    7 Innovative Study Tips to Improve your grades: You, Will, Dominate That Exam.

    December 6, 2018 /

    For some people, learning comes naturally. No extra input is needed for them to achieve high grades. But, for others like myself, achieving high grades is a process. One that has many steps. Over the years I have added strategies and modified them but the basis has remained the same. I never considered my self a high achiever but to many people, I come off that way. O Well. My BACKSTORY (Feel free to skip over it) Ever since Preschool, I’ve been at the top of my classes. My big academic achievements started in Highschool where I was awarded Top Student (School Ranking) and Top CSEC Student. This also allowed…

    Serenity- A Poem by a Caribbean Poet Al Flemming.

    Serenity – By Al Flemming a Caribbean Poet and Author. Serenity Familiar. The wind commands the attention of not only my body, But my soul, As my very being is lifted gently by the salty surprise that each breath provides. A feeling all too familiar. My eyelids collapse for a mere moment as I feel truly at peace. Alas, This is when she catches me off-guard. Her waves creep up on me softly. Disguised by the spell which the wind has cast. Her touch is gentle. Her waves brush my feet as the sand massages my sole. But she is a shy one. When I turn to greet her, She…
