Excellent problem solving skills
Working at Nkumbulo Secondary school as a technician has been very fulfilling. I learnt a lot about working with professionals. I work closely with educators on a daily basis, giving them support regarding computers and the usage of the smartboards. it gave me great pleasure to resolve their ICT issues. I also enjoyed solving technical issues on the smartboards and laptops. There were no challenges I couldn't resolve except for dealing with impatient educators and with the stakeholders.
Pros: A great exposure to the technical support field
Cons: dealing with hardware failures

Flexilble worker with high level of innovation is what is advised by our district director.
I usually start at the office and review some duties performed in the previous day and do some touch ups, check emails and respond where needed and print those that needs to be disseminated to the relevant staff members for action. My main responsibility is administrating Public Relations and communications in the district, do marketing related duties where we engage with a number of stakeholders that holds interest within the basic education sector. I am a team player and can perform working under pressure and independently, in our structure survival is based on how interactions with others is practiced. I have learnt to think out of the box and work even under inadequate resources, but still perform as anticipated by the management. I enjoy being part of an ongoing process, I hate to fail but learn from it if it happens. I dont like being incompetent. Most challenging aspects of my job entails attending to issues or crisis that are detrimental to the district's name.
Pros: Great chances for growth and innovativeness
Cons: pressurising media that needs quick responses
