CASE STUDY - KAREN HODGKINSON
Essential Skills Provide New LifeOpportunities Thirty-two year old, Karen Hodgkinson of North Wales isa key figure within her local community, working as afull-time volunteer, as the Centre Manager for two localcommunity centres and also as Chairwoman of the localcommunity group. She not only provides a vital role foran important community service, but also is a leadingfigure in organising many local events.
Karen has not always been such a confident and leadingfigure however. Karen left school with no qualificationsand at the time was determined that she would not return to learning after a number of bad experiences. Itwas after the birth of her three children, that Karen decided that she needed to better herself and still unsureof the benefits that College could offer, she approached acommunity group to help with her quest.
“I had no qualifications and when job applications wereasking for Maths and English I knew that I had to dosomething. I got involved with the Communities Firstgroup in my area who signposted me to an Essential English course provided by Deeside College.”
Despite her reluctances in 2005 Karen enrolled on herfirst course, provided by the College but offered at thecommunity centre where she had also begun to
volunteer. “It was so much different to what I thought itwould be. I was with other adults, everything seemed alot more laidback than how I remember school, yet I waslearning a lot more. Things just clicked.”
Karen has progressed from this initial course onto manymore and now has qualifications in English, Maths, WordProcessing and Health and Safety and using her new skillson a daily basis, in her job and also to help her childrenwith their homework. Karen also went on to win the accolade of Essential Skills Learner of the Year at the Deeside College annual awards ceremony 2011.

ASTUDIAETH ACHOS - KAREN HODGKINSON
Sgiliau Hanfodol yn CynnigCyfleoedd Newydd am Oes Mae Karen Hodgkinson o Ogledd Cymru yn 32 mlwyddoed ac yn ffigwr allweddol yn ei chymuned leol. Mae’ngweithio llawn-amser fel gwirfoddolwr, yn Rheolwr arddwy ganolfan gymunedol a hefyd yn gadeirydd y grwpcymuned lleol. Nid yn unig mae hi’n cyflawni swyddogaeth hollbwysig mewn gwasanaeth cymunedol hanfodol, ond mae hefyd ar flaen y gad wrth drefnu nifero ddigwyddiadau lleol.
Nid oedd Karen, fodd bynnag, mor hyderus na mor barodi arwain bob amser. Gadawodd Karen yr ysgol heb yr uncymhwyster, ac ar y pryd hynny, wedi sawl profiad gwael,‘roedd yn benderfynol o beidio dychwelyd at ddysgu.Wedi geni ei thri phlentyn, fodd bynnag, penderfynoddKaren fod angen iddi geisio gwella’i hun, a gan nad oeddyn sicr o’r manteision y byddai Coleg yn eu cynnig, aethat grŵp cymunedol i ofyn am gyngor.
“Doedd gen i ddim un cymhwyster, a phan oedd ceisiadau am swyddi yn gofyn am Maths a Saesneg‘roeddwn yn gwybod fod yn rhaid i mi wneud rhywbeth.Cysylltais â grŵp Cymunedau yn Gyntaf yn fy ardal i, abu iddyn nhw ddangos i mi fod Coleg Glannau Dyfrdwyyn cynnig cwrs Saesneg Sylfaenol.”
Yn 2005, a dal braidd yn anfoddog, cofrestrodd Karen arei chwrs cyntaf, a ddarparwyd gan y Coleg ond a gynhaliwyd yn y ganolfan gymunedol ‘roedd eisoes wedi
dechrau gwirfoddoli ynddi. “’Roedd mor wahanol i’r hyn‘roeddwn i wedi’i ddychmygu. ‘Roeddwn i gydag oedolion eraill, ac ‘roedd popeth gymaint mwy hamddenol na ‘dwi’n ei gofio o ddyddiau ysgol, ond‘roeddwn i’n dysgu llawer iawn mwy. Yr union beth i fi!”
Mae Karen wedi symud yn ei blaen wedi’r cwrs cychwynnol hwn, ac erbyn hyn mae ganddi gymwysterau mewn Saesneg, Maths, Prosesu Geiriau ac Iechyd a Diogelwch. Mae’n defnyddio’i sgiliau newyddyn ddyddiol yn ei swydd, a hefyd i helpu ei phlant gyda’ugwaith cartref. Cafodd Karen hefyd ei hanrhydeddu âgwobr Dysgwr Sgiliau Hanfodol y Flwyddyn yn seremoniflynyddol Coleg Glannau Dyfrdwy 2011.
