Hello Jonathan,
It is a wonderful day to hear your post again because it is a long time since I got your post.
Even though, how have you been till now? On my side am doing great on both studies and health at all.
I am so happy to hear that you are interesting on reading many text books which contains encouragement contents as they build you mind on the same way as you said.
And I have passed through your post and I discovered many things you learnt from the book of Happiness Project. Due to that even on my side I have gained a great knowledge on how I can make my dreams to become true.
Also I loved your content on the issue of friendship that is to suggest a new friends and through that, I got you.
And I will find the same text so that I can read as well as to analyze different ideas discussed in the text.
Look forward to hear you gain.
Lucy.

Hello Karen,
It is a great day for me to hear your post again because it is so long since we talk to each other.
Also on my side am doing very well with my schooling programs as well as my health status.
I am feeling happy to hear that Madame Judy is nearly to come in Tanzania because through her coming it is a real symbol that she love us. Also due to that we seem to benefit more because when she comes we gain new things where by her people that walks with her they teach us many things in which we benefit from it.
And now we are in preparations of different events in which we can show to our visitors.
I hope we shall enjoy her coming on this semester.
look forward to hear you again
Lucy.

Hello Students,

I just finished a book called The Happiness project by Gretchen Rubin.
She is taking us through her year-long process of finding happiness in all areas of life.
I enjoy the book very much and would like to share with you some of the key points that I found insightful:

1. All the data proves: we need long-term relationships, involving people with whom we can confide, and a sense of belonging.
3. Be generous. Studies show that your happiness is often boosted more by providing support to other people than from receiving that support yourself.
4. Cut people slack. Do you find yourself dishing out judgments during your times of stress- the simple act of letting it go (or not even bringing it to judgment) would bring happiness all around.
6. How do you make new friends? Suggestions from the book:
• Smile more frequently.
• Actively invite others to join a conversation.
• Create a positive mood.
• Open a conversation.
• Try to look accessible and warm.
• Show a vulnerable side and laugh at yourself.
• Follow others' conversational leads.
• Ask questions.
I hope you find the above suggestions useful and helpful. Have a wonderful summer!

Best,
Jonathan Gilbert

Dear Students,

Last Sunday was the last day of my 2017 school year at my university. My sister graduated after four years with the same university. My family and I attended her graduation. There were several speeches presented by different speakers to the graduating students. I was moved by one in particular so I’d to share with you one of the key points of this speech: the importance of giving back.

“Giving back is where you give, and then nothing happens. No benefits for you, no recognition, nothing tangible gets sent your way. Your biggest and sole reward is the realization that you’ve made a significant change in someone’s life. And if not “significant” then a positive change nevertheless.”

So students, regardless if you will be graduating or continuing on with the same school, let us give back to our community whatever and whenever we can. If you have specific talents, teach others what you know, help out others whenever you are able. As the speaker said, privilege comes with responsibility. We all have the privileges of getting an education; therefore, we all have the responsibility to help others who are less fortunate.
Have a wonderful summer!
Cheers,
Jonathan Gilbert

My fellow students, time just flew so fast. This semester is close to its end. You all must be very busy preparing for your final exams.

I hope you are all doing a great job this semester. Some of you graduated at end of the last year. You must very anxious waiting for your notification which A-level school you are assigned to.

Doesn't matter where you are going, the most important is the goals your set and your determination to accomplish your golds.

The Chinese always say 90% is hard work and only 10% is your talent. You could accomplish everything as long as you want to.

During your break, I would like you to write down what your major accomplishing and one thing which makes you proud of yourself that you would like to share with everybody. The things your did which will make me so proud of you and encourage me to continue to support you for your future school years. My goal for all of you, one day for your to go to College/University, You are somebody everybody will proud of you.

The way to do is that you set your final goal, the goal between one step a time and try reach it then go for the next goal, eventually, you will reach your final destination.

Best regards,
Judy

My name is Brend, and I am 17 years old, in 11th grade. I have just finished my final exams in school, they were all very hard. I wonder how school is going for you? What is your favorite subject to learn about? Also, I have a question for you. If you had 1 wish to make anything come true, what would it be?

Dear Students,
I would like to share with you an excellent article about how to study effectively.

How to study effectively:
1. Read the chapters before you go to the class lecture about it. It helps to know what the professor is talking about before you get there.
2. Question what you’re reading, and test yourself on it often. Generate questions after you read to go over concepts, compare and contrast, and make yourself generate examples.
3. Practice retrieving the information without your notes or book, and do it in the same way you are tested. If you are required to do essays, multiple choice, or fill in the blank, practice using the information in that way.
4. Do not study isolated facts. I only encourage notecards to work on what you are struggling with. They’re good for quick study breaks in between class or work, or to review things you struggle with before a test. Knowledge isn’t obtained in small isolated facts. Key terms and definitions aren’t going to help you really comprehend the material.
5. After the class, re-read the chapter and highlight what you think is important. After class, you may be more prepared to focus on certain sections of material.
6. Go through and highlight what you have difficulty remembering. You might want to make these points into flash cards as well. Keep the cards and review them before a test or quiz. Isolated facts aren’t how you should study, but keeping that card with you and looking over it before the test can be beneficial.
7. Spend 15 minutes a night, at least, on each class’ study guide. This kind of spaced out study helps encode the information into your long-term memory and will help you recall it faster and more accurately later.

This article helps me to study effectively. I hope you find it as helpful to your daily study as I do.

Cheers,
Jonathan Gilbert

Through this union people of such countries have united into good way without blood shedding also we are cooperating well on doing different things especially in social, political and even economical aspects.
In general we are thanking God a lot because he makes our country to have peace internal and external areas by doing so TANZANIA will continue to remain an Island of peace.

    I have experience planting vegetables because my parents do that. Also, we have a garden at our home. Therefore, that is experience I have had in life. Apart from that experience, I also had a difficult experience when I failed my geography exam. That enabled me to learn how to cooperate with other students. I was so proud of myself when I performed well in my national exam. The memorable and happiest moment in my life will be when I reach my dream of being pilot. I will be so happy. My biggest dream is to be a pilot. I will get there through studying hard in physics, geography, and mathematics. After reaching my dream, I will help my parents to modify their cultivation system and to become professional farmers. From there they can expand the area of cultivation into a large plantation. Once I get a chance to have the power to change my country, I will build many airports in each region and some districts. This will help in the flexibility of transportation in my country.

    Notable experiences in my life are, first, passing my standard seven examination and, second, entering secondary school. My most difficult experience was when I started to learn English. I have learned that if you want to do something, you have to work hard. I felt proud was when I entered secondary school. My most memorable and happiest thoughts are from when I celebrated at my birthday party. My dream is to be an electrical engineer. I will get there through studying hard and doing well in science subjects. If I had the power to change my country, I would like to improve the electricity supply especially in rural areas because there are shortages of electric power.

    Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.
