I will quote Nelson Mandela when he said ” A Good head and a good heart are always a formiddable combination”. When you have passion for study you will get there no matter what. I am coming from a low life background, When i matriculated it was nothing in my family, being raised by a single parent with no work wasn’t easy. I started working as a domestic worker but things were not good until my mum get pension for her illness and i enroll to the EFT college, then worked at the construction company but it was not enough until i enroll with Oxbridge College – HRM to flourished my career. I am pleased to say that I have already finished past three assignment with “A” symbol and waiting for the last assignment.
