Counselling skills level 2 lesson 1 November 30th 2009 Kerry Moore pg 1
I was excited about starting the new course today. I think it is because for the last few weeks we have been revising for our test and last week we just had a tutorial with peter. Now we are back to the lessons and that is what’s so exciting. When I got to college there was already a few of us waiting to go in so we were all keen.

Anything over 800 will not be read so we have to check our word counter.

* Teachers life skills (guidance)
* Parents life skills (guidance)
* Doctor counselling skills
* Friends counselling skills
* Sister counselling skills
I also remembered one later on in the lesson which was support worker. I went to see one a few years ago when I had moved back to Worksop from Blackpool where I had been in a bad relationship and...
