Learning at home

Spencer Connors – YEAR 11

What are the biggest challenges for you learning at home?

The biggest challenge would probably be my motivation levels. If I tell myself I will do something tomorrow then it won’t get done.

Which subject is proving the toughest to study remotely?

I’d say my Unit 3 PE class would be the most challenging for me so far, it’s just one of those subjects where it’s heaps easier to learn in class with the teacher rather than online.

What do you like about learning at home?

I like being able to wake up 10 minutes before my class and not having to worry too much about getting ready for the day.

Have you got a favourite place at home to work?

I always do my classwork in the back room of the house overlooking the backyard, which is pretty good.

What’s your iso exercise of choice?

I like to get out for a bit of a run some mornings.

Any funny, unexpected things that have happened as a result of learning at home?

I’ve joined in with a few of my younger sibling’s school projects that have been a bit of a laugh.

What do you miss most about physically going to school?

I miss seeing my mates at school every day.

What’s something you do to completely switch off from study?

Play a bit of PS4 with the boys.

Anything you’d like to say to the rest of the BSSC community during lockdown?

Ah, just keep on keeping on!
