Subject: RE: UK Govt to spend £10 million on singing
Anything the Government does is well below standard.

Alba, I used to be the tutor at a Learn Direct Centre and in all honesty it was as bad as selling double glazing. I had to lie through my teach to encourage people to join up. One day the network went down and I had a group who were all doing similar things. So I decided to teach them about file management and show them the inside of a computer so they could understand how a computer worked. We could still use the machines stand alone. In 2 hours they learnt and understood more than they had learnt in ten weeks at the centre. In all honesty, most people got very frustrated with sitting there listening to the computer talking to them and then controlling what they could do.
