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.

    Matata

    Kenya

    Matata is a daring young boy who believes that success is often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable. He is the last born in a family of four. His parents are unemployed and largely depend on subsistence farming, which has been negatively affected by frequent severe droughts. Most of the rural roads in his village are very impassable and this has pushed him towards achieving his dream of becoming an engineer. Since Matata was a young boy, he has always liked playing football not only at home but also in school and he was the goalkeeper for his school team.
