I am divorced with two children. I am from the kumasi township in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. I am the third born of my parents and we are six in all in the family. I attended my basic school education at St. Augustine's primary school till I wrote my final education
which landed me at kumasi Senior High School. I completed with a considerable grade and was able to attend a Teachers Training College where I attained a diploma in education. I am currently teaching at Akab Complex School for the mean time though I wish to continue to attain a degree by the next two years. It has not been an easy road coming this far with so much ups and downs but I am very grateful to say so far so good. I got married again last year after gaining employment at my current school, I often spend time to teach my children in study areas they find difficult and I love to cook also.
I am committed to helping my children achieve great things in education for the family and be of good use to the community. My first child who is called Augusta is at Junior High level at Jinijini Primary School and Akua who is my second born is at primary 5 at Akab Complex School. Augusta says she wants to be a nurse and Akua also so says she wants to be a teacher like myself. Though they both do not know want it entails to become the career that they have chosen,I know helping them achieve their goals will help them and the family but for the community also. My divorced husband has not given much attention they need to grow and become what they want to therefore I need help in terms of money to be able to fund their education properly hence my loan proposal to Zidisha.
I need about $5 to add to my already savings to pay for my child's school fees. She loves to study and very good in class due to the close attention that I give her all the time. Akua wishes to be a teacher like myself in future so I will need this amount to be to pay her school fees and also give a considerable attention to my extended family also.
I am a school teacher and I often organise vacation classes for school children in the kumasi township. This will enable me make money and repay the loan. Thank you
