I believe I am a leader and role model because…

My classmates come to me seeking for extra help in chemistry and I help them with passion.

I believe I have a positive, ‘never give up’ attitude because…

When I don’t do well in my tests I go straight to my lecturers and let them correct my mistakes. I don’t sit down and cry that I didn’t do well. This helps me to stay positive towards my dream.

I believe the only way to success is through…

Hard work, teamwork and positive mindset.

I have overcome the following challenges…
