For my English coursework I will be writing about my work experience, what I did, what I gained from it and what I have planned for my future?
Initially, in my half-term holidays I did one week of work experience in Saint Charles Clifford Dental Hospital in Sheffield University, working as a dental assistant. I had chosen this criterion for deciding my future plans because I have a deep interest in human biology and anatomy. In the work experience I had hoped to gain a deep insight in dentistry and to see whether I would enjoy as a permanent career.
On my first day of work experience I was very nervous and was feeling rather sick because I had an interview with Susan Wan, the Head of Department of Dental Education, I was expecting to be interviewed by a hard faced, dull person who did not seem to have a bright future, whose world just evolved around by decayed teeth but instead she was totally the opposite, she was very friendly and welcoming, I felt as if I had known her for years. It was rather an informal interview; she showed me the entire infrastructure of the hospital, it felt like entering another planet in outer space as their were dozen of floors which had dozens of department, there was a unique language in the Hospital where words like RD2, A&C were used, which seemed to be Chinese to me at first.
