As part of my student ambassador role, I have branched out into working on the progressions side as well as the marketing side of things (open days etc.) Today I had my first progressions shift where my role was to accompany and instruct 15-18 year olds on a fashion tailoring workshop. This was a great opportunity to learn new skills myself; for example today I learnt how to hand-sew a button hole and how to pad-stitch the inside of a jacket lapel, and to share these skills with others.
As part of my practice in the future, I am considering teaching as a potential option, and engaging in workshops like these on a regular basis to improve my confidence and teaching skills.
