The scholarship enhanced her academic success: Lubna Ali’s journey with Leaders for Future
From the very moment I was accepted into the English language scholarship provided by Tawakkol Karman Foundation, new horizons were opened for my future. I was in desperate need of learning English as it is essential for my academic specialization, and my English level was not good before that.
The program restored my self-confidence and enhanced my potential for success and progress in my academic journey after the significant challenges I faced with the English language. Not only did it help improve my speaking skills, but it also broke the fear barrier and developed my effective communication skills with many people of different nationalities.
I have benefited from the program in several ways, most notably improving my reading and writing skills in English, enhancing my knowledge of the job market and its requirements, learning how to take advantage of opportunities and create them, improving my self-perception and the way others perceive me, feeling a sense of accomplishment and building my knowledge base, forming strong relationships with my colleagues and many esteemed professors, respecting time, and adhering to deadlines, among others.
I am still studying in the program, and with each progress I make, I feel deeply grateful to the activist Tawakkol Karman, the sponsor of this scholarship, and to everyone working at Tawakkol Karman Foundation. This program is a unique experience and represents an opportunity to develop my skills and improve my chances of securing excellent job opportunities in the future.
