About

During my standard seven national examinations, I had an eye illness. From this I learned that your health has to be checked regularly. This moment is the one which inspired me to become an optician. I have to study very hard so as I can reach my dream of becoming an optician. The happiest moment when I felt proud of myself was when I scored division one of point seven and I took position number one in the class. The memorable moment was when I visited Manyara National Park through the sponsorship of my teacher. After I reach my dream, I will pay back my community by giving them education about how eye defects are caused and how to prevent them. I will help WEF by volunteering in several activities concerning the World Education Fund. When I have power to change in my country, I would like to change the system of education from much theory to more practice.
