The biggest mistake CSWs make over the summer

Summer is meant to be a break, but if you’re a Communication Support Worker (CSW), it can also be the perfect time to level up. Yet most BSL learners and CSWs make the same mistake every year…

They wait until September to start panicking.

They assume they’ll figure it out when the term begins. But then the first class hits. A new student. An unexpected scenario. A tutor who doesn’t understand your role.

And suddenly, you’re overwhelmed, unprepared, and back to square one.

Sound familiar?

Here’s the truth: confidence in your CSW role doesn’t just show up; it’s built.
