"Ma sha Allah. Congratulations my Sister, I'm currently final year student from the same university and department, It seems I know you there."

"A first class degree doesn’t make you a game changer. Not everyone is built for academics—and that’s fine. School rewards grades; the real world rewards value, execution, and resilience. Many successful business moguls weren’t first-class graduates. CGPA opens doors. What you build keeps them open.'
@Cooolibrihub said:
"You can definitely earn from teaching Arabic. I have done this. Taught Arabic for three years earning really good. Also you can start writing short stories, illustrated books in Arabic for children in and outside Nigeria. You can teach online to gain more reach. Success!"
