Studying through a pandemic

摘要

WHEN I started a diploma in higher education clinical veterinary nursing in 2018, it never crossed my mind that I might have to complete it during a global pandemic while also homeschooling my very energetic five-year-old son.As a single mother, blended online learning was always going to be a challenge for me, purely due to the lack of time available. However, I knew that my days off could be put to good use while my son attended school, and I allocated time wisely to allowme to complete assignments and revise for upcoming exams.Despite initially failing one of my exams, I managed to get through my first year and boldly went into the second, hopeful that I could continue and complete the diploma in advanced veterinary nursing.
