“Honestly, I believe that ABIS is a fantastic school. The campus is beautiful, and the teachers are great; hence if I could choose one aspect to remain constant, it would be the teachers we have at the moment.”
– Akram
Since when have you been studying at ABIS?
The school year of 2014-2015
What is your most memorable moment and why?
The most memorable moment I have experienced in ABIS is the cancelling of the exams due to the coronavirus. The cancellation of IB exams has never occurred before. Hence, this current period is unforgettable.
What / Who has been most inspirational to you at ABIS and why?
In ABIS, numerous teachers have inspired me at certain moments. For example, while doing the Math HL course online, many points are not explained thoroughly; hence I am unable to answer the similar problems. Mr. Mwita, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Adams always helped me develop my conceptual understanding and showed me different methods of approaching specific issues. These recollections are significant and influential.
What will you miss about ABIS when you leave?
I will miss all the teachers, friends, and memories I have made in the past five years.
What message would you like to leave behind for your juniors?
When the people around you tell you that you are unable to achieve something, prove them wrong, and when you fall in your journey always stand up, since the toughest routes grant the best results.
What are your dreams for the future?
I do not have a planned out future yet, but I am aware that I would like to achieve my master’s. I know that in the future, I want to be someone that other people look up to and that I am known for making a positive change in the world.
If you could come back in 10 years, what would you like to see not changed about ABIS and why?
Honestly, I believe that ABIS is a fantastic school. The campus is beautiful, and the teachers are great; hence if I could choose one aspect to remain constant, it would be the teachers we have at the moment.
Whom would you like to thank for making your IB journey successful and why?
I want to thank my parents for giving me the possibility of taking one of the most rigorous high-school programmes at a fantastic school. My parents have also motivated me consistently throughout my IB journey and are the main reason why it turned out to be successful.
