My experiences this year have been fairly good. The start of classes was similar to last year - online education, which is rather monotonous and boring, The ray of light though was the announcement that we would go back to face-to-face teaching from November. This is much better and makes it easier to understand the different topics. Now we are back at school, I hope this will be a good year.
I am now following technical courses and have had to study additional subjects such as accountancy. This was quite problematic as lessons are still online and the teacher was often absent. I have tried to overcome these problems though and I managed to get a good mark overall this term.

    Emmaculate Mueni

    Kenya

    Emmaculate is the last born in a family of three; one sister and one brother. Her parents rely on subsistence farming for livelihood, which has been greatly affected by the changing climate. While in primary school, Emmaculate spent most of the time at home while the other students were at school. This was because of lack of finances to cater for some of the requirements at school. This did not stop her but instead propelled her towards achieving her dream of becoming a cardiologist in order to save lives. Her role model is Barack Obama and she likes his phrase of ‘Yes we can’. Moreover, she likes reading story books during her free time.
