My name is Onyekwere Samson Chimezirim. I'm a Nursing Student. I have achieved many skills that lead me to this course especially on subject and tutorials. I know that the best way to learn is to understand what your role model teaches you. How go the person is both in relationship, reasoning and thorough understanding of that him or she is teaching.
That's what I'm here to do, to help my fellow students. To teach the best I know and the best I can give to them. To create the best relationship with them in a friendly environment. To give them a thorough understanding of their subjects and assignments. So that's why I will say, if you have a subject or an assignment that looks difficult or confusing, I'm willing and ever able to help you with it.
Thank you.
