Professional Practice 5101

As the module was launched I had varied ideas of the kind of experiences I might like to gain.
I really enjoy making and particularly trying various different crafts. I enjoy working with wood, textiles, paint and sculpture and would love to be able to eventually incorporate most of these into what I do.
I had previously thought about teaching at high school level but having gained previous experience I realised that this wasn't for me. I wanted to try other ways of teaching, looking into mental health and special needs particularly.
As part of the Professional Practice module I am already involved with 4 other students in an 'Upcycling' project which has been really successful. The demand for restoring and revamping old furniture has really surprised us and I would like to gain experience from professionals already in this field as I am really enjoying it.
As my interests lie with making I also want to look into prop making. I feel that this would bring together a lot of my skills and interests.
