TESTIMONIALS

“This book is a worthwhile resource for individuals who want to understand and appreciate their own journey of life, including young people who are often bombarded by many demands and expectations from the wider community. Another key beneficiary of this book are parents who, even with the best intentions, do not get on with their children. This book provides insights that will assist them, and indeed their children, to know that not all is lost. The Academy will also benefit from this book, which is a condensed package of what psychology entails. Faith institutions that must provide services to the adherents as they grapple with the questions of life will be another key consumer of this work.” – Mary N. Getui, Professor, Department of Religious Studies, Catholic University of Eastern Africa, Nairobi, Kenya

“The activities are designed to be both educational and enjoyable, promoting an active and engaging learning process. Power of Developmental Psychology for Secondary School Teachers and Students is a must-have for educators and parents alike. It is a vital tool for nurturing the next generation of well-rounded, empathetic, and intellectually curious individuals. Dr. Ngozi’s visionary approach promises to transform secondary education in Africa and beyond, laying a strong foundation for a brighter future.” – NDE Irene Awemo. Educationist/Pedagogic Inspector/Founder of Schools of Professional Excellence – SCOPE, Cameroon
