Education
Oyster bay primary government school rodrigues (1973-1976)
Other trainings: as an autodidact I spend a great deal of time in libraries or on educative websites. I also avail myself of instruction from family members, friends, or other associates. Besides the obvious reasons of wanting to improve myself, prepare myself for success, and just learn as much as I can, self-education has offered me a few extra benefits: I can learn at my own pace, and in my own way. It allowed me to follow my passions, and learn about things that excite me. There`s no price for failure, but there`s every reward for success.
