You have given this little girl hope. I am grateful.
Time to re-buckle my shoes.

RaniOpe:



Thank you for taking the time to respond.

The reason for the outcry was because people I keep asking for information, make it feel like I have no future here because my course of study is non-stem. Someone said it to my face , that I was studying rubbish and all the opportunities are in stem.

I don’t see myself learning coding or going to nursing school , it’s not my passion. Not everyone wants to do stem. I have joy in my field of Education and the goal is tenure track professor or policy researcher.

I just glanced through a few pages of Macky’s thread , noticed he’s also in STEM and my hope got dashed again.

I am tired 😪

You can't but you can apply for a Canadian visa and get it. It's less than $200. My mum was visiting the US & we applied and she got 5yrs. So do try.

What part of the writing do you have issues with ?
Use of vocabulary and concepts ?
APA style ?

We use MLA.I haveproblem with structureand organization in writing

I think the basics is ; introduction, body and conclusion as we were taught.
Also make sure , each paragraph conveys an idea i.e ( if you are writing about 3 ideas , you will have a paragraph for introduction, 3 paragraph for the ideas (body) and a last paragraph for conclusion).

For the sentence structure, start with the main point (the first 2/3 sentences in the paragraph), so the readers know exactly what you’re writing about without having to read everything. Then the remaining sentences can be used to explain the first sentences.

Also re-read to ensure there is a logical flow in your words.

I don’t know if this helps and there are different types of writing (e.g a thesis and dissertation will be different, I assume that’s not what you need help with but assignments in class)

A tip : I always make my introductions catchy , so the reader has no option than to be intrigued. Though there is a school of thought that believes catchy introductions are cliches.

For majority of us that love to eat Nigerian foods and swallows, where do we order From?

Hi all - just wondering if there are any Nigerian or Africans in USA and living in the Midwest (Michigan preferably) and open to a trucking driver position. If you are or no anyone looking please contact me. Pay is decent and non-toxic work environment. CDL not required.

Compliments of the season

RaniOpe:


Hi.
To an extent. I am currently job searching. I have a question, how do you recognize companies that would allow you work with them for OPT?
Do I just apply to any company ?

Welcome back!

Quick question. I am a bit old school on this. I remember that there used to be US VISA lottery back in the days. Is this still on?

I came across this online:
https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Diversity-Visa/DV-Instructions-Translations/dv-2025-instructions-translations/DV-2025_Instructions-faqs.pdf

Looks like Nigerian are not eligible. What happens if you have citizenship of another country?

Cheers.

Yes other African countries are still eligible for DV. Nigeria is no longer eligible
DV lottery is more than just winning ..upon selection you still have to provide educational and birth documents.
So just having citizenship of another country isn't enough to
