Life can change in the blink of an eye, as Teacher Mo experienced when she was laid off as a personal assistant. As a single mother, the sudden loss of income left her stranded, frustrated, and fearful for her son’s future. But amid the uncertainty, Teacher Mo found hope with SDC.

Today, Teacher Mo has secured positions on two major online teaching platforms and runs Monica’s Online School, providing quality education to South African students.
