What drew you to the program you are studying at Athena? Is it living up to your expectations?

I decided to enroll at Athena because of the flexibility of the program and the amount of time one would take to complete it. The course content also influenced me in deciding to enroll for this program.

What would you like to do after completing this course from Athena?

I would like to be a business advisor and also a lecturer in some universities so as to postively impact the lives of young people.

What do you think makes a great teacher?

Being available when needed by the students and possessing a willingness to assist at any given time. Befriending students also makes one a great teacher.

Taking the responsibility of being a lecturer at MANCOSA, one of the institutions in Eswatini.

A perfect vacation to me is being locked up in a room alone with all gadgets removed.

Which fictional character (character from a film, book, TV series, play) would you like to be friends with?

I would like to be friends with Boxer from the novel Animal Farm (1945) written by George Orwell. Boxer is a hardworking, but naive cart horse in the novel. He is shown as the farm's most dedicated and loyal labourer.
