Hi Feyi. I'm totally committed to moving to Canada. I completed my ECA in March, wifey put in for ECA too but due to the pandemic and ASUU strike we are still on it. I have also tried IELTS and I would have to rewrite it because I had a 6.5 in reading (also wifey is meant to do hers by 6 Nov).So you know how committed I am, I am also writing BCS by Nov to boost my crs score. It will really go a long way if I get to be 1 of lucky 8 winners of the section 2 of the give away. This will relief me of the financial stress of having to pay for IELTS again. P.S - I'm determined to Ace IELTS this time. thanks

I'm a mommy of two. I think our naija schools are doing a fantastic job pushing the kids to know this and that even at an early age but... Schooling abroad takes a twist in the sense that these kids ain't forced to learn how to read ABC and cram it for "craming sake" but are motivated on how to work with ABC, invent ABC and find ways on how ABC can develop their society. (if that makes any sense) over here we are forced to learn just to have that cert and fulfil all righteousness but it's a different ball game schooling over there.

@rwilsonweir5697 3 жыл бұрын

I am a secondary school educator in Ontario and I just wanted to say that I love how you have communicated what education abroad is like! You have described what we might call inquiry-based learning where the kids are encouraged to ask the questions that interest them within a broader topic and then given the tools and resources necessary to find those answers themselves. This strategy usually motivates kids to learn because they have some agency and choice rather than being told that they must learn something they feel that they have made the decision to learn themselves.
