We see youths burdened by unrealistic expectations and internalised stress,

UNITAR’s education and experience have been a very informative, interesting, and thoughtprovoking addition to my teaching career. The focus on application of concepts taught rather than traditional route learning has helped me to think out of the box while addressing the learning and teaching outcomes of the students at my school,
said Shoba, who will be graduating from the Bachelor of Education (Honours) in TESL this November.

It was not always easy, but I learned to manage my time better. I planned things, set priorities, and sometimes had to sacrifice social time to keep up with assignments. My husband and teenage children were really supportive and helped, too. I tried to keep a balance, studying when I needed to, and making time for work and personal life.
