Thank you so very much for all your help. I found the workshops incredibly useful. I am so happy with my mark and it's a big thanks to you, Tshediso. I improved from 25% to 62.5%. I can't thank you enough. I wasn't afraid to ask questions and your answers were always informative and detailed.

Ulwazi Olubanzi Academy helped me excel in my first year of Financial Accounting studies, improving my academic performance. The academy made my academic journey less stressful and seamless, and I achieved my academic goals with their support.

My experience: Ernest Hemingway wrote a six-word story, probably the shortest known to man. You asked me how I found Ulwazi, so here's my experience: life-changing. I don't think much more needs to be said
