difference learning styles and working methods. With each student having an unique style, more instructors and counselors are vital, not for each student individually, but for those individual students who are seeking extra assistance.

I had an employment in 1999 after completion of the ordinary level secondary school. Since I had no money to go to school, I did private high school, and thank God, I went to Teachers College after that. Yet the plan for a BA degree is still pending, I don’t know until when. I have many responsibilities under my care. I cannot secure a loan for education,…

Meet Jozina Campbell. She’s a high achiever finishing her years in high school, and she joined the Gateway program for successful, college-bound African-American and Hispanic students. To Jozina, Gateway was an opportunity to seize—the first step onto the path that would take her to success. But it took up a lot of time from the things she enjoyed most, like her academics or her leadership roles in the community.

This sets up each individual to discover their interests and hone the necessary skills to ultimately get accepted into the college of their choice. For…
