Q: What is your recipe for success?

My recipe for success involves a positive mindset and efficient studying. Staying positive helped me to enjoy the journey and kept me motivated to try my best. And, as someone who is prone to procrastination, I found that dividing study material (and SBA tasks) into little bits each day helped lessen last-minute stress and delivered better results.

Q: How did you enjoy your time with Teneo? Any positive and memorable experiences?

I have to say that the two years I’ve spent at Teneo were full of ups and downs, but I really enjoyed my time here. For me, the combination of good times and challenges made my two years at Teneo worth it. I learned to manage my own time and enhanced my self-discipline. A memorable experience I like to look back on is the love-hate relationship I had with Physical Sciences over the past two years, and how, despite all the mental breakdowns and many times I wanted to give up, I ended up defeating the subject with a distinction. Persistence pays off.

Q: Do you have any particular teacher that was crucial to your success?

A teacher crucial to my success was definitely Mrs Jo-lene Stander, Tourism. Although I couldn’t be present in her classes due to having another class at the same time, I always enjoyed watching her class recordings. She always smiled, radiated enthusiasm and never failed to make me laugh. Her positive mindset left a lasting impression on me. And thanks to her encouragement, I’ve felt motivated to study harder and to stay positive until the end. Thank you, Ma’am!

Q: What are your plans for the future? Are you studying further? Or taking a gap year?

At the moment I am taking a gap year to explore my interests, work on my artistic hobbies, and take a break from academics. We all go through life at our own pace, so there’s no need to rush.

Q: Any tips for our 2023 Matrics?

To the Matrics of 2023, I would first like to say good luck with your final year. There are going to be fun times and there are going to be challenging times. So, it’s important to go into your last year with a positive mindset, even at times when everything seems hopeless. Tell yourself that you can do it, and believe that you can. Just try your best and embrace every opportunity and every challenge. And whenever you feel like you want to take a break, take a break — but don’t lose sight of your priorities.
