I am the only child in the family. Since I was younger I have always dreamed of becoming a teacher. I want to be a teacher of English.
After finishing secondary school, I didn’t pass the exam to enter public high school. I thought about getting a job, because I thought I couldn’t go to private school. It was partly because I felt discouraged, but primarily because we could not afford it.
There are many things that helped my dream come true. My parents have encouraged me a lot and the scholarship I received helped me continue my education. Without the scholarship, my family would never have been able to afford the school fee.
The scholarship was very important to me. It was both a spiritual and material gift that gave me more energy and provided necessary conditions so that I could continue studying. It was not just important to me, but to all other poor students.
My advice to my friends would be that they should never give up. They should keep trying to achieve their dreams, however
difficult it seems. Study hard and work hard.
If I didn’t have this opportunity, I know I would have gone a different path. I cannot imagine how my life would have turned out.
