At eleven, I started making shoes, and I now spend myfree time doing that.I became interested in making shoes when my cousin told me about an online shoe-making course that hewas doing. I immediately wanted to do one too. Mum booked(为……预约) me on a four-day course at the ICan Make Shoes school in London to see if I liked it, and then I did a ten-day course there in the summerholidays.
I loved the courses. On the longer one, I made four pairs of shoes! I couldn't believe it. The teacherswere excellent. That's what was best about the classes. They made us work really hard but they wanted alltheir students to have fun, too.
