“I have always been passionate about Accounting since I started Grade 10 and 11 where I was inspired by my teacher Miss Fikile Ndlovu from Luthayi High School. She made me understand and love Accounting and always ensured that she had all the materials we needed. She would go over Grade 12 past papers and come up with various methods to solve the transactions which I still remember and use to date.”
