The teaching skills

The skills and ways we were taught was very good and practical.Even in universities we the students must put in 90% of the work(studying) but i think the lectures have made it very simple for me and actually 50% from me would even be more than enough.So the teaching skills are one of the most positive things about the school

About NUL

I have graduated from the National University of Lesotho. Is the oldest and biggest nation's University and one of the best. Though there are still a lot of issues in the functioning of the University, I would still consider it as one of the best in Lesotho. Definitely! I would recommend any one to study at NUL and I wish to do my Master Degree at NUL.

enriching and fulfilling

My experience at Yusuf Maitama Sule University Kano was enriching, fulfilling, or challenging. The institution provided me with quality education, and I enjoyed engaging lectures, extracurricular activities, Overall, it was a valuable chapter in my personal and professional growth.
