If someone can give me the idea how to write it not copy. I have never been in this situation as I do not work for the NHS. Never had to do this sort of thing before.

Your assessor is a good person to talk to about this. If you have difficulty with writing etc, they can do oral questions.

They should also be able to explain how to structure the answers so you aren't writing loads of unnecessary info when you have already met the point.

Plus they should aim to observe you doing your job as much as possible

If you want to email, feel free - I'm an assessor on it.

TRYING TO REPLY TO YOUR EMAIL - IT KEEPS BOUNCING BACK - CAN YOU EMAIL ME YOUR ADDRESS, AND I'LL DO IT FROM MY OWN ACCOUNT!!
(sorry for the shouting - trying to get your attention!!)

Record yourself. Just talk like you would normally about the topic. Capture your ideas and the way it sounds best to you. Then go back and type down the parts that work. Editing it to make it flow will be easy once you capture the important parts.

If this promises to be a chronic problem for you, there are voice activated software programs that allow your computer to take dictation directly from you. "Dragon Naturally Speaking" is one but there are others. Such programs do require you to "train" your computer to your voice. It also helps if you learn to use dictation terms like "new paragraph," "comma," "paren," etc. (although that isn't essential, if you don't mind going back and adding those edits later).

Marshal your thoughts. Type out what you want to say as if you are talking. You will have a lot of words. When finished leave for an hour or longer if possible. Then read it through a paragraph at a time and cut out the unnecessary words but still retain the sense.
You will gradually learn to edit as you go.

Do you have some way of recording yourself, Maria? Try recording what you have to say on the subject, and playing it back (and replaying it) where you can type up what you've said. It might help to have someone ask you questions about the subject while you're recording. You might even try typing it up as a questions and answers session.

You might try a 'brainstorming' session too. Write down anything that comes into your mind on a sheet of paper (Start with the title in the middle of a sheet of paper ... i.e. Mental Health, and then jot down sub-titles such as 'who is affected?', 'what support is there?', 'who offers the support?', 'how do you go about getting support?', 'types of afflictions', 'what treatments are available?', 'laws affecting someone with a Mental Health problem' ... I'm sure you can go on to expand on this.)

Best of luck!

Just write as you think. Make notes of your thoughts (that you will understand!), then start typing from them. Don;t forget to go through with spell check afterwards and alter accordingly.
Good luck.

Write it the way you would say it. Get someone to read it and make suggetions for improvement.
