Re: rough time
Hi @outlander
I see you're having trouble with your assignment. Sometimes the more we fight against something, just leads to blockage and frustrations. Can you maybe just tackle 10mins of your assignment at a time a few times a day. And try to relax about it- that you're quite capable and you'll know it'll be alright and done satisfactory and on time.
Can you do anything this afternoon to relax you, like colouring in, some crotchet, listen to some music perhaps?
What is it specifically about this assignment that's so challenging?

Re: rough time
hi sis @Sans911
it is all oral, it is one of the things i struggle with alot doesnt matter how easy the topic may be either. they want me to decipher the medical report first and as im reading expand on all the abbreviations etc, as well as going through a 30 word list- so say each word going from 1- 30 most of which i cant say even with practice. some of their abbreviations arent coming up when you look it up or the ones i think they are no longer looking right or sound right when you say them.

Re: rough time
Can you write it all out first? I know you struggle with speaking stuff. Can you maybe practice

Re: rough time
It after you write it out? And I dunno if it helps, but maybe talk it out with me. Have me in the room with you, Jasper on my lap. Speak as if you're going over it with me @outlander.
You know I won't judge you one bit, not even if you fluff it.

Re: rough time
For the list Ive tried writing each word out without saying anything but more saying it in my head, writing the words but saying it outloud or sounding it out if i cant say it outright. Im really not getting anywhere with it though. Im ok if the speaking isnt pressurised, I tend to talk to myself anyway when im working through things but not when it comes to assessments. I go blank and panic or i just mix/stutter the words. I hadnt thought of talking to you as if you were here with me though! I ca either ring them and do it over the phone or do the recording version and sent it through to them which is what im aiming for.
And then the medical report where i need to expand etc i always seem to stuff up there because i expand something that doesnt have to be expanded or the other way round where i shouldve expanded but didnt.

Re: rough time
@Sans911This is the medical report they want me to narrate for them. it really shouldnt be that hard to do. so far, i have expanded most of them but the rest i either dont know what they are or they arent making sense or dont know if they are suppose to be expanded. can you help me with that part?
Does GI need to be expanded? CCF- it comes up a few different things and in this context i dont really know which one it is....? does LV, MI or FVC need to be expanded or just read them as LV etc?

Re: rough time
Yikes! Medical terminology on a Sunday night - you're brave. I can't read peintbon attachment but can say MI, CCF & GI are well known standard abbreviations.
- MI =heart attack / miocardial infarction
- CCF = congestive cardiac failure
- GI = gastrointestinal (tract - GIT)
LV & FVC - haven't got a clue!
I'm impressed you're doingvtjis
WELL DONE!
