He seems to have a group of friends are also speak the same language as him (Kurdish). He always seems jolly and tells me that he wants to learn English. His English is quite good. At least he can communicate with me. I feel that I can rationalise this person. His swagger is cheeky smile and his bright eyes all seem to give the message that he wants to improve his personal situation. He has a social worker and lives in support housing.
I tell him about the voluntary class that is on offer. I tell in the types of activity it includes. He has told me before one point that he wants to learn more about computers, and I tried to negotiate with him the if he becomes the class you will learn more about computers. I never see him attend voluntary session.
I try many many times to convince him to who will be learning about IT and other skills they may be useful if he wants to get into the future educational course or a job of some sort. Most of his peer group either work at local car wash, or in restaurants, or not allowed to work. His English tutor tells me that he could do with some extra classes. I try every time I see him to say that the extra class may benefit him if he was to learn about computers. I speak to social worker on more than one occasion. The social worker tells me that the voluntary class is not necessarily suitable to the needs of someone like Devrim . I ask him why it's not suitable. But he doesn't have an answer.
I tried to speak to this young man and ask him what he wants to see in the afternoon classes. He doesn't have an answer.
