      Hi gamer boy 🙂

      My job is not very hard, but it does require some care and accuracy to make sure everything goes smoothly so that I can do my job well.

      A big part of my job is to write and edit articles about computer science for our schools computing magazine (CS4FN) and website so I need to research the topic I want to write about and then find the right words to say what I need to say, and make sure that what I’ve written is accurate. If I’m writing about a particular person’s research I might want to contact them and ask if they’re happy with what I’ve said. That isn’t particularly difficult but I do need to take care when writing to busy people to be polite and respectful of their time.

      Another part of my job is supporting computing teachers – we have a dedicated website for them and I add new information and free resources that my colleagues create. I also keep in touch with them regularly, to make sure that they know when we have new things for them.

      So I spend a lot of time writing, which isn’t hard, but I need to take care over it. I certainly hope I’ve not made any typos in my answer!! 😉
