    MY PERSONAL STATEMENT

    I view education as a powerful and versatile tool that if wielded in the right manner can bring
    about change leaving behind a lifelong impact whoever comes into contact with it. Being born
    and raised in Kenya, I have seen alot of people close to me, people with ability to bring change
    in the society fail to do so due to lack of proper knowledge. From a young age therefore, I have
    always devoted myself to being a pillar of change to the community especially through teaching
    with an intent of eradicating illiteracy to those willing yet incapable of finding it hence being a
    mentor to aspiring young people who want to shape their own narratives and futures.

    The drive to educate has led me to volunteer in some of the upcoming educational institutions
    in Kenya such as Islamia Adult centre and Visions of Alberta secondary school as a history and
    swahili teacher as well as offering guidance and counselling to learners with troubled
    backgrounds.

    Alongside my degree at Mount Kenya University, I have authored two swahili books and one
    history book that I am in the process of writing. That aside, I have one year work experience as
    a teacher in Our Lady of Fatima Secondary School. My work placement at Our Lady of Fatima as
    history and swahili teacher has been one of the most interesting yet exhausting experience in
    my life, and although it was both emotionally and physically draining, it instilled a resolute
    desire to practice teaching as a career and even take it to the next level.

    The experience was exciting as it allowed me to express my love for history in the most active,
    creative and intellectual manner. I particularly enjoyed sharing my knowledge about
    controversial topics like evolution that seemed to elicit myriad criticism every single time with
    regard to different doctrines that have been inculcated by diverse learners.

    I am confident that studying my masters at Chowan University will provide me with an


    academic knowledge that I need for the future when I hope to begin educational reforms in
    Kenya and any other nation. Gaining academic knowledge at Chowan University will surely help
    me fulfill my mission of working in a global community dedicated to ensuring that every child,
    girls especially get free and uncompromised education. I want to learn how to integrate my
    local knowledge with the experience that I opt to get from Chowan University to create
    innovative solutions for educational advancement. The practical nature of this course, offered
    in your institution, strongly appeals to me as it integrates academic thinking and practical
    solutions.
    Quite simply, I want to study masters at Chowan University to equip me with a world class
    education that can enable me to turn my passion into solutions and be an agent of change for
    the current as well as the future generations all over the globe.
