture teacher training. Our facilitator has outlined that aspect is teaching us how to teach any course or subject, not specifically th act of teaching a pdc, and designing a pdc outline. I don't really specifically want to teach pdcs solo, well not yet anyway, but one day I would like to, for now id like to co teach, be on a team with others as support staff, and that's why I signed up. and to teach day workshops solo, or teamed. 

I've chosen to trust in th flow. I trust our facilitators many yrs of experience with hands on growing annuals, his knowledge of food forest systems, and oc Permaculture landscape designs. But given th opportunity again, I don't know if i would take this course, or any thing with this facilitator specifically. Th financial strain for us has been a huge impact of our lives, on its own is one thing, but then to feel I'm not getting what I thought I was, th things I used to justify doing th course, burdening th family to further myself, I'm just not sure it stacks up. There so much i want to say but its just not coming out. its not right.
