By the way, I lived in rural South Africa (western part of the Mpumalanga province) from 2006–2008. I had the opportunity to visit Cape Town twice during my time there. It's a unique city!
Good work! Are you using some of the study and memory tips?
My husband lived and worked in South Africa for a few years, close to Kruger. Over the past 25 years he was there many times for work, also in Botswana, Mozambique, Kenya, Uganda and Ethiopia. We both lived in Zimbabwe in the 80s. Also a lovely country then.
Enjoy ‘collecting’ knowledge!

My name is Preeti Maharjan. I am from Nepal. Currently, I am studying Masters of Public Health at The University of Adelaide. I did my Masters in Medical Micrbiology from Tribhuwan University, Nepal. I worked for Mycobacterial Research Laboratories, under The Leprosy Mission Nepal ( a charity funded organisation) for 4.5 years as "Research Technical Officer'.
However, i am optimistic of developing and exploring new idea that will help in me my professional development.
I like to keep learning something always-maybe a form of art, maybe computer program and now indulged in learning different topics online, mainly Coursera.
If you have any suggestions for courses in marketing, please do let me know. And if I can help you in anyway, let me know.

My name is Faseeha and I am from Rawalpindi, Pakistan.I have done my MS in Human Nutrition and Dietetics.. I am 25 and by profession I am a dietitian.I have chosen the course of understanding obesity. I have joined this community and Coursera to learn more about my field and get experienced. Interaction with new ones will be challenging for me because I am a little bit selectively social. Any how i ll try my best to learn this course in enthusiastic way... I believe if you do not do the mistakes you do not learn.. I want to get a doctorate degree in human nutrition and dietetics.

My name is Donato Ruben Diele from Bacchus Marsh Victoria Australia.
I am 63 years old male, born in Gravina in Puglia South of Italy, migrated to Melbourne Australia in July 1969 with mother and father with six other siblings. We settled in Moonee Ponds and then moved to West Sunshine in 1972 Victoria and began a new life in this wonderful country Australia. I am the third older child, one older brother, and one older sister and four younger sisters. We all went to school according to our age to primary and secondary schools including my father and mother to English classes to learn the language and to adopt the new culture. My father was a great influence in my life, he was involved with the community and also with the local council and the Victorian Government and a representative of Italians migrants in Australia and Italy and an artist and great humanitarian. I came from a family deeply rooted in the community that we lived in and wanted so much to be part of it.
I am now a Multicultural Ambassador for Mental Health Foundation Australia. The journey that led me to become a Multicultural Ambassador for MHFA started, because of the great influence that I had from my father and the personal experience caring for family members with mental health illness. This personal experience has driven me to become an advocate for better mental health and awareness and offer support for sufferers and the caregiver and to abolish stigma and ignorance. We all fear what we don’t know. This position means a lot to me and to see that mental health is well promoted among all cultures and well understood among, communities, indigenous, gender, race, languages, and multicultural groups.
I am now an active member of Carers Victoria Australia, Accredited Member of Mental Health First Aid Australia, and a member of Beyond Blue, member of Red Cross Australia, member of Careline Connection Team, Counsellor Psychotherapist at Bethel Counselling Services. These appointed positions are my passions and driving force in life, I made this my calling in life to see that mental health is well promoted among all cultures, indigenous, gender, race, languages, and multicultural groups and understood. Regards, Donato R Diele Melbourne Victoria.
My name is Martin Jumbam. I live in Douala in Cameroon, Central Africa. I studied translation and conference interpretation at Georgetown University in Washington DC and worked for several years for an American oil company in my home city. I have since retired and now work on a freelance basis for various clients at home and abroad. I have also been teaching English to French-speaking students for several years now but I realized that I needed professional guidance to make my output even better. That is why I have joined this Coursera program to fine-tune my skills in the teaching of English to people whose first language is not English.
In my spare time, I run radio and television programs on a Catholic radio and television station in my home city, and I also contribute articles to local newspapers, particularly Catholic publications. I am looking forward to acquiring and fine-tuning my teaching skills that will enable me to better mentor and coach my class students.
