Our students stories
“I tend not to look at things as a challenge but as an opportunity to improve. If something becomes a bit more complicated, the best thing to do is to step back and evaluate what you’re doing. “Is this worth my time?” – that is probably the biggest challenge I faced, learning how to answer that question and becoming better at managing my time and the minutes, hours or days I spend on something. Setbacks are a common thing in life and we just have to keep going and focus on the positive outcomes. João Marques Lima, Lisbon, Portugal, Journalism BA
