About Me

My name is Sheila a level 200 university student at the university of Education offering French Education. I grew up in Dansoman a suburb of Accra. I stay with my big brother and my younger brother in Accra, I am the second born out of three children.
I completed my Junior High School with distinction and gained admission to one of the best senior high schools in the Ghana. From there I got admission to study a four year BA Degree in French Language and a two year Diploma in German Language for the 2016/2017 academic year.
When i completed senior high school, I started organizing and teaching the kids in my neighborhood to better their reading after school hours.
I like to read anything that I come across, I love working with computers and helping young children to read and write French and German Languages.

My Business

When school vacates I teach in a private school in Accra and I organize French classes for kids on weekends in my neighborhood. I started this when I gained admission to the university, I do Homeschooling for some of the kids of some lectures on campus on Tuesdays and Thursdays for a small amount at the end of the month. When I get the opportunity I assist some classmates and juniors in tutorials where they did not understand in the lecture room.
Through these small incentives I managed to pass through my level 100 academic life well. New academic year is here, 2017/2018 academic year is here, I hope to make an impart in the lives of children and get some money to support my tuition.

Loan Proposal

I would use $150 of the loan to buy new reading materials for the 2018 semester.
$300 to pay for my feeding and accommodation fees for the semester.
I will be taking up a volunteer work with the campus sports directorate.
Thank you!!

    With the help of the loan I will be able to buy reading books for the children in my community and teach them how to read during weekends.

    Reducing my installment amount will allow me to keep my on-time repayment score high, so that I can continue to qualify for loan size increases and other privileges.

    Happy new year in advance to our lenders.
    School is on recess and as part of my vacation activities I volunteered with the Triathlon Federation of Ghana, sponsored by Cowbell Ghana. It was a well attended event
