Isabel

GED has helped me present my best self to the world and remember it is never too late to achieve what you want in life.

Isabel is a student from Zimbabwe, currently living in Johannesburg, South Africa. She is a single mother working as a domestic worker.  Isabel earned her GED credential by believing that it could bring a better future for her and her family. Her dream was to go back and finish high school.

“GED has helped me present my best self to the world and remember it is never too late to achieve what you want in life.”

GED is a flexible program for her; it allowed her to study anywhere at her own pace because she needs to work and take care of her daughter at the same time. Isabel did her self-study from Kaplan textbooks and other online sources. The reason she completed her credential is to make her daughter proud and be a role model for her loved ones.

Now that Isabel has earned her credential, she hopes to continue her studies at University of the People in the U.S. and plans to start her beauty therapist business.
