Me and @craftykraken just now, as we enter the last weeks of our terms:

“I don’t fucking want to do any of this anymore. Fuck.”

High fives. Many high fives. Many sighs.
#MatureStudents

Are there any #maturestudents on my feed who would care to contribute to my survey for my own Degree? It would be massively appreciated (It's also why I haven't been on the platform much lately either). It's also anonymous https://form.jotform.com/Barbara_Edwards_projects/integrated-learning-project-june-30 #mastodaoine #coaching #education

OK all you *oldies*. What have you studied at a ripe age, when people have told you you should be old enough to know better? What other adventures have you set off on?
I'll be pushing 57 when I begin a five year course in #TraditionalChineseMedicine.

#MatureStudents #NeverTooOld

Okay, another go at an #introduction. (Feels like a job application...) I'm a fully paid-up member of the Guardian-reading, tofu-eating wokerati, #feminist #antiracist #antifascist #socialist. Love #bbc6music, #cooking, #crochet, rude #crossstitch, #gardening & the #seaside. Currently teach courses for #maturestudents on #academicliteracy, #middlebrow #literature and #classicalreception. I try to think the best of people, often disappointed. Firm conviction in the general absurdity of the world.
Two in five 18-year-olds in UK apply to study at university this year

Ucas figures also reveal record numbers of students from China and India
