Department of Education
It is very interesting to work with Educators people who have more experience than you because they teach you somuch work as it is part of gaining knowledge.In most of the day i find it so easy to work with them a lot.We have a good relationship with them because we always get along with them.I have learnt how to attend parents and Staff,doing filling,Preparing the Principal's daily diary,Typing and Photocoping,Using Computer System.Most of the time I enjoy when someone ask me to do some work for the day e.g. Typing and Photocoping together with working with the school System.The most challenging thing is that when it time for writing exams it is too hactic because work load increases each and every seconds and it need a lot of time to get it done in time.
Pros: I know how to do my work.
Cons: 07:30 to 14:30

ICT Learning/Internship program
I can review my work place as not so busy environment but when its during exam time it gets busy. The relationship i have with my co-workers is fine i work well with them even though sometimes they get to be stubborn but i am coping. I have learnt so much within the period of 1year 6months, such as how to deal with clients and users, how and when to give support and assistance when needed. What i enjoy most its the flexibility and the off office work when we travel to schools for monitoring labs and teachers laptops. Most challenging is to deal with people who have no clue how computers work and people who dont seem to have the basics also the one tough transversal system i came across with which is SASAMS.
Pros: Working experience especially learning more on networks
Cons: Transversal systems

First permanent job it took a while to adjust
Been at this job for a while and you as a person needs to be challenged so if you no longer get challenged it calls for change. I love working on the environment with kids they just make you smile even when you are down, working at a school environment taught me to liase with different people from all walks of life, there is a child, a parent, co workers, people from the Department. The greatest challenge is when a parent wants something and they want it now and when you being questioned constantly about the whys. I will always love working with kids but everyone in life needs a new challenge.
Pros: Working five days a week
Cons: Exam time and registration time your work get multiplied like 20

Good learning curve
- Eight hour working day, with three periods per day, on an 8 day cyle timetable. - Good relationship with colleagues in terms of social relations as well as work related stuff. - I have learnt to work independently, as well as to be a team player. I have also acquired some management skills through classroom managing as well as being a subject head. - I enjoy working with learners from different backgrounds and ensuring that I motivate them to have a bright future. - The most challanging aspect is working with bigger numbers of learners in class, making it difficult to reach out to every learner, and making more load in marking.
Pros: Short working hours
Cons: Less opportunities for promotion
