Teaching Time

Tom Kavanagh is a mature student. He joined the W&L programme in 2019 because he had time on his hands and a dream to pursue. He might pursue that elusive dream for many years yet, but the programme has, at least, amply prepared him for the chase. There were challenges along the way. Tom is profoundly visually impaired. Tutors were so accommodating. Fellow students were so understanding. The three years flew by too quickly. Being introduced to so many of the greatest writers for the first time, Tom leaves the programme in no doubt that some of the most talented writers he met were those with whom he shared a classroom. Believing that no one is too old to learn, and we can all learn so much from one another, Tom Kavanagh loved his time on the W&L programme. He will miss it, and will miss all those he met along the way.
