Since I tend to ramble a bit whenever I write I felt the need to split this post into two parts, I felt I could have written a whole book in the first post.
Right so were was I?? Khan Academy yes, I feel like this is a great resource for a lot of people, especially me. It seems like I didn't learn anything in school because everything I see on this website seems extremely foreign to me, or maybe I just wasn't paying attention, you can blame the ADD on that.
I made it through all of the Crash Course:World History videos, I know for sure that it was beneficial, it gave me a lot of new topics to research and there was plenty of humour in it too which helped quite a bit with getting through all of the serious stuff.
After that course I decided to try and brush up on my mathematics skill which I found to be severely lacking. I didn't really need to learn how to add 1+1 but I wasn't far off it. I didn't get to any material that I couldn't manage. Sure I saw some stuff that was a bit of a challenge but I managed to comprehend some of it in the end. Whether I can remember anything I learned is another matter though, That's my main problem when it comes to learning new skills or trying to learn some new information, my level of retention isn't that high. I don't know if there's much I can do to combat that, I wouldn't know if I was getting any better at it though.
I have plenty of notebooks at my disposal but I never bring them with me or write in them frequently enough to make much of a difference. Notebooks or notepads can definitely be beneficial for me when it comes to work and doing the PFS for Tesco. There's plenty I need to learn about that job before I could be considered knowledgeable.
Since i've procrastinated for so long I think this could end being a 3 part post, unless I just ramble on for another 10 minutes or so which could be very likely, i've been known to do it in the past.
