Ooh my word I have good news, Our end of semester results came out and I passed, Wait there’s more i even made it into the Top ten list of best students.

Words really fail me Yvonne on how I can explain how you took me from a failed CTA attempt to where I am now, How you were so patient with me, how you would continuously reach out. After my first failed attempt I had completely lost hope in ever becoming a Chartered Accountant, but you helped me pick myself up and to try again like I knew no pain. Thank you so much for holding my hand up until this date, Thank you for walking with me in this journey.

I remember after writing our first half of exams I came here crying of how tough they were and how I had lost hope in the future exams…. But you encouraged me to get up and to soldier on till the end… And here is the end!

Wow, I’m still short of words of how you helped me to never give up on me, my dreams my future… I’m literally now emotional Yvonne thank you so much.

Whenever you think of things going otherwise in your life, Just know there’s someone out there living full of hope because of you… Thank you

Good Day Yvonne
I hope this email finds you well.

Firstly I am extremely grateful for the opportunity you afforded me by sparing me some time from your extremely busy schedule.

I honestly can’t thank you enough for the talk we had about mindset and about my approach to my studying. The session was so friendly that I couldn’t believe I’m speaking to a senior lecturer and a professional whom I have been watching videos of for about 4 years. 

To me it felt like I spoke to an ‘educational psychologist’ who gave me the perfect therapy before my exams. You shifted my mindset from kind of a “fixed” mindset to a growth one, the reason I say this is you immediately recognised that I was fixed on revising notes I already knew without wanting to tackle the challenging stuff (questions, topics).

I loved the session so much, that I regretted not talking to you earlier (at the start of my CTA journey). Today we have millions of motivational speakers for students but having an educational coach is rare. Your practical methodologies are a game changer. EVERY ACCOUNTING AND NON ACCOUNTING STUDENT SHOULD speak to a coach like you before starting their academic journey so that they have the correct mindset and know how to approach their degree. 

Pardon me for this late feedback, and in all honesty i am so positive about passing my CTA that i am actually looking forward to prep session for ITC in future.

I pray many struggling students find you sooner so that you can help them in their journey as well.

The road to overcoming our challenges is very lonely. The challenges we face are far beyond failure. The academic help we get is only but a part of the tools we need to overcome our challenges.

Having a coach like Yvonne may provide you with the realisation that you may distract yourself from studying .Identify the actual productive time you spend on studying as well as some tools to find the weaknesses in how you study.

The tools and skills given to me by Yvonne were not only academically focussed but had a dual purpose. The first was my personality which is what drives our studies and approaches to challenges. The second were tools on which I can improve and re-look at my study routine.

The journey taken with Yvonne will not be easy. Do not be afraid to engage her in the methods provided. Yvonne does understand individuality and will adapt her methods to help ease some challenges.

The introspection needed will seem tiresome but so is failure and not knowing the reason for it. Search in the tools provided by Yvonne on general improvement and approaches to completing any task.

I recommend you drive the journey taken with Yvonne. She will not solve your challenges but provide you with some tools to do so.

I wish you everything of the best in achieving your goals !

ITC Candidate

I’m grateful that I found Yvonne at the time that I did. I was close to exams and I wasn’t confident that I had covered enough to pass.
Her coaching really helped me change my focus in terms of how I was studying, and as a reason I ended up going through more questions than I probably would have gone through before my exams as I was still very fixated with thoroughly knowing the theory. This in turn boosted my confidence levels for each module (including management accounting and auditing which weren’t my favourites). She helped me get out of my own head and helped to point out some of the bad habits I had developed along the way to “protect myself”.
I especially loved how on bad days when I didn’t cover what I had planned to cover, as much as she didn’t enable me, she still didn’t make me feel worse than I already felt but instead encouraged me to do better the next day. Thank you very much Yvonne!!
