Hello, I'm Leia Fee and I'm here at Swansea Airport on a very lovely day – for once...
-
I come from Pembrokeshire orginally but I came to Swansea to go to university
-
I just adore the place, it's lovely.
-
When I was little I used to go to airshows at Brawdy. My grandad was in the RAF.
-
As an adult I then had a birthday present of a flying lesson and it was just so good.
-
About 8 years ago now I started flying and I've been flying from Swansea aiport for about 6 years of that.
-
To start with it feels like it's very difficult but things come with time.
-
Talking on the radio is like learning another language.
-
When you first start using the radio in the aeroplane, it's hard - you can't understand anything.
-
It's totally like another language, but with time it comes
-
and you can hear your own callsign and know what they're saying.
-
I did a bit of Welsh in school but when the time came to choose GCSEs
-
there was a choice of going to Paris if you did French or going to Llangranong if you did Welsh
-
and I'd been to Llangrangog once and I was very sick and it rained all the time! So I choose French.
-
I use Say Something in Welsh on the website too,
-
it works well with traditional classes because SSIW has a big focus on just talking and talking
-
Not worrying if there's mistakes or anything like that.
-
In a way the language of SSIW is more natural than classroom language. SSIW is the real language.
-
After leaving school I started working in the education world. I teach computers to adults.
-
I would like to use Welsh in work,
-
I'd like to teach through the medium of Welsh
-
there's not a lot of things available so I'd like to develop my Welsh to a level I can use it to teach other people.
-
I'm very pleased to have learned.
-
There we are, I'm ready to go!
-
Byee
