    God bless you Chidera, I returned to the academic world after 3 decades, so its a very different World now. You have taught me a whole lot. As an Executive, I have sent your link to so many people in the last few months. I really wish I had seen you earlier. Well Done.

    When our education system was top notch in Nigeria we used to be the envy of the world. Not anymore. Education in naija was tough, you were run ragged with teachers and lecturers making students lives difficult I did my first and second degrees in the UK. The difference in the education are content and exposure. You are encouraged to enjoy the subject. For example, you go in for the next lecture on say financial economics and the lecturer is talking about how the market has reacted to a government announcements. So the subject continue to be relevant to what is happening around you, you can feel it, sense it, touch it what ever you want to call it.. So u understand better and you never forget. In naija, it's was all text books that were written and published donkey years ago that are of no relevance to what's happening today. Lecturers where not doing research and constantly updating themselves on subjects they are teaching because such environments did not exist. And exams where set not to test your understanding of a subject. And students were more of "gberu gbeso" that is, you read to pass the subject and you forget about it.

    Hello Chidera, your videos are truly inspiring and very encouraging 💪🏾 . Question; Did you have to work to raise your school fees while you studied? If you did I’d like to know (if you don’t mind sharing)how you were able to balance both and still ace a distinction and the possible challenges you faced self funding as an international student . This would be very helpful information, thanks again.

      In my opinion, LaTex is mainly for STEM related papers especially when you have to put in a lot of mathematically formula and symbols. Otherwise, you might just want to use whatever word processing software that's recommend by your lecturer/faculty or the one you're more familiar with.
