Introducing myself

Visible to anyone in the world

One of the things in the 1st session is introducing myself and finding similarities between myself and other OU students.

Here it goes:

I used to be a schoolteacher, I speak mix of Greenlandic, Danish and English with fellow students and friends. Mix of Greenlandic and Danish at home.  I am used to hearing English but every now and then some words seems new to me. It is a challenge for me to study online "alone", but I am not alone. I am studying online with other students from around the world. My English is simple everyday English. As an OU student I am expected to have a vocabulary good enough to be able to work and study on academic level. Sentences should be constructed academically. I was very excited about studying at OU, but I am not nervous, why is it? Is it still unreal to me? I wonder how much I will be able to understand and comprehend during the course, what will be difficult for me? Studying at OU is flexible and you can do it at your own time. Even I just started the L185 course I am already ready for another course. I wonder how things will turn out.
