Sanana Lewanika: My Blogg

My Blogg

I started the BAPP course in January 2011, since the start of the course I was given my hand book along with the reader and the web tools. I have been to three campus sessions. We are now in March and I have only just started to transfer my entire notes on to my blogg, for those looking out side it, it would look as though I am behind. However for me looking inside out I’m right on schedule. It has taken me a long time to put up my blog; or rather my posts.

I really have struggled with this task. Not because did not know what I had to do, I just found it hard to get my self back into the routine of sitting down and typing up my work. Now that I have finally given my self the time to do my work it seems that I can not stop updating my blog. I suppose for me the hard part is over and now that my blog is up I do not see why I should keep it up to date.

Hi Sanana - it would be great to read more blog posts from you and see you getting going on the tasks for the module. One way is to establish a daily habit of reading blogs and reading the handbook and getting going. Look at the Active Experimentation node on Kolb's cycle of learning. I hope this helps. If you are finding it hard to get going you should contact your advisor. best wishes

Introduction

About Me

My name is Sanana Lewanika. I studying Drama since I was 15. I went to Barking College School of Performing Arts at the age of 16 for 2 years. I did 3 different styles of Dance which were Jazz, Tap and Street dance. I also took Singing lessons which was a compulsory part of the course. Within the course I had performed in 4 Plays, 3 Musicals theater productions and 2 Dance productions. After I successfully completed the course at college, I decided to carry on studying Drama.

At the age of 18 I started a Drama and Theater studies course at Middlesex, the course was taught at Barnet College. During my time on this course I was given my chances to work with a variety of people of different ages and abilities as well as myself. I have been able to work with different types of theater, from physical to Commedia De'll Arte plus different practitioners such as Bertolt Brecht, Stanislavski, Peter Brooke and Robert Le Page. The performances that we have done on this course have helped me to demonstrate how effective my listening plus communication skills are. These skills are essential when working as part of a team as they enable me to be understanding and helpful when working within a group.

This course also helped me to develop my written skills. The one thing that I have found as what could be possible down fall, is the ability to do written work on time. I have always found that I’m the type of person who leaves things to the night before to get done. I however do get my work done, I tend to work well under pressure.

Once I finished my 2years on the FD course I can wait to get started on my BA Hons. I completed the course in June 2010 and I have now started the BAPP course at Middlesex, it took me nearly 6 months to get back in to Uni. I’m very happy that I’m the course now because I finally get the chance to complete what I’ve started at Barnet.
