Consequently, the computer games programming course stood out as something that I really wanted to do. I would like to see people's enjoyment when playing a game, knowing that I took part in producing it.

I have gained valuable experience of computers from daily life such as helping out at the local youth club where they have a computer room for people who want to learn how to use I.T and to learn about new features of the computer. I have worked in sales where working in sales this has allowed me to meet people from different walks of life. This helped me improve on my communication skills etc.
