Not so long ago I remember my first day at Prestige Academy. Yes, I was nervous. The class was asked to introduce themselves and also say why they chose to study Bcom Business Marketing. As I was so shy and unfamiliar with the course myself, I prevented myself from giving a proper answer that I truly meant from the heart, I did not know what to say…
But today I do…Business Marketing is a fantastic subject that a person can study. It allows you to interact with society and work with them at the same time. Marketing is a very versatile field that touches on all the vital parts in Business Management as a whole and can most definitely allow an individual to diverse into many other career opportunities. Marketing allows room for expression of opinion, it is fun, vibrant, very interesting and it allows you to generate your ideas verbally and practically too.
I love my course simply because I thoroughly enjoy all my subjects and thanks to the most amazing lecturers I could ever ask for! J If I was told to choose a favourite lecturer I would say that is impossible. They are all excellent at what they do and they truly know how to keep lessons pleasurable and interesting.
Typical day in the Marketing class…
Mr Nel (Entrepreneurship Studies)…This lecturer literally has the best personality and sense of humour a person could ever possess. Ever heard a stupid joke and the only reason why you would laugh out loud is because of this one person in the room who has the funniest laugh ever??? Yes that’s him! His lessons are extremely interesting and gratifying. He loves sharing innovative ideas and you can be assured that he WILL remind you to pay your DSTV licence. Why? I think he is just cool like that.
Mrs Koekemoer (Information Systems) is the most considerate person you will ever meet. Although her subject is not easy, she makes things simple and keeps it to the point. She will try and help out wherever she can and will always give you the benefit of the doubt. Be aware of her freaky projector that goes crazy in lessons and take full advantage of the free periods given.
Mrs Burger (Communication) is the COOLEST lecturer; she even calls me “My Bru” and not Megan, LOL. She is a very pleasant lady who knows how to keep you awake in her lessons (You randomly get 10 minute breaks to jump into your “Nothing Boxes”). Mrs Burger is an accomplished lecturer who is confident at what she does, interacts very well with students and will always keep you updated on the latest news in our country.
Last but not least, Mrs Wiese (Business Marketing). Yes, be afraid of this, lady. She is crazy about Marketing, it is her passion and she has a great influence on the students in her class. The subject applies a lot of practical thinking and creativity, and she will definitely make it VERY CLEAR if she does not like the marketing of a product, but there is nothing wrong with constructive criticism. WARNING: “If Mrs Wiese likes something, she will want it and she will make sure she gets it.” So for future reference, never bring a newly designed product to class, unless you don’t want it back, SHE WILL TAKE IT from you!
My day at Prestige Academy starts and ends off by the warm presence from two very important people in the Reception area, Joey and Vanessa. Their friendly smiles and awesome vibe starts my day off on a very positive note, which is all I need to set me in the mood for some Marketing. Here at Prestige Academy, we are truly, one big happy family. They are involved with all their students and care about all their successful achievements, and how they work and motivate themselves to reach for the stars.
