“I think I learned to trust myself more, and am leaving this pre-apprenticeship feeling like I am more capable than I previously thought.
The moment that setting up and operating the Tilmor cultivating tractor finally clicked for me and I felt confident enough to do it on my own stands out! It is the skill I am most proud of mastering during my pre-apprenticeship.”
