How did you get your job?
My qualifications made me eligible for the job and upon advice from someone in the Teaching Service, I submitted my application. The opportunity came 4 years later, and I was ready and willing to make the change from working at the financial institution, of which I gave 10 years of service, to this new environment.
If you could do it all over again, would you choose the same path for yourself?
Oh yes! I am a better person today because of this choice and the experiences I have gained.
What are some tips to give to persons wanting to follow your career path?
It is important to note that everyone’s experience in life will be different. Here are some things I’ve learned along the way:
- Follow your dream: Only you really know what you want, and you will enjoy the results.
- Embrace opportunities: Analyse them carefully and make informed decisions. They can make your life better.
- Deal with doubt/fear: If ignored they will resurface and can paralyse you.
- Remember champions never give up: Even if you stumble or fall, get up and go again.
- Trust in God: He will never leave you nor forsake you. You will need comfort when days are hard.
