I am the above named person ageing twenty years old and a Kenyan Citizen. At the moment I live in Nairobi at Jamhuri Show Ground. I came from a humble family in western region Busia district. I came to know about the school after the campaign that was carried out in Nairobi city specifically at Jamhuri.Immediately after coming across the posta. I called the numbers that were on the Poster for more detail information. After two weeks later I was admitted.

The school is situated in Jamhuri showground, Kibera location. The aim of the school is to bring up the youths from humble family to fulfil their dreams. Which leads to raising their living standard. The school itself was started the year 2006. it offers the course of mass media at diploma level. The course takes three years. The school has a studio where productions take place. Since I was admitted in the school ready for education, until now we have covered lens , principles of TV colour, Camera operations, production over view and lighting for video. From the covered areas. I can work as camera operator and lighting technician from what l grasped during class lessons.
Despite of having covered all that work, I can recall camera operation and lighting
person only. Meaning that I have a weakness of not grasping all that we have learnt
from the lessons that we have attended.

This term, we should cover composition graphics, audio video recording, video editing , news and documentaries before the term elapse.

There is a good cooperation between the students in that when the teacher delays to
arrive, one leads the rest in reading the notes and explaining where necessary, the
best friend is Daniel who helps me when I am in need.

Our teacher is so strict when the students mess. He doesn’t tolerate nonsense during
the class time. He is harsh to any students who fail to complete his/her assignment.
The school is in a cool environment. My career is to be TV producer. I work to hard
in study and ask where I don’t understand so as to achieve my future prospects. As
per my training. I face difficulties in raising school fees as the fees is so
high. The training needs patience since the course duration is so
long.

Sincerely Yours

My name is Lilian, and I am a Kenyan Citizen aged 22 years old and I live in Kibera with my
family. I came to know this school by a neighbour who told me about it while he was in the 1st
semester. I live near the school. So I came by myself to find out more information and how I can
start. it has been always my dream to be a journalist.

The school has the equipment and we are being taught how to use some of them. It is inside The
Nairobi show ground, which is near my place and I usually manage to walk to the Academy and
cover my lessons.

I am now a student at this International Multimedia Academy where am learning to be a TV
Journalist or TV Presenter in future. I have achieved a lot because when I come I didn’t know
many things concerning TV journalism and TV production. But at least for now I can explain
some of the things, which I have been taught.

I have some personal weaknesses and difficulties in learning, but I know that with time I will
work them out and I am planning to know more in future. I am in good terms with my fellow
students and sometime we exchange knowledge and do some group discussion while the tea-
cher’s not around.

The teacher he is not that bad. I like the atmosphere of our school because you can not get
bored. It is cool and good for learning because of the weather and the climate. It is quite and
not like in tow with a lot if noise from cars etc.

I know in future I will be great because I will have know everything concerning production,
the media industry and I will achieve my goals and in my dream of wanting to become a
presenter.

 

Thank you
Yours Sincerely
