I'm such a BCM fan and I'd want you to do a post on what makes an A person.

Also, I appreciate the candour that you pour into your newsletters especially this one, even more because I currently teach and I'm stopping to evaluate my teaching methods; why did that guy score zero even when he follows in class, why did someone I thought very bright submit an empty sheet, lol, a whole litany of why's.

I absolutely loved Vanishing Acts. Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite writers ever.

Thanks for sharing this.

I'm lucky that when it came to school, my mom wanted me to be myself, but my dad was a bit more academically demanding.

I also think that Nigeria can do better with its educational system to be honest. It's not our fault some of us need special attention.

Congratulations on your appraisal and do write a post on how to get that kind of appraisal with a side note on how to get better academically.

😊

Hello Ope! Thank you for this letter. As someone who's under a bit of pressure (academically), it feels good to know that I'm not always the problem... Congratulations on your A+ at work... I'll read the things you enjoyed this week. Thanks again :-)
