🌟 Student Spotlight
We’re inviting new High School Ambassadors or IB graduates to write messages every week, so we can hear more student voices and IB experiences around the world. Today, we’ll hear from Daria, our High School Ambassador (HSA)!
Hey everyone!
I’m Daria, an IB Year 1 student in Cyprus and member of the Writing Team at IBlieve. Greetings to all members of our incredible IBlieve Community!
Despite the numerous challenges imposed by the pandemic, I hope that everyone is able to stay safe and healthy, above all!
Best of luck to IBY2 students taking their exams, and good luck to non-exam route students with the final stretch of their IB careers! Remember that balance is key in all aspects of life - after all, our biological nature is to achieve homeostasis, for all you biology students out there! ;)
Additionally, make the best out of every opportunity given to you. Keep a positive outlook on the decisions you make, and don’t forget to uplift each other throughout these challenging times!
Wishing everyone all the very best! If you ever want to reach out to someone, I am here for you! You can shoot me a message on Slack or through Instagram: @dash_g15
Regards,
Daria
